ONLY E MAIL COMMUNICATION WILL BE DEALT WITH THANK YOU ++++++ It is not life and wealth and power that enslave men, but cleaving to life and wealth and power. Buddha (c 563 - 483 BCE) ++++++++ We do not receive something unless we give thanks for it. The very action of saying thank you, and meaning it, opens up the spirit to a true sense of appreciation. In giving thanks, something moves inside the center of our spirits and allows the wonder of what has been done for us to invade us. +++++ 1) NOT TOO MUCH TO YAHOO ABOUT HERE TODAY !! 2) NOTICES 3) ROSES AND RASPBERRIES 4) CONGRATULATIONS 5) CONDOLENCES 6) PETS 7) BULAWAYO NEWS 8) GWERU AND HARARE NEWS 9) WINING AND DINING 10) ACCOMMODATION OUT OF ZIMBABWE 11) ACCOMMODATION - HOUSES / FLATS / BUSINESS PREMISES 12) VEHICLES / BOATS / CARAVANS 13) LIFTS WANTED AND OFFERED 14) SEEKING FRIENDS 15) SITUATIONS VACANT/ WANTED 16) SERVICES 17) HEALTH AND BEAUTY 18) TUITION 19) MISCELLANEOUS FOR SALE 20) TIDBITS +++++ Not much to Yahoo about here today !! Morning Mirror has been comfortably using Yahoo Groups for several years now and for that I thank the Yahoo team most gratefully. But they inflicted mortal damage on us last week. Somehow our overseas group and mailing list of some 4500 Morning Mirror subscribers disappeared into thin air. Thankfully the local Zimbabwe servers still have most of the local subscribers intact. The Yahoo powers that be sent an automated response stating that we had done something which contravened their rules and regulations !! Now come on, sweet little old innocent Morning Mirror ? We are as pure as driven snow, especially when I compare ourselves to other Yahoo groups !! And on appeal they are not prepared to even give us the time of day, unless we go to litigation. For some five years, possibly more, Morning Mirror has raised funds and raised awareness for the elderly in Bulawayo. We have had the odd political contretemps but only when really angry, otherwise, we have been sweet as sugar and have tried to jolly along in spite of the hardships that we have had to endure as a country. The Mirror has raised a considerable amount of money for the Bulawayo Community, not only has money gone to the elderly but also to the animals, the destitute and the orphaned. The Mirror website is run by the dearest young man in the UK. He is awfully camera shy so I will not embarrass him, but without him and without HeeHoo this venture would definitely not exist. We have nearly managed to find a suitable replacement for the Yahoo distribution system, and my special Cyber HeeHoo has tried tirelessly for days to find a solution. The only way forward so far has been to add subscribers to a new distribution centre at just ten subscribers a day (that is all that one is allowed) so at 4500 subscribers, you might just get your next Morning Mirror in two years time !! Bad bad Yahoo Groups, hang your heads in shame. +++++++++++++ 2) NOTICES STONECROFT MINISTRIES invites you to another as - u -r The topic this month is:- CHILDREN'S THEME PARTIES.

Carriages: 10.00 p.m. Glazunov's Raymonda is a full-length romantic ballet, the last in which Petipa participated, and this lavish Bolshoi production draws on his original choreography. "Natalya Bessmertnova is a charmingly graceful heroine and she's well partnered by her elegant Knight, Yuri Vasyuchenko, but it is the villainous Sheik, sinisterly portrayed by Gedminas Taranda, who steals the show...Undoubtedly this is the Bolshoi at their peak, and the orchestral playing is first class, as is the recording. This is indispensable for ballet lovers." (Penguin Guide) A supper will again be available to order on this occasion. The menu is available from the Academy and bookings should be made there or to music@gatorzw.co.uk no later than lunchtime on Thursday 18 June. Tuesday 16 June : Luis Alberto Llaneza.(baritone), Jeanette Micklem (piano) Robert Sibson Hall at 7.30 p.m. Luis Alberto Llaneza is on his first visit to Zimbabwe. "Born in 1964 in Turon, he studied at the University of Oviedo, did repertoire training with Gyuiar Prender in Budapest and attended master classes with Alfredo Kraus and Victoria de los Angeles. The emphasis of his repertoire lies with Spanish music and encompasses classical and chamber music as well an extensive coverage of the Zarzuela genre. His many performances have taken him to all countries in Western as well as Eastern Europe, the United States and South America. The composer Manuel Garcia Morante has written many songs especially for him, celebrating for instance the lyrical work of Fernando Garcia Lorca, with a world premiere in Prague in 1996. Luis lectures on vocal music at various universities, gives master classes at European and American Conservatories and is involved in Musicological Research." Jeanette Micklem is very well known to us all and we are delighted that she is able to partner our Spanish visitor on this concert tour. The programme, entitled Las Dos Orillas (The Two Coasts), "is a musical voyage through Spanish and Latin American poetry set to music of the past three centuries. The first part of the concert includes works by Granados, Falla, Rodrigo and Ginastera and the second is dedicated to Zarzuela, the genuinely Spanish genre which dominated the theatrical scene for two hundred years." Booking at the Academy: tickets: US$3.00/R30.00 - free to subscribers and Red Carpet members Friday 19 June : Wagner: Die Walküre - Acts I & II Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. - Carriages: 10.15 p.m. The series of DVDs of the complete Ring cycle has started and this is the second instalment. However, there is a change of plan! The majority of those interested in seeing the operas is somewhat intimidated by their sheer length, especially on a winter evening, so we have decided to split them into more manageable chunks by breaking them over two evenings, most of which will last around two-and-a-half hours with the usual supper break. The exception is the first part of Götterdämmerung which is an unbroken two-hour span so will begin at 7.30 and be shown without an interval. The plan is now as follows: Friday 3 July: Die Walküre Act III/Siegfried Act I at 6.30 p.m. Friday 17 July: Siegfried Acts II & III at 6.30 p.m. Friday 31 July: Götterdämmerung: Prologue & Act I at 7.30 p.m. [N.B.] Friday 14 August: Götterdämmerung: Acts II & III at 6.30 p.m. Monday 22 June : Bach Robert Sibson Hall at 5.15 p.m. A film in the BBC Great Composers series narrated by Kenneth Branagh Friday 26 June : Gilbert & Sullivan: The Mikado Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. There will be a supper interval. Carriages: 10.00 p.m. "Wit, ingenuity and a veritable riot of colour and restless spectacle make the Australian Opera production of The Mikado an experience designed to seduce the eye, charm the ear and tickle the rib." [The Sydney Morning Herald] MUSICAL WINE-TASTING: One of last year's especially successful events was the Starry Soir e, the musical wine-tasting. There will be another such evening on Saturday 11 July. Full details will be announced shortly but please make a note of the date NOW!

I am sure many families in Bulawayo are aware of Owen's car accident a number of years ago. Owen's recovery was through prayer and a staffie dog known as "Teddy" which Owen was given shortly after his accident. Teddy died on the 2nd June - Owen's greatest companion for eight years. It was through "Teddy" a miracle dog that Owen began to walk and talk again. Owen is devastated as animal lovers would understand - he was more than just a dog to Owen.

I have an Executive Secretarial Diploma from Speciss College (1986). Certificates, references and C.V. are available to view. My employment history involves many years experience as a top flight legal secretary. The nature of this work is such that a high degree of competency, accuracy and intelligence is required. I am able to work with little or no supervision and am well presented. I have experience in Word Perfect (and the like), Excel, Internet and Email and am able to assimilate new programmes easily. I would be interested in P.A. work or helping to run a small business concern or department within a larger Company.

I also have approximately 5 years experience in Sales and Marketing but would wish to apply that knowledge in a non-selling capacity such as training, product promotion etc, as opposed to being out in the field. My strengths involve dealing with people from all walks of life. I commit happily and I believe in compassion, integrity and ethics.

R 5000.00 0913055483/245815/0912321881 +++++ The Flame Lily Weeps Ross G. Cooper releases a unique autobiography, which reveals his perspectives on the poignant issues in the country's transition from a British colony to an independent, one-party state. This unique autobiography describes the life of a white Zimbabwean growing up in Rhodesia, Zimbabwe-Rhodesia and subsequently after the attainment of independence on 18th April 1980, in Zimbabwe, and, thereafter, his move and settling in the UK. It provides a comfortable, quick read and is not meant to be an exhaustive, family, historical or political account. Instead, it was born from a desire to reveal and elucidate the perspectives and truth of poignant issues in the country's transition from a British colony to an independent, one-party state. This book gives an insight into the build up to the political and economic anarchy that has thrown Zimbabwe into a financial abyss and that transformed the bread basket of Africa - a one time flourishing country into a land ravaged by hunger, disease and poverty.
