    Gemeenskapslede in

    Goodwood kan positie-

    we veranderinge te

    wagte wees.

    TydensCliveJustus,

    subraadvoorsitter, se

    onlangse subraadver-

    gadering het hy ver-

    slag gedoen oor die toe-

    komstige projekte wat

    onder andere die om-

    gewing van Good-

    wood, Elsiesrivier,

    Kalksteenfontein, Pa-

    row en Beaconvale se

    opgradering insluit.

    Bykomende gesubsi-

    dierde behuising vir

    1 000mense gaan in Elsiesriver-industria na-

    by die Elsiesrivierstasie gebou word.

    Volgens die laaste verslag is 28 terreine ge-

    identifiseer, waarvan twee vir die behui-

    singsprojek goedgekeur is.

    Dit is reeds bevestig dat befondsing vir die

    projek haalbaar is, maar dat nmaatskaplike

    vennoot nog nie belangstelling in die projek

    getoon het nie.

    Dit sal dus die prosedures vertraag en die

    huise sal eers volgende jaar gebou word.

    Daar is ook geld aangevra vir die opknap-

    ping en bou van n sport- en ontspanningsfa-

    siliteit in Valhallapark.

    Onderhandelings oor hierdie projek sal

    weer in November behandel word.

    Die junior stadsraad se verteenwoordigers

    het ook die vergadering bygewoon.

    Kesley Williams van die Horskool Elsies-

    rivier, voorsitter van die junior raad, het ook

    verslag gedoen oor hul

    projekte.

    Ons is tans besig om

    geld in te samel vir ge-

    stremdes en mense wat

    rolstoele benodig, s

    Williams.

    Abdul Muqtasid An-

    tulay (Horskool Cra-

    venby), Zhane Priemo

    (Horskool Raven-

    smead) en Beauretha

    Seagren (Goodwood-

    kollege) het ook hul on-

    derskeie subrade ver-

    teenwoordig.

    Daar is 24 verskil-

    lende subrade waaron-

    der die junior raaddien

    met 200 verteenwoordi-

    gers uit verskillende

    streke, het Williams bekend gemaak.

    Verder is tien bome aan die Horskool J.G.

    Meiring in Goodwood deur die Stad geskenk.

    Hierdie bome sal skadu aan die sportvelde

    bied. Bome sal ook in Ruyterwacht en Kalk-

    steenfontein opVrydag 27 September geplant

    word.

    Maar die goeie nuus hou nie hier op nie.

    Beaconvale het ook tans n nuwe afval-her-

    winningsterrein geword, waar gevaarlike

    FCS-gloeilampies, glas en blikkies in n her-

    winnings-igloo gestort kan word.

    Die voortbestaan van positiewe gemeen-

    skapsprojekte hang af van elke gemeen-

    skapslid. Die Stad nooi enigiemand wat met

    opbouende voorstelle vorendag kom, om di-

    rekmet ons in verbinding te tree, het Justus

    ges.

    An alleged drag-race organiser, who was

    driving at more than 200km/h on the N1,

    was arrested on Thursday 12 September.

    City of Cape Town spokesperson for traf-

    fic, Richard Coleman said an operation fo-

    cusing on illegal drag-racing yielded great

    success when officers arrested the suspect

    who they had been monitoring for some

    time. He was allegedly weaving through

    cars at high speed when traffic officers

    chased him all the way onto the M5 on

    Thursday evening. The suspect drove

    recklesslyuntil hewas stoppedby theoffic-

    ers just before the Athlone turn-off.

    Coleman says the police and traffic de-

    partment have been monitoring the sus-

    pect for some time as they were informed

    that he was constantly organising illegal

    races in Athlone, Grassy Park, Bellville

    and the Elsies River regions.

    We constantly played cat and mouse

    with him. He organised illegal races all

    over and we were trying to figure out

    where the next racewould be.While traffic

    officers were operating in the area they

    recognised the number plate of the vehicle

    and followed the car. At that time the sus-

    pectwas driving over the legal limit,Cole-

    man says. He added, the suspect was found

    to be in possession of a firearm and was

    under the influence of alcohol as well.

    He was arrested just after 21:15 and was

    taken to the Athlone police station where

    hewas chargedwith drunken and reckless

    driving.Constable Zita Norman, spokes-

    person of the Athlone police station says

    the firearm, which is licensed, was confis-

    cated by the police.

    The suspect appeared in the Athlone

    MagistratesCourt onFriday 12September

    and was released on bail.

    H

    ousebreaking, theft of a concretemix-

    er, ransacking of houses and daylight

    robbery.

    What has become of Goodwood?

    A recent report by the Goodwood police

    station revealed shocking information as

    crimes escalated far beyond what is expect-

    ed in only a weeks timeframe as criminals

    let loose in the area.

    On Thursday 19 September at 10:00 Con-

    stable Steven Drury reacted to a house-

    breaking call by a resident while it was in

    progress in Goulburn Street, Goodwood.

    Two suspects ransacked the garage of one

    of his neighbours in the street and left the

    premises, pushing a stolen wheelbarrow.

    Drury patrolled the area in search of the

    suspects and found them in Vanguard

    Drive.

    Drury arrested the suspects and took

    them to the Goodwood police station where

    they were questioned.

    Investigating their alibis the police

    phoned the owner of the house.

    He arrivedand identified the stolen items

    as his property.

    The 25- and 26-year-old suspectswhowere

    previously arrested appeared in the Good-

    woodMagistrates court the sameweek. On

    the same day four thieves decided to steal

    a cement mixer in Table View.

    Constable Siyabulela Adam monitored a

    radio announcement at 11:30 when a re-

    quest for the arrest of the suspects was giv-

    en.

    Arrests

    The suspects were allegedly driving a

    white Isuzu bakkie in Vanguard Drive.

    On the corner of Vanguard and Frans

    Conradie roads, Adam saw the bakkie with

    the cement mixer.

    He stopped the bakkie and arrested the

    four suspects for possession of stolen prop-

    erty.

    The suspects will appear in the Cape

    Town Magistrates Court soon.

    Earlier that week started with an arrest

    of a suspect on Monday 16 September after

    he had broken into a house in Hibiscus

    street in Tygerdal at about 12:00.

    Constable Vivian Fortuin spotted the

    man as he was walking out of the yard.

    A sliding door had been forced open and

    the house was ransacked.

    A television set and other equipment was

    packed, almost as if it was ready to be col-

    lected.

    W/O Jacques Pieters and W/O Quinton

    Nortje joined Fortuin and interrogated the

    suspect.

    They found that therewereoriginally five

    suspects who were working together.

    Further investigation revealed that four

    of the suspects were driving a Toyota Avan-

    za.

    They found out that these four suspects

    who were also in the house, were wearing

    school uniforms.

    These suspects driving the Avanza were

    apparently on their way to collect the fifth

    suspect who was in custody.

    The officers then went to the original

    scene of the crimewhere theywaited for the

    Avanza to arrive.

    And the suspects did not disappoint.

    They duly arrived on time to collect their

    partner and the rest of the stolen property.

    The five suspects all from Langa, aged be-

    tween 17 and 25 were arrested for house-

    breaking and appeared in the Goodwood

    Magistrates Court the next day.

    Goodwood police also want to urge the

    community to be on the look-out for three

    to five suspects who target houses.

    In another incident a man was arrested

    after trying to rob a woman of her posses-

    sions in broad daylight at Vasco station.

    Upgradeswill follow to theDeGrendel Sub-

    council area.

    This after the councillors and subcouncil

    manager together with De Grendel Sub-

    council chairman JamesVos toured the ar-

    ea to determine areas which are in need of

    upliftment. They visited council facilities,

    parks, halls, and other places which give

    cause for concern.

    The tour was an enlightening experi-

    ence. We had the opportunity to see where

    efficient work was being done and good

    services being rendered, but also to ob-

    serve the shortcomings and problems, and

    to better understand the challenges that

    faced some facilities, says Vos.

    Vos noted down a few aspects which will

    be changed in future:

    VIncreased dumping and littering on

    public open spaces.

    VVandalism and lack of regular mainte-

    nance of community centres.

    VUnauthorised increase of informal trad-

    ing activities which also results in haphaz-

    ard and dangerous vehicular movement

    along Plattekloof Road (M14) from Both-

    asig towards Panorama and along Old

    Paarl Road in Bellville.

    VOvergrown green open spaces in

    Doordekraal and especially the issue of the

    damsandusage of the footpaths in the area.

    VNew fencing at the Stikland Hospital

    precinct which will hopefully prevent

    squatting and dumping inside and around

    the complexes.

    These areas will be monitored by the rel-

    evant departments and the feedback to the

    council will determine what action will be

    taken.

    Vos also examined the areas surround-

    ing the Chevron Refinery situated in Plat-

    tekloof Road as the refinery and residents

    inBothasig andEdgemeadwitnessedabus-

    tle of activities due to its annual simulated

    accident.

    The exercise involved a large contingent

    of emergency services, law enforcement

    agencies, and Disaster Risk Management

    personnel.

    The exercise tested the preparedness and

    ability of the authorities to co-ordinate the

    off-site emergency management planning

    arrangements when responding to an inci-

    dent at a major hazard installation.

    This forms part of the annual wide-

    ranging exercises by the Citys Disaster

    Risk Management Centre to strengthen

    emergency and disaster response, Vos

    said.

    gende week slapelose nagte sou gee, het ek

    hom gevra of ek hom op film n paar vrae

    kon vra. En toe begin ons gesels...

    Vir drie ure het ek daar gesit en gesels

    met oom Koos, terwyl hy akkertjie na ak-

    kertjie stukkendbyt om iets in sy grommen-

    de maag te kry, en dan tot sy teleurstelling

    sien dat elke akker klaar vrot is.

    Ek kon nie langer dit verduur om n or-

    dentlike, intelligente, onskuldige mens s

    te sien nie en ek het vir hom n sakkie inko-

    pies gekry, n brood, n french polony, bot-

    ter, plastiek bottermesse, n hoender-mayo-

    sub, n pakkie tabak en vuurhoutjies, en n

    Coke. Dit klink pateties, maar dit het my

    R120 gekos. Hoe op dees aarde moes hy dit

    ooit kon bekostig?

    Hy het belowe hy gaan my bel (n ek my

    selfoonnommer met hom gedeel het), en

    eendag, dan gaan hy my Namakwaland toe

    vat, dr waar hy grootgeword het.

    Daar op die sypaadjie het ek hom agterge-

    laat en soos ek wegry, kon ek voel hoe ver-

    keerd dit is, want die sypaadjie is al wat hy

    het. Hy het my aan my oupa laat dink, en

    na die derde nag wat ek nie n oog kon toe-

    maak nie, nie kon aanvaar dat die lewe so

    wreed kan wees nie, moes ek n plan maak.

    Die beeldmateriaal was meer as goud

    werd, en tesame het ek en Hano besluit dit

    moet onmiddelik op die internet versprei

    word, en ons moes hulp kry vir oom Koos.

    Die terugvoering was oorweldigend. Baie

    mense het aangebied om weekliks n kos-

    pakkie te skenk,maar daar is een groot pro-

    bleem in die plan...oom Koos is haweloos,

    hoe moet hy weeklikse kospakkies ontvang

    as hy nrens het om dit heen te vat nie.

    Ons soek steeds sodat oom Koos sy laaste

    jare in rus en vrede kan deurbring. n Ka-

    mer, tuinwoonstel of selfs net stukkie n

    Recent heavy rainsmakes for full dams, but

    saving water is still important.

    This is the advice from subcouncil chair-

    man Clive Justus, who advised that water

    should be used sparingly to ensure that wa-

    ter restrictions do not occur in summer.

    At a recent subcouncil meeting, held on

    Thursday 19 September, he announced that

    the wet and cold weather is affecting many

    but that water must be used sparingly as

    winter is coming to an end.

    This in return means less rain for Cape

    Town.

    The water department, despite the dams

    currently recording in excess of 100 % ca-

    pacity, placed an exhibition in the Parow

    municipal office, with informative pam-

    phlets explaining the importance of saving

    water at all times.

    Themembers of the public, attending the

    subcouncil four-monthly meeting, quickly

    identified water leaks on their property or

    in public spaces and notifications have

    been forwarded to the maintenance depart-

    ment for repairs.

    With the threat of climate change likely

    to increase water scarcity even further, it

    is very important for us to understand our

    role in protecting natural water systems,

    and to conserve our precious water sup-

    plies.

    Water is vital for life, and the averageper-

    son cant live beyond five days without it.

    The city supplies water to more than

    900 000 households and businesses. These

    include more than 600 000 formal users

    consumers with a metered connection and

    around 150 000 backyarders and 120 000 in-

    formal dwellings that receive water

    through other connections.

    To supply this drinking water, the city

    has a system of 12 dams, 13 water treatment

    works, 138 reservoirs, 108 pump stations

    and a pipeline network that is 10 400km

    long.

    What goes in must come out, and remov-

    ing and treatingwastewater takes 23waste-

    water treatment works and marine out-

    falls, 377 pump stations and more than

    9 000 km of sewers.

    Making this all work takes the dedicated

    efforts of more than 3 300 city employees,

    and a budget of more than R3,6 billion a

    year which is about R3 200 per household

    per year.

    Yet, most people hardly give water a

    thought. They turn on the tap and take

    clean water for granted, Justus said.

    V Any water leaks can be reported directly by SMS

    to 31373.

    Vital to savewater

    for summer season

    Williams attended the Saving Water meeting in Parow.

    Mywyn lekkerder as kelders sn

    TINA BURGER

    @kaapse_kind

    n Plaaslike wynkenner deel sy wenresepte

    vir tuiswyn en reken di wyn is gesonder

    en lekkerder as enige wynwat op n winkel-

    rak gekoop kan word.

    Dries de Kock van Bothasig s dat menig-

    eennie bewus is van die sintetiese produkte

    wat deesdae by bekende wynkelders se wy-

    ne bygevoeg word nie.

    Ek het vir jare lank gaan kers opsteek

    by die jong manne wat wyn maak in Suid

    Afrika en Namibi en ek het besluit dat ek

    nie wyn s wil maak nie, s De Kock.

    Hy beweer dat hy telkemale gesien het

    hoe sakke preserveer- en kleurmiddels by

    die wynmaakproses bygevoeg word, en dat

    die oorspronklike manier van wynmaak

    verlore gegaan het.

    De Kock s nadat hy vir meer as ses jaar

    lanknavorsing gedoenhet oor outydsewyn-

    maaktegnieke het hy besluit om n boek,Op

    Bacchus se knie, saam te stel.

    Die boek bevat onkonvensionele resepte

    en maniere om wyn te maak soos jare gele-

    de.

    Die probleem is dat baie wynmakers

    deesdae kitswyne maak omdat die aan-

    vraag groot is. n Massa liters wyn moet in

    kort periodes ryp gedrk word, en die ver-

    ouderingsproses gaan verlore, s hy.

    Vandie kelderswaarDriesmeer oorwyn-

    maak geleer het, produseermeer as sesmil-

    joen liter wyn per jaar.

    Met oestyd, wat van die eerste week in

    Januarie tot die eerste week in Maart ge-

    skied, is daar nie baie tyd om soveel wyn

    op die ou manier te maak nie, s hy.

    Dit is toe dat Dries besluit het om sy eie

    wyn te produseer.

    Dit is derhalwe gesonder en slegs vir eie

    gebruik, s hy.

    En die wynmaakproses is maklik en be-

    kostigbaar, volgens Dries.

    Hy s mense dink dit is n ingewikkelde

    proses, maar dat hulle moontlik reeds oor

    90% van die toerusting beskik.

    Jy het onder andere n kan van 5 liter no-

    dig, suiker en gis. Dit is die basiese bestand-

    dele, s hy.

    Verder eksperimenteer hy met bestand-

    dele soos mielies, naeltjies, pietersielie,

    hops, wortels, rooibeet, akkerboomblare,

    roosblaar, pampoen, piesangs en rosyntjie

    en rys.

    Ek geniet dit om te eksperimenteer. Die

    wynmaakproses hoef nie so gesofistikeerd

    te wees nie, s hy.

    Al hierdie resepte vorm deel van die boek

    en bevat selfs tuisgemaakte bierresepte.

    Ek het ook n paar hengelaarsgrappe en

    ware staaltjies bygelas. Hierdie is waarlik

    n lekker stokperdjie wat die hele gesin kan

    geniet, s hy.

    Harte aangeraakmet inspirerende video

    TINA BURGER

    @kaapse_kind

    Tydens subraad vier se raadsvergadering

    moes sommige lede n traan wegpink.

    Op Donderdag 19 September het Clive

    Justus, subraadvoorsitter, harte aangeraak

    toe hy n inspirerende video vir die aanwe-

    siges vertoon het.

    Die opname handel oor die verskil wat

    Tygerberg-dienssentrum en Meals on

    Wheels in Parowaan 392 seniors en 1 330 be-

    nadeelde gemeenskapslede maak.

    Die barmhartige dade van Linda Louw

    wat aan die bestuur van die sentrum staan,

    het nie onopgemerk verby gegaan nie.

    Die raad het erkenning aan Louw gegee,

    wat tydens die vergadering n ere-sertifi-

    kaat ontvang het.

    Louw het haar toespraak afgesluit met

    woorde van bedanking aan haar personeel

    en elke gemeenskapslid wat bygedra het tot

    die sentrum se suksesverhaal.

    En met meer as 94 550 gebalanseerde

    warm eteswat die sentrum aan verskeie be-

    hoeftige families en kinders jaarliks voor-

    sien, behoort elke senior lid bedank teword.

    Koekie Lochner

    (72) van Parow is een

    van die hardwerken-

    de individue by die

    sentrum wat hand in

    eie boesem steek en

    daagliks fondsinsa-

    melingsprojekte ten

    bate van die sentrum

    aanpak.

    Ek het self in n

    woonstel gebly waar

    daar nie lopende wa-

    ter of ablusiegeriewe

    was nie, en ek weet

    hoe dit voel om

    swaar te kry. Ek was

    totaal en al geso-

    leerd van die ge-

    meenskap totdat die

    sentrum my die kans op n nuwe begin ge-

    gee het, s sy.

    Die sentrum bied warm etes asook emosi-

    onele-, fisieke- en psigologiese ondersteu-

    ning aan senior gemeenskapslede.

    Toe ek die eerste keer n warm bord kos

    by die sentrum te ete gekry het, was dit vir

    my soos poeding, s

    sy.

    Volgens Jan Frede-

    rick van der Berg, of

    Plankies soos baie

    hom ken, was sy reis

    in die lewe swaar en

    lank. Hy moet daag-

    liks n prostetiese

    been dra. Maar met

    die hulp van die sen-

    trumhethyweer n fa-

    milie gerf en nuwe

    vriende gemaak.

    En vir meeste van

    hierdie senior bur-

    gers is ondersteuning

    belangrik aangesien

    afsondering s n per-

    soon emosioneel kan

    knak. As gemeenskap moet ons fokus op

    die dinge wat ons kan verander. Indien ons

    n gesamentlike doel voor o het, sal ons

    waarskynlik ook meer vir mekaar omgee,

    s Justus. Justus is ook met die Norman

    Bernstein-toekenning vereer as Merriman

    Lion van die Jaar.

    Dries de

    Kock van

    Bothasig is

    n tuiswyn

    maker en

    glo sy wyn

    kan enige

    dag met

    bekende

    wynkelders

    se wyne

    kompeteer.

    Die ontwikkelingsprojek van Gregory-

    straat-park in Goodwood is volgens die

    Stad Kaapstad n stap in die regte rigting.

    Maar nie almal stem saam met die Stad

    se besteding van die wyksbegroting nie.

    Die park, ook bekend as Rohmstraat-

    park, sal ontwikkel word in ooreenstem-

    ming met die doelstellings van die ontwer-

    pershoofstad van die wreld vir 2014.

    Cecile Janse van Rensburg, wyksraads-

    lid, het R200 000 uit die wyksbegroting aan

    die multi-funksionele projek toegeken.

    Maar Chris Theron, voorsitter vanGood-

    wood se belastingbetalersvereniging, s dit

    is belaglik dat soveel geld aan nparkbestee

    word terwyl die paaie in nhaglike toestand

    is. Ons dra geen kennis van hierdie projek

    nie. Wat het geword van Goodwood-inwo-

    ners se mening oor die prioriteite in die

    wyk? vra Theron. Hy s dat R200 000 baie

    geld is om uit te gee aan die park-projek.

    Is dit nie beter dat die paaie in n rybare

    toestand is nie? En hoeveel geld gaan daar-

    na nog bestee word om die park in stand te

    hou? Intussen moet ons koes vir slaggate.

    Janse van Rensburg redeneer dat die

    plant van bome en die instandhouding van

    parke noodsaaklik is. En die Stad probeer

    om die voorbeeld te stel.

    Clive Justus het onder andere opDonder-

    dag 5 September tien bome geplant gedu-

    rende boomplantmaand.

    Justus en Janse Van Rensburg het ook

    die skoliere van Laerskool Goodwoodpark

    toegespreek oor gevaarlike koolstofdiok-

    siedvlakke en globale verwarming.

    Hierdie projek is n ruimte waar die

    plaaslike jeug en gesinne kan gaan vir ont-

    spanningsdoeleindes. Die openbare oop

    ruimte is aangrensendaanLaerskoolGood-

    woodpark, s Janse van Rensburg.

    On 12 September I was driving

    down Rothschild Boulevard at

    17:10 to Northlink College.

    Another road user and I

    stopped at the three-way

    intersection at Elvy Street and

    Rothschild Boulevard at the

    entrance of the Nationlink

    Plattekloof Retirement Village

    and waited for an elderly

    person to cross the road. As

    the uncle was busy crossing

    the double lane, I heard a

    motorcycle approaching from

    behind at a high speed and the

    cyclist made absolutely no

    effort to stop at the stop sign.

    He passed through the two

    stationary vehicles then passed

    us and proceeded through the

    intersection at a very high

    speed, almost hitting the poor

    pedestrian.

    I could not believe what was

    happening as I honked my

    hooter to warn the poor elderly

    person of the approaching

    motorcycle when I realised

    that he was not going to stop.

    I followed the bike to where

    he stopped at the daycare

    centre/Panorama Primary

    School in Malmesbury Street,

    and took a photograph of his

    motorcycle.

    It is unacceptable that a

    young person could behave like

    this and that someone could

    act so irresponsibly with no

    respect for the law and life of

    another person or even for his

    own. I asked myself whether

    this is due to plain stupidity, a

    lack of proper parenting or just

    an irresponsible teenager

    having no respect for the law.

    The question remains how

    many times has he done this

    and how many times has he

    gotten away with it?

    I remember a few months

    ago TygerBurger had letters

    about residents from the same

    area complaining about traffic

    officers clamping down on

    residents for not stopping at

    the stop signs and whether

    they dont have any other more

    serious matters to attend to.

    No excuse for

    reckless driving

    In the TygerBurger of 21

    August there was an article

    about rubble being dumped all

    over the city (Swaar boetes

    wag op di morsjorse). Read-

    ers were asked to report any

    incident and it implies that

    action will be taken.

    So, I then phoned 021 596 1999

    and a lady answered the phone.

    I explained the problem, gave

    the address and when I was

    finished, I got the following

    reply: Now what do you want

    us to do?

    No wonder citizens are

    reluctant to report anything

    with such a stupid reply.

    Is this the competence level

    of staff employed by the

    council?

    FRUSTRATED

    Goodwood

    Council staff leftme

    scratchingmyhead

    Today their is a large percent-

    age of people renting flats, so

    for most of us, we cant escape

    being right in each others

    faces.

    Sad but true, but where do

    we bridge our differences in

    order to find common ground

    and live at peace with each

    other? Mutual respect. Yes,

    mutual respect is clearly a

    choice to be made.

    Ive been renting for 11 years

    and its clear that some people

    just have no regard for others.

    Dont people realise that

    disturbing the peace is a

    Showsome respect

    to receive respect

    In response to Yendors praise

    of our postal services (SMS,

    TygerBurger, 18 September) I

    have the exact opposite experi-

    ence.

    In the last year I have not

    received several letters, posted

    overseas and domestically. One

    letter posted airmail in Germa-

    ny in January this year, finally

    made it to my letterbox six

    months later. I guess I should

    be thankful that I received it at

    all! I regularly have to chase

    municipal accounts and tele-

    phone accounts, only to find

    out that they were posted ages

    ago. It once took a municipal

    account almost three weeks

    from Cape Town to Durbanville.

    I often find wrongly ad-

    dressed mail in my letterbox.

    Certainly not world class

    service I would say.

    SLICE OF LIFE

    Sheer power of

    social media

    needs restraint

    The benefits of social media have been

    placed firmly in the spotlight after Table

    Views Lona Marais was allegedly

    threatened by a 4x4 driver, spat on and

    nearly shoved into oncoming traffic.

    Her husband reported this horrendous

    episode on an internet forum and soon

    Facebook was swarming with comments.

    Everybody who could, was suddenly

    looking at the road for this silver 4x4.

    The few overworked police officers

    eyes multiplied exponentially so to speak,

    and soon the public attention was too big

    for anyone to ignore including the

    driver of the 4x4.

    He handed himself in at the Table View

    police station just a few hours later. The

    key to a safe neighbourhood seems to be

    in the hands of the forumites. Dr Martin

    Luther Kings quote: There is power in

    unity and there is power in numbers is

    particularly apt in this regard.

    The crime statistics indicate that the

    need for the public and the police to

    unite has never been greater.

    The only drawback of a burgeoning

    social media is the dangers posed by

    subjective, uninformed and accusatory

    comments.

    These comments often go unchecked

    and can lead to vigilantism.

    The suspicion that someone might have

    been guilty of committing a crime could

    easily turn into a certainty.

    Until everyone embraces that old

    saying innocent until proven guilty,

    social media will have to be carefully

    regulated.

    that most are not aware of this.

    Ive realised through observa-

    tion that most of the problems

    are due to people engaging in

    alcohol.

    To all offenders out there, I

    will not silence my mouth, my

    home is my sanctuary of peace

    where Im raising two future

    leaders for Kingdom purposes

    and I will not allow you to

    engage in your foolish behav-

    iour until the early hours of

    the morning; my sleep and the

    sleep of my respectful neigh-

    bours is just not up for grabs

    and I will not stand for your

    foul language.

    I feel that its an individuals

    responsibility to choose for

    oneself mutual respect, once

    chosen I personally feel that we

    can live in harmony with each

    other. See yourself in the face

    of your neighbour and let peace

    be your common goal. Some-

    give respect dont expect to

    Ruyterwachts Abigail An-

    drews is one of 11 finalists

    in the Shoprite Groups an-

    nual TOPstars perform-

    ance competition.

    Abigail, a trainee man-

    ager at Checkers Durban-

    ville, competed against

    ShopriteCheckers employ-

    ees across South Africa as

    well as Mozambique, Zam-

    bia and Nigeria for a spot

    in the finals.

    This is the first singing

    competition Abigail has

    entered, and while shes keeping her song

    for the finals a surprise, she says: Im not

    bound to one genre, if I find that I have a

    liking for a song and I can sing it then I give

    it my best.

    I dont have a favourite artist as I have

    a liking of many different individuals in

    how they sing a song, she adds.

    Abigail is preparing for her performance

    at the Grand Finale which will be held at

    the Good Hope Centre on Saturday 5 Octo-

    ber with 2010 Idols runner up, Lloyd Cele,

    actress, singer and TV star, Thembi Seete,

    and Pam Andrews of Rhythm City.

    The Shoprite TOPstars competition has

    been running for seven years and offers the

    opportunity for ordinary shop floor work-

    ers to shine. The aim of the competition is

    to expose employees to goal setting and em-

    powerment.

    I heard all about the competition when

    I startedwith Checkers, Abigail says, add-

    ing: I got all excited and said there and

    then I will enter the compe-

    tition next year.

    My passion for singing

    gave me more ammunition

    to take part, Abigail says.

    I thought to myself I

    can do this andtake this on

    as a challenge and a won-

    derful experience.And that

    is exactly what this TOP-

    stars road trip has been

    thus far, she says.

    It has and still is an awe-

    some and very overwhelm-

    ing experience due to all

    the support I am getting

    from everyone, Abigail

    says of competing in the

    competition.

    As time is coming closer towards the

    grand finale event the excitement is beco-

    ming greater as the preparation is a jour-

    ney on its own, Abigail says.

    Finalists of the Shoprite TOPstars com-

    petition are being flown to Cape Townwith

    beachfront accommodation, exciting ex-

    cursions during their first weekend in Ca-

    pe Town, and then aweeks vocal coaching,

    performance coaching, stage craft training,

    and grooming for the event night.

    the Shoprite TOPstars Facebook page.

    Expect some nostalgia when British pop

    group, Smokie, performs at the GrandWest

    Grand Arena on Saturday.

    TygerBurger spoke to Terry Uttley, the

    bassist and vocalist for the band who are

    known for hits like Living Next Door to Al-

    ice, Lay Back in the Arms of Someone,

    Mexican Girl, For a Few Dollars, Nee-

    dles and Pins and If You Think You Know

    How to Love Me.

    Living next door to Alice is arguably

    one of the bands biggest hits here in South

    Africa. The song, which was written by

    Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman was origi-

    nally released by anAustralian group called

    New World in 1972.

    Uttley talks about how Smokie decided to

    record the song in a studio in Los Angeles,

    USA.

    Terry says: We were just talking about

    our upbringing in Yorkshire and Mike

    Chapman, our producer, was talking about

    hisupbringing inAustralia andwewere just

    having a lazy day.

    Chapman was recounting how he started

    songwriting and told them about a song he

    had written for NewWorld. He sang it, and

    when he got to the chorus we all took our

    parts because it had been a minor radio hit

    in England, he recalls.

    It was so memorable, Uttley adds.

    He explains that after hearing them sing

    the chorus Chapman said: Thats it, weve

    got to record this.

    Wewent ah, no,we dont dowe and shes

    become our flagship basically, out of a

    chance conversation, Uttley says.

    Smokies last album, Take a Minute, was

    released in August 2010, but Uttley says fans

    can expect something new in the not too dis-

    tant future.

    Were actually five songs into a new al-

    bum, he says.

    Today the band is made up of Martin Bull-

    ard on keyboards, lead guitarist, Mick Mc-

    Connell, Steve Pinnell on drums,Mike Craft

    on leadvocals andrhythmguitarwithUttley

    on bass. The quintet will be in Cape Town

    at theGrandWestGrandArena onSaturday,

    the first stop on their SA tour.

    V Tickets for the show cost R175 to R575 and are

    Two lovely dogs in the care of the

    Fisantekraal Animal Welfare (FAW) are

    now ready for their loving new homes.

    Fun-loving Eddie, who is close to one

    year old now and has been with the FAW

    since he was a puppy, is still hoping for a

    forever home.

    Devon has also been in the care of the

    FAW for some time. He is one year old and

    loves to play. He is medium to large and

    would suit an active household.

    Depression is not about just feeling low,

    and will not disappear by just pulling

    yourself together. It is a medical condi-

    tion, and aswith other biological illnesses,

    it requires treatment and medication. For

    various reasons, it is still an illness which

    is not spoken about openly in society.

    ber, YOU, DRUM and Huisgenoot together

    recognition of symptoms and the neces-

    sary treatment can increase a depression

    sufferers general quality of life.

    Much more: it can save lives, as the ter-

    minal, fatal consequence of this biological

    disease, suicide, is an even bigger taboo.

    thon or the 10 kmwalkathon in the beauti-

    Kuils River Hospitals secret heart weapon

    Lou Hofmeyr

    MICHELLE LINNERT

    @linnertmb

    K

    uils River Hospital recently became

    Africas first and only accredited ad-

    vanced heart care facility.

    This accolade was bestowed on the hospi-

    tal by the international Adult Congenital

    Heart Association (ACHA).

    The hospitals secret heart weapon?When

    Dr Lou Hofmeyr, an adult congenital and

    structural heart disease cardiologist from

    Milnerton, joined the hospitals state-of-the

    art cardiac unit, the SA Endovascular Prac-

    tice.

    This afforded the Netcare Kuils River

    Hospital (NKRH) the accreditation, said

    Karen Eagle, the hospitals spokeswoman.

    Advanced

    The distinction between any other hospi-

    tals cardiac unit and the one now functional

    in Kuils River, is the fact that they offer ad-

    vanced cardiology.

    And it was Hofmeyrs completion of an 18

    month fellowship in 2012 thatmeant the hos-

    pitalmet all the criteria to obtain the accred-

    itation which made it the only one on the

    continent with this honour.

    NKRH is the only facility in Africa to of-

    fer advanced cardiology recommended by

    the ACHA, Hofmeyr said.

    He explained that a number of require-

    ments had to bemet to becomeAfricas lead-

    er in ACHD. These included having an ex-

    tended medical staff including surgeons, in-

    tensive care specialists, imaging and

    anaesthetic backup, as well as nursing staff,

    high care and ICU facilities. Finally a struc-

    tural heart and interventional cardiologist,

    such as himself specialising in ACHD.

    A multi-specialised group of practition-

    ers allowing the practice to perform compre-

    hensive medical and interventional cardio-

    logical services, he said.
