NOTICES


May this New Year be a marker
On the road to brighter days
Though at first things may seem darker
God might move in awesome ways


EDITH DULY NURSING HOME
To Our Generous Benefactors.
On behalf of the Edith Duly Nursing Home I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those generous people and organisations who have helped keep the Home operating and viable during the course of the past 12 months.

Without your overwhelming generosity the Home would have struggled to remain open.

In particular we would like to thank ZANE, The Pensioners Fund, AGED-AID UK, Friends of Messina and Louis Trichardt, Hannes Botha, and Hands On Zimbabwe. Numerous other donors, too many to mention, have also helped in so many important ways to keep the institution running.

A special mention however, must be made of the generous advertisers in the Morning Mirror.

Over the past 12 months donations for advertising in the Mirror have raised many millions of dollars. ( A detailed record of all donations is available for inspection at the home).

Through the ongoing generosity of Morning Mirror readers, we were able to purchase provisions, provide for the upkeep of essential equipment and make available various amenities so essential for the running of this home which provides shelter and hospitalisation for approximately 80 patients each month, many of whom have no independent means of support.

Our grateful thanks also go to Eley Education for assisting with collections and to the team at Datvest for receipting, listing and accounting for all donations no matter how large or small.

Whitestone School celebrates its 65/25th Anniversary in 2007

Whitestone School was first opened as a primary school for boys in 1942. It closed in 1976 but was reopened in 1982, this time as a co- ed primary school.
Throughout its history, the positive and vibrant spirit of the school has lived on, maybe more so now than ever and because of this it has been decided that we need to celebrate the 65/25 Anniversary in style.
Besides holding Anniversary celebration events, we would very much like to hear from as many Old Whitestonians as possible. We want to find out about interesting events that may have occurred during your time at the school, we want to compile lists of your names and contact details, dates you were at the school and where and what you are doing now.
If you are an Old Whitestonian, please write to us at whitesto@mweb.co.zw and tell us about yourself. Someone on the Anniversary committee will reply to your email and give you details on Anniversary celebration events, current activities at the school and we will try to answer any other queries you may have in relation to the school and it's pupils. Do you know of any Old Whitestonians world wide? Please forward this letter to them. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
The Anniversary Committee

PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO
P.O.BOX 2360 - BULAWAYO

A NIGHT AT THE OPERA
Tickets for a Night at the Opera will be available from the Academy from mid-morning tomorrow, Friday 5 January and from the Bulawayo Club from Monday 8 January.
However, I'm afraid that we grievously under-estimated Club prices for the second half of January. They have doubled since November so the cost of the evening including a three-course dinner will be $18 000.00 and not the lower figure we rather optimistically mentioned in the previous newsletter.
Just to remind you, the opera in question is Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro in a performance featuring Hermann Prey as Figaro, Mirella Freni as Susanna and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau and Kiri te Kanawa as the Count and Countess with the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Karl Böhm. Someone commented that it must be quite an old recording given those names! Indeed it is, just over thirty years to be precise as it was recorded in 1976, but I've seen it twice and can guarantee that both sound and picture quality are of a high standard and the performance superb.
The opera will be shown at the Bulawayo Club on Friday 19 January 2007 and the approximate timetable is as follows:
· Bar opens at 5.15 p.m.
· Acts 1 & 2 : 6.00 p.m.
· Dinner : 7.45 p.m.
· Acts 3 & 4 : 9.00 p.m.
· Finish: 10.30 p.m.
As I've said, the evening will cost $18 000.00 including a three-course dinner ($9 000.00 to Red Carpet subscribers) and tickets (in the form of a programme with synopsis and an interview with the director Jean-Pierre Ponnelle) will be available from both the Academy and the Club. Bookings must be made by 1.00 p.m. the day before, Thursday 18 January, but preferably rather earlier. Club members can charge the evening to their accounts in the usual manner but must make a booking and should collect their tickets/programmes from either the Club or the Academy.
Best wishes as always,
Michael Bulivant

Herewith final results for 2006 and we hope to keep you updated on a monthly basis on league results for 2007.Please note that if a fish was released the angler receives 5% of the total weight of each fish.

Hi Guys,

Just in case you didn't know, our wonderful new South African Cricket star, Paul Harris, is one of us!!!!!!!!

He is the son of Dee (nee Lattey) and Mark Harris. Mark is the Pastor of the Valley Christian Church right here in Fish Hoek, and took our Rememberance Day service. Mark himself had his National colours for Athletics.

Mark is ex Prince Edward and I am not sure which school Dee and her sister Val went to, but as far as I can remember they are from Bulawayo. I do know that they were fantastic Basketball players. Paul is a really "good kid", he deserves all the success he is enjoying, and all us Fish Hoek Zimbos are absolutely bursting with pride.

I work here in Phalaborwa. It is great to see that Paul Harris is of Zimbabwean descent, please don't forget that Dale Steyn is also of Zimbabwean descent so we have two guys in the squad with this amazing blood in their veins. What more can we say !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Regards,

Schalk Steyn (Ex Kadoma/Kwe Kwe )
Dale's VERY proud Dad.
For those of you who missed the cricket,These two kids played the most incredible cricket today. I was bursting with pride, and then when the International Commentator remarked on how well mannered they were, and what fantastic Sportsmen they are, I thought "Well what did you expect mate?"
In fact, Dale played so well I am convinced he originates from the Mutare/Odzi Steyns.
Well done Guys!

INNS OF ZIMBABWE
New Year Message from the Chairman
Compliments of the season to you all - I hope your festive season was a great one and that you enter 2007 with determination to succeed and to meet all the challenges of present-day life head on!

We in the Inns wish you much success and much happiness this year. Our festive season was a superb one - we were very busy at all our Inns and we were pleased with our Christmas and New Year's Eve events.

The rains have brought a fresh, green look to the countryside and have boosted spirits somewhat and we go into the new year determined to build on past success and provide all our guests with even higher standards of service. We look forward to being of service to you and to seeing you at our Inns many times during the coming 12 months.

One thing I would like to say is that those of you intending to join us for holiday periods should book as early as possible to avoid being turned away - many folk were unable to get into our Inns during last year's holiday periods (especially Christmas) and the answer is to get your booking in as soon as you can.

Our website, www.innsofzimbabwe.co.zw, gives you a detailed INNsight into each of our units and also links you to our affiliates, " Friends of the Inns", in planning your holiday within Zimbabwe and for Zimbabweans wishing to holiday in South Africa, too.

Mica the Parrot FOUND

Thank you so much for forwarding and for keeping a look out.

I am very happy to tell you that we have found Mica. He flew quite a way from our house and was found at the top of our road.

He was a bit soaked because of the rain and very grumpy, but we managed to get him out the tree and back home.
This is his second great escape since we arrived here and Mica has now had his wing feathers cut.
Mica was enjoying becoming quite the Bulawayo Houdini pro, hopefully this will be the last excursion!! Thank you all again!!
Lee, Rory and Mica ex-Houdini!!
