Raspberries Anybody who lives in the Hillside area will know that the wood smoke in this suburb has become a horrendous problem every evening, regardless of power cuts or not. The acidic, smothering haze starts at 5pm and carries on until daybreak. Please may I suggest that residents work together to help 'clean up our air'. Speak to your neighbors, domestic workers and security guards about leaving fires smoldering overnight. Please burn rubbish during the daytime to allow time for the smoke to dissipate. Any other suggestions most welcome. Together, we can make a difference!

This wonderful donation will last them 6 months or more! Bob, for those in Ingutsheni who cannot speak for themselves....THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts! Phil 1:27

7) BULAWAYO NEWS IRISH VISA APPLICATION First you must have a friend on Broadband as this appears to be the only place to find out anything www.embassyofireland.org.za Then you will discover that you must apply on the Internet (again you'll need the long suffering friend with Broadband). Be ready with the following informatibecauseon: Type of visa you want (visit, study, work) and how long. All your current and previous passport details. Name and all contact details (put your email because even though you can never email them, they may eventually email you with a query). How long you have lived in Zim. Have you ever been to Ireland before (if Yes be ready with all that information including reference numbers) Who are you visiting in Ireland with all their contact details. Who you work for with all their contact details. Your spouse's details, date/length of marriage, passport details (I came unstuck here because nowhere did it ask which passport he had and they assumed that it was EU then got suspicious of me "if you have an Irish husband how come you've never been to Ireland before". My Anglo Saxon husband was not amused. Details of your dependents Having given them all that online, you must now send all that supporting documentation to the Embassy in Pretoria. At this point and quite by chance, I discovered that there is an Honorary Irish Consul in Harare who actually answers the phone and talks to you (unlike the Embassy in Pretoria who only give you information on the phone but do not answer questions). I was able to send all the documents to Harare with the US$80 fee. Two problems here were that they wanted my passport and they wanted to take 6 - 8 weeks to process the visa, and they mean this. I managed to negotiate that I sent a certified copy of relevant pages of my passport (not wanting to be without it for that length of time) and that should the visa not come before my flight, I could collect it at the Embassy in London. This was helpful as I would never have left Zimbabwe. On arrival in London I was emailed that my visa was approved so was able to visit the Irish Embassy in London to collect it. Note that collections are only done in the afternoon and that they will fill up 2 pages of your passport with visas and various stamps.

Although the first school opened in Old Umtali in 1895 with 12 students, 1909 is recognised as the start of Umtali High. It was this year that the two church run high schools amalgamated to form the Umtali High School as a government institution.

If you wish to organise a Reunion in your neck of the woods please contact Ray Thorne at mr.cheese@bigpond.com so the event details can be publicised via the Old Borderer website and Umtali Facebook Groups. I wonder if you could give me some assistance please. I have a school group on Facebook and now a website. It's our schools 50th birthday this year. I have been in negotiations with the Minister of Education of Zimbabwe, Senator David Coltart and he has approved us as fundraisers to revamp the school and uplift the students. Extensive research and preparations have been made to put this program into operation. The education system in Zimbabwe is in dire straights and needs all the help it can get. Without Education our country will never come to rights. Part of the program is that we are challenging all former students of Zimbabwe schools to follow our lead. Anyone is welcome to contact me as to the program details and share ideas. They need to contact me on LordMalvernHigh@gmail.com All former students please visit the website. www.LordMalvernHigh.com Regards Joey Van Wyk

19) TIDBITS
For most the situation has improved but for the elderly it has not! We are in desperate need of funding to carry on assisting our pensioners. Now our costs are in real money the task has become greater. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, PLEASE help us to help them. We have had to stop all glasses and dentistry and concentrate on the essential services and life saving medicines only. CLINICS: We run 3 clinics a week, Coronation Cottages Blood Pressure Mon am, full clinic pm, Rhodes Jubilee Thurs pm and Garden Park Fri am, as well as a clinic at King Haven Esigodini once every 6 weeks. Thank you to our Doctors Leg and Condon and Srn Page and Heekes. Cards have been issued to pensioners registered and assessed to ensure only the needy are assisted. We have 1028 registered on the database of which 406 are assisted with clinics, medicines, etc. Total running costs: US$2000 per month MEDICINES: Our medicines are costing approximately US$ 7500 per month, which come from Pretoria, thank you to Castle Ridge for sourcing and packing the medicines for us. We do receive some donated medicines from Tzaneen, as well as vitamins & minerals, cough meds etc. Thank you to Edmund De Beer and his wonderful team. These medicines have become critical as the pensioners are struggling to survive on what little they have and medicines, doctor's, health basically is bottom of the survival list! SCS/MRLHF have been asked to assist with helping the homes in the smaller town, i.e. Kwekwe, Kadoma, Masvingo, Shurugwi and Mutare. The pensioners in these areas don't have access to pharmacies or even doctors. This will add an extra 174 to our medicines list, bringing the total to 580 pensioners per month. The funding is there for the extra medicines but we need assistance for the dispensing fees from the pharmacies. US$1.5 per person total cost US$870 per month. EMRAS: The ambulance cost is US$30 per patient. Over the last quarter we have had 14 patients. Total cost: US$ 420 GLASSES: 8 patients Total cost: US$480. DENTIST: We had a visit from a SA dentist who gave his services for free. Patients that needed extractions or fillings, he was able to assist. Thank you to this wonderful man. Our dentist costs were reduced thanks to the visit. Total cost: US$ 270. OFFICE B7: This offers an essential service to our pensioners to assist with any medical needs they may have or sometimes just a sympathetic ear and support for them in these hard times. The Staff: Janine, Beryl, Isobel, Arlene and Ursula are always there to assist in any situation as well as visit those who are not well or feeling down due to their circumstances. For the Pensioners, this has been invaluable and I would like to thank the SCS/MRLHF team for their dedication and support to our elderly, they really are Earth Angels! The administration behind running an organization such as this, especially with the rotation of medicines and clinics every month is huge. Our running costs for the office: US$ 2500 per month. For us to continue offering this essential service to our pensioners we are looking at US$ 13050 per month, this does not include dentist or optometrist. Please help us to continue by donating to any one of the following accounts at the end of the letter, which ever is more convenient for you and please pass this newsletter on to everyone you know. THANK YOU! FOOD FOR HOMES BULAWAYO The food situation has improved, as product is more readily available in Zimbabwe, but unfortunately at a price! We are still supplying food to the homes as best we can and we have been able to supply fresh meat, bacon and cheese as well as the dry goods. Thank you to all the butcheries that have assisted with mince and stew. The homes are charging more realistic fees, which have helped their cash flow, but for some of the residents it is beyond their means. The walk in freezer has been a god send, not only do we store meat but our dry goods as well such as oats, pronutro, rice etc which has stopped the infestation of weevils! Thank you to all our donors who have made it possible for us to improve the lives of our pensioners!
