Morning Mirror is a publication run for the benefit of Bulawayo's only geriatric and frail care home - the Edith Duly Nursing home ++++ 1) Editorial A Girl's Best Friend is her Hair Stylist. Visiting one's hairstylist today is a significant part of a girl's life. When I was a young TV star I spent far too many hours sitting with Roy and David Brassington in their Salon in Treger House. To my mind 'Life is too short to waste it under a hairdryer!!' Mum used to go to have her hair washed and styled every single week come rain or shine. Salon Mona Lisa it was for half a century!! She had that beautiful auburn hair that hardly went grey at all. You were allowed to smoke in salons in those days and darling Mom would settle comfortably under the dryer, puffing away, her hair a mass of red plastic curlers under a net. She would catch up with the glossy magazines and make shopping notes on the back of her Peter Stuyvesant cigarette box...Rows and rows of similarly attired ladies, all under hoods, enjoying their weekly treat!! Nowadays its so much easier, just wash ones tresses in the shower daily, a cut and blow-wave every six months, highlights and roots touched up at the same time...Not exactly in and out in a flash but thank goodness we can now avoid that hideous hood hairdryer!! I can even remember as far back as metal hair curlers before the plastic era took over, my goodness they could burn!! Our teenage Sundays were spent sitting in the sun to dry our hair, then for my sixteenth I got a portable hood hairdryer, and so our house on Sundays became very popular. Possibly the worst part of our salons in days gone by, were the tinting torture instruments. No one is ever satisfied with the colour of her hair, and so much money is spent on highlights, lowlights, root cover ups and the like. Nowadays the salons reply on good old sheets of tin foil, but we oldies were forced to use the 'ye old rubber bathing cap' torture method. A tight rubber cap was pulling painfully over one's head with much grunting and groaning. Said cap had been punched with an inordinate amount of small holes, through which, tiny clumps of hair would be pulled, excruciatingly, with the used of a steel crochet hook!! Yes, there were tears, there were swearwords, especially for girls with long tresses, it was a painfully arduous, ghastly experience for the stylist and the client!! I look forward to seeing what new innovations the scientists have for us in future salons!! Virtual appointments somehow But it still rather delicious to catch up with the local gossip at the stylist. Not of course with the Maestro Coiffeur who is sworn to secrecy, but with the improvers and the other clientele who have to talk over the sound of the hair dryer. ++++ WATCHDOG Toulon Investments (Pvt) Ltd t/a PHC Pallet Sales and Hire Mobile: Lawton Mwedziwendira 0774884216 Email: lmwedziwendira@phcpallets .co.zw Toulon Furniture Co Quality, custom made furniture for all budgets and lifestyles Items include but are not limited to Patio Set, Garden Furniture, Restaurant Tables and Chairs, Wine Racks, Bird Boxes.

HAPPY VALLEY SERIES 2 Eighteen months have elapsed and while investigating a bizarre case of sheep-rustling, Catherine discovers the corpse of prostitute Lynne Dewhurst, Tommy Lee Royce's mother. Improbably, Catherine finds herself a suspect in the case because of her animosity toward Royce. Royce, now imprisoned, also blames Catherine for Lynn's death and plots revenge from behind bars even though it soon becomes clear that a serial killer is at work in the valley. Meanwhile, a detective sergeant, John Wadsworth is blackmailed by Vicky Fleming, his mistress, who tells him to either pay her a ransom each month or leave his wife and children. - All in all, it was just brilliant telly. [Daily Express] - The more lurid moments are constantly offset - and sometimes combined - with some neat comedy and plenty of deft humanising touches. [The Spectator] - Just because it's believable and human doesn't mean it's mundane or boring. There is still plenty going on: misery, splitting up, plus a cracking cop show, and even a few good laughs. [The Guardian]] - The plot is already full of suspense and possibilities. Performances were uniformly excellent. [Daily Telegraph] Admission- US$2.00/$5.00 the series [free to Film Members] FRIDAY 22 SEPTEMBER AT 6.30 P.M. NIGHTS AT THE OPERA - 2 Historian Lucy Worsley explores how history and opera go hand in hand and in this second programme she moves to Paris for Carmen and then considers La Boheme, The Ring and Salome. - This brilliant show flitted from Covent Garden to Paris, Bayreuth and Munich in pursuit of the history of opera. [The Arts Desk] - Lucy Worsley's Nights at the Opera is a history of dramatic art form for those who think they don't like it! [The Telegraph] DON'T FORGET TO DRESS FOR THE OCCASION! Admission- US$2.00 [free to Red Carpet Members] FRIDAY 29 SEPTEMBER AT 6.30 P.M. LE CORSAIRE - BALLET Set in the exotic surroundings of the Ottoman Empire and with a narrative encompassing abduction, murder and shipwreck, Le Corsaire is a swashbuckling pirate drama that delights for i's spectacular nature and which includes some of the most bravura male dancing in the ballet repertoire. From a vibrant market square to a moonlit cave and a lavish palace, get swept away by this epic ballet escapade. - Hugely enjoyable entertainment. [The Daily Telegraph] - Fabulously entertaining, if you've never been to a ballet, trust me, this is the place to start. [The Observer] - Performed with gusto and packed with bravura steps. [The Independent] - A roaring, madcap success. [Financial Times] - This traditional version is top notch with all the great scenery and costumes this ballet deserves.
