The New Basket Workshop (TNBW) TNBW is a South African-registered not-for-profit company, the aim of which is to provide design and product assistance to basket producers in southern Africa. Through its activities TNBW seeks to improve the livelihoods of basket makers by linking them to markets in the region and internationally. TNBW works with designers and retailers to collaborate with weavers to use design and traditional techniques to create marketable contemporary products. At the same time it works to preserve and revive techniques, products and skills of rural crafters and weavers, the most talented of whom are often found in some of the world's most impoverished areas. Since September 2008 TNBW has been running a two-year pilot programme in Zimbabwe with the weavers of the Binga Craft Centre and Bulawayo Home Industries. In February 2009 the exciting results of product development workshops were exhibited at South Africa's leading design expo - Design Indaba in Cape Town. The outcome has been most promising; there is a large confirmed export order under execution at present and two others are in the pipe line. Based on the success of this initial project TNBW is working with a local partner to expand the programme in Zimbabwe. TNBW is delighted to respond to the invitation from the Alliance Fran aise de Bulawayo to exhibit the new work of the women of Binga, Bulawayo and Lupane to the people of Bulawayo. Proudly presented by the National Gallery of Zimbabwe in Bulawayo, the Alliance Fran aise de Bulawayo and the New Basket Workshop in partnership with the Binga Craft Centre, the Bulawayo Home Industry and the Lupane Women's Centre.

Details to follow Zimbabwe Trade & Investment Exchange 1-Day Conference & 1-Day Business-to-Business Meetings 16-17 November - Johannesburg, South Africa The current situation in Zimbabwe and southern Africa calls for the organisation of a major trade and investment exchange event which will focus on all economic sectors. The Zimbabwe Trade & Investment Exchange will take place in Johannesburg, South Africa on Monday 16 November with a full day conference, followed by a full day dedicated to business-to-business meetings on Tuesday 17th November. The theme of the event is Rebuilding Zimbabwe: the Challenges & Opportunities to outside Investors. The theme will reflect changes for the better and hope for the future. Given the general scope of the event, sectors which will be included are: financial services, agricultural and manufacturing opportunities; infrastructural projects; logistics and transport; tourism; health services and of course mining. But as important as any sector should be the legal framework for investments. The conference aims to promote Zimbabwe's potential for business and investment as well as instil a sense of confidence and encouragement to potential investors. The event is supported by Zimvest, African Sun, Johannesburg Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Trade & Invest Africa and Business Day. Should you wish to participate in the event as well as take advantage of this valuable networking platform, please visit www.omegainvest.co.za or contact Kim Smith at Omega Investment Research on +27 (0)21 689 7881 or email: kims@omegainvest.co.za Performing Arts Bulawayo [PAB] and the Academy Mondays 26 October and 2, 9 & 16 November Robert Sibson Hall at 5.15 p.m. Bleak House "Bleak House" is by common consent one of the greatest of all Dickens' novels and this BBC serialisation stars a host of well-known names including Gillian Anderson, Pauline Collins, Charles Dance, Ian Richardson and Timothy West. It is being shown over four weeks and each pair of episodes will last around two hours with a short break midway. For those who would like to see them, there will also be interviews with members of the cast at the end of each showing, and there will be subtitles for any who are hard of hearing or find the Sibson's acoustics superb for music but not quite so easy for speech. When first shown in 2006 "Bleak House", won glowing reviews: "A wonderfully rich piece of television." [The Evening Standard] "Gillian Anderson's mesmerising Lady Dedlock is in a league of her own." [The Daily Mirror] "A cast that was uniformly impressive... All in all, the prospect of spending further episodes in this company feels not only enticing but entirely thrilling." [Daily Telegraph] "BBC One's 'Bleak House' adaptation is a masterpiece." [The Observer] Tickets for the series: US$6.00/R40.00 - or US$2.00/R15.00 per evening. Thursday 29 October, Room 25 at 1.10 p.m. Lunchtime Talk: Rossini and "The Thieving Magpie" Lunchtime talks take place on alternate Thursdays for the rest of the year and in this talk Michael Bullivant will discuss Rossini's operas in general with particular emphasis on "The Thieving Magpie". Friday 6 November, Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. Rossini: La Gazza Ladra [The Thieving Magpie] There will be a supper interval. Carriages: 10.30 p.m. Most people know the overture to "The Thieving Magpie" but the opera which follows it is rarely heard. It's a comedy which almost turns to tragedy when the heroine, Ninetta, is threatened with death after being accused of stealing one of her mistress's silver spoons. The culprit is, of course, the magpie of the title and the plot also involves the heroine's father who is a ne'er-do-well soldier, a lascivious and villainous mayor and much more! "Recorded live at the Cologne Opera in 1987, this sparkling production is a winner. One forgets the improbabilities of the plot, so agreeably enjoyable is the performance, with Ileana Cotrubas as a charming Ninetta; and her suitor, Gianetto, sung by David Kuebler, is ardent but tender when he needs to be. All the roles are done with character and obvious enjoyment, including the ensembles and choruses. The orchestra is lively and alert, with Rossini's tuneful invention a constant source of delight. The production is the crowning glory of this performance with beautiful sets and costumes, all brightly and sympathetically lit; this lesser-known Rossini opera is well worth watching." [The Penguin Guide] Tickets: US$3.00/R25.00, free to members. Dinner will be available to order. Thursday 12 November, Room 25 at 1.10 p.m. Lunchtime Talk [Peter Rollason] Friday 13 November, Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. Minkus: La Bayad re - Ballet There will be NO supper interval and the performance will be over c.9.00 p.m. Everyone is welcome to this repeat showing which is by request, especially from some young ballerinas! "La Bayad re ('The Temple Dancer') finds Petipa at his peak and his invention throughout is constantly and engagingly fresh. Not only does he create dance movements that are graceful and sparklingly athletic for the principal dancers but the corps de ballet are given superb ensembles, like the spectacular Appearance of the Shades in Act II.. The dancing in this Covent Garden production is superlative with Altynai Asylmuratova ravishing as Nikiya and Darcey Bussell a particularly seductive Gamzatti. The corps de ballet are eye-catchingly graceful and elegantly precise." [The Penguin Guide] Tickets: US$3.00/R25.00, free to members. Saturday 14 November, Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. Bulawayo Chamber Music Society The programme will include trios by Haydn 
3) ROSES AND RASPBERRIES Raspberry We made a few innocent errors in our VAT return this month which resulted in rejected claims and a 100% penalty charge on each document disallowed. I felt the reasons for rejection were very unfair so I would like to share with you my errors, so that this does not happen to you. When submitting Input tax claims on your Vat 7 return, note the following: All invoices must contain the specific terminology of 'TAX INVOICE' on them. The words 'INVOICE' or 'VAT INVOICE' or 'VALUE ADDED TAX INVOICE' are all disallowed and attract 100% penalty. If you use these invoice books please cease from doing so as your customers will pay dearly! Make sure that the calculation of VAT is shown on each document. You require a Sub Total, 15% vat and a final total. If you record totals only and your invoice is not pre-printed 'VAT INCLUSIVE' the documents are disallowed and attract 100% penalty. And obviously, no cash sale invoices even if it's a legitimate printed TAX INVOICE like a till slip. These too must contain your company details so ask your suppliers to enter them before your sale is rung up. Your ignorance is their bliss. Please don't make my mistakes and pay money for nothing.

Please contact Mrs. Schoop 0914 130 888 PROPERTIES FOR SALE: AUSTRALIA - Property Prices Set to Soar Property prices across Australia have jumped almost 6 percent this year and will continue to rise even in the country's most expensive suburbs, experts have said. The average Australian home has gained $28,194 in value since January this year and is now worth almost half a million dollars at $477,865, according to the RP Data-Rismark Home Value Index. The Market is Heating Up - This is the Time to Invest We had an excellent response to our last ad in the Morning Mirror, with a number of property investors wanting to invest in property in Australia. We are currently working with these investors from southern Africa on Joint Venture Projects whereby they put a deposit into one of our residential developments & we offer 20% returns on the amount invested. At the end of the development phase, the investor owns the property outright. Since the recession, banks have tightened up on lending making opening up new tracts of residential land difficult for developers. As a result, Wealth Acceleration Group began looking at additional ways to fund our projects. We believe that this Joint Venture Project offers investors an excellent strategy to get into property in Australia. We intend making a trip to South Africa to meet with investors in JHB/DBN/CT to discuss all the details of the JV. Alternatively, investors are welcome to come to Australia, meet with us & look at the projects for themselves.
