PAB AND THE ACADEMY Tuesday 29 December : Titanic Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m. Winner of eleven Academy Awards, Titanic needs no introduction, but twelve years on we thought that people might like to see it again!... Admission: $3.00 / R25.00 Friday 1 January 2010 : Johann Strauss II: Die Fledermaus Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. with a supper interval "Die Fledermaus" is always an enjoyable operetta but especially so in this highly entertaining performance from Covent Garden with Kiri te Kanawa, Hermann Prey and Benjamin Luxon. It has several surprises: one perhaps is that the conductor is Placido Domingo and another that the party scene, in addition to including the expected ballet as part of the entertainment, also involves Charles Aznavour and Hinge & Bracket as well as Merle Park & Wayne Eagling in a pas de deux specially choreographed by Sir Frederick Ashton. The Daily Telegraph hailed the production as 'a summit of musical escapism'. Admission: $3.00 / R25.00 Friday 15 January 2010 : Verdi: Rigoletto Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. with a supper interval In this 1977 Met production of Rigoletto, the director used the 16th century Venetian painter Giorgione as his inspiration for the lavish sets and costumes. The musical side was in equally outstanding hands with Cornell McNeil as Rigoletto, Ileana Cotrubas Gilda, Placido Domingo the Duke and James Levine conducting 'with the command of Verdi that has often been his trademark... Everything made for a superb musical performance' [New York Post]. Admission: $3.00 / R25.00 Monday 18, Thursday 21 and Monday 25 January : Bleak House Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m. By popular request, this outstanding BBC production of "Bleak House" will be shown again over three evenings , the first finishing around 10.15, the other two at 9.45 2010 New Years Party - Victoria Falls Join us for New Years Falls Fest 2009-10 featuring SA's top band WATERSHED!!

7) BULAWAYO NEWS GUARDIAN ANGELS OF EDITH DULY NURSING HOME MRS BRYCE B MORAR - TRIANGLE DD CAMERON DEREK LANGTON FOOD 4 HOMES GEES FRUIT & VEG JOHNNY & REA KARASAVA KERSHELMAR SANDFORD SIGNS - GAVIN FRASER MRS STEYNBURG TRADEPOWER MR LEE - ZIM/BOTS CHRISTIAN MISSION JOHN AND HELEN BUCKLE Dear friends of Hwange As 2009 draws to a close, many folks are saying how great it is that the country appears to be returning to normal. (Normal, according to the dictionary, means conforming to the usual standard, type or custom.) Each to his/her own meaning of 'normal' but if one looks back over the years, what is happening today is 'normal' for us and quite frankly, we have not, for a very long time, enjoyed what we would like to consider 'normal'. Although the shops are full of food and delightful goodies, nothing much else has changed and sadly, greed and corruption at the highest (and lowest!) level continues unabated. The stranglehold continues to be evident in our beloved Hwange Park with the devastating news of yet two more white rhino having been poached there recently. It is suspected that they were both pregnant females having been translocated from Matopos. What a total waste of life as well as time, finance and effort. We are so sad the year ends on such a sour note (and unfortunately there are still quite a few days to go!) but we can only hope and wish for a better future for our wildlife. We are considered 'bunny huggers' but hey, would it not be an exceptionally sad day when our descendants no longer have any bunnies to hug? We thank sincerely all those who have shown such an interest in what we are trying to achieve in Hwange this past year. We thank particularly our generous sponsors who continue to help out in so many ways, without whom we would not be able to do as much and all those around the world who have supported the endeavours to Friends of Hwange, WEZ Matabeleland Branch, Hwange Conservation Society UK, SAVE Australia, the Hide, Wilderness Safaris and of course, the Parks staff as well. Grateful thanks to Gary Cantle for doing such a sterling job during the year despite numerous hitches and the lack of a decent vehicle. We should like to wish you and yours a happy and peaceful festive season, wherever you may be and whatever you may be doing and only good wishes for whatever lies ahead for us all. Take care and our thanks once again. John and Jenny Brebner Looking for original Christmas gifts? 'The Alley Shop' is now open. We have a variety of glassware, tablecloths, candles, linen, embroidered items, teak furniture, paintings and lots more. Our entrance is through Farm Fresh Vegetables, 122 Robert Mugabe Way. And coming soon in 2010.....Farm Fresh Butchery. Watch this space! There is a man who lurks around shopping centres, mainly Bradfield, who preys on elderly people. He is tall and currently has a beard, and calls himself Paul. He approaches and offers to repair things on vehicles - stitching of seats, covers of spare wheels, re-spraying, etc. He quotes a price, and when the job is done, changes it to an excessive amount with excuses of 'extra costs'. If you don't pay, he becomes extremely aggressive. I know firsthand of four cases where he has done this. In one he went to the woman's home in Garden Park and was abusive and intimidating, and to get rid of him she paid. In the second case he threatened the person saying that he knew where he lived - this Paul had actually found out the victim's address and intimated trouble. The man paid. The third case was a paint job - badly done and unreasonable cost. Again the old man paid in fear. In the fourth case the woman - who is naturally suspicious - demanded the item to repair back when she realised he had changed his quote, but he was very unpleasant to her too. He is a nasty piece of work, persistent, potentially dangerous, and people need to be aware and not deal with him.

To all our friends Wishing you all a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and PROSPEROUS 2010! Les, Esme and Sue Clarke (Aldershot, UK) esmescottclarke-22virginmedia.com Commissioning Of The Cremator Furnace: BulawayoWest Park Crematorium On the 4th May Mark Adamson, a Refractory engineer from SA, fired up the newly renovated Cremator and it was handed over to the City Council on the 5th May. Since then it has been operating, albeit on a limited scale. However, on Friday 11th the City Mayor formally commissioned the Cremator at a ceremony which included the commissioning of the Hindu wood burning cremator. I will include relevant extracts from the Mayor's Address: "The West Park crematorium, built in 1964,served the residents of Bulawayo satisfactorily until it exceeded its life span and required major refurbishment in 1987, 1992, 1997 and 2005 and in 2006 a decision was taken to close it for safety reasons because of major structural and technical problems encountered. At the time the council was unable to purchase a new cremator,r nor was it able to refurbish the old due to severe financial constraints. The non- functioning crematorium brought hardships to communities who wished to dispose of their dead through cremations and had to ferry the bodies to Mutare at great expense.The response from stakeholders culminated in the formation of a committee for the restoration of the cremator under the chairmanship of Mr Dudley Hubbard. Raising funds was the first challenge and with Council Support they successfully approached the Beit Trust who provided a grant of R140,000 for the purchase of materials from SA . Residents donated extremely generously in cash (over R100,000) and kind and made it possible to meet the additional cost of airfares, accommodation, living expenses and construction fees. The business community provided assistance to - demolish the original cremator, service the fans, electrical fuel pumps, clean out the fuel holding tanks, provide secure space for storage of materials, refurbish the existing burners, transport materials from SA and manage customs clearance, provide a machine for cutting bricks, supervise operations and train staff,, provide financial advice and services and the on going servicing of operational needs. I acknowledge the founding chairman of the Crematorium Restoration Committee, Mr Dudley Hubbard of United Springs and Forging, who passed away in April 2008 for organising the committee and availing staff of and facilities at United Springs to ensure the cremator became operational. May his soul rest in peace. I also thank the hardworking committee of Neil Todd (chairman), Mrs Debbie Batty (secretary), Mrs Kathy Booysen (treasurer), Messrs Rev Noel Scott, George Parkin (fund raising), Roger Insley (consultant), George Enslin (city council) and Lucky Mlilo (ABUZ) for seeing it through to its successful conclusion. In conclusion I want to assure our partners that Council will endeavour to ensure that the cremator is treated with the utmost care and that it will be maintained in good order. I now officially commission the cremator to serve the people of Bulawayo." Thank you all for your tolerance and support. It has been a long, frustrating, disappointing and often anxious experience but it has also been FUN! Neil Todd
7A) GOSSIP COLUMN MORE ON DANCERS Just reading about all the ballet dancers and teachers.... Refreshed my memory.... Ceta Burt, Dulcie Heap (was not from Rhodesia was English but came to live and teach in Bulawayo for many years ) Noreen Chisholm I think you will remember her she is still an examiner in London I think, And the Stirling sisters from Harare very well known.... Yes, a few names were omitted in the article on the dancers that were trained in Bulawayo. Gary Burne, Ceta Burt, Dianne Fincham, Ellen Harvey, Geraldine Baron, Noreen Chisholm, Fay Manicom and, of course, Carole Gray who danced in the Young Ones with Cliff Richards, just to mention a few. Dorothy Ainscough started teaching in Bulawayo in 1946 and I was her first pupil. Her love of dance was evident in the results her pupils achieved in Ballet, Tap and Modern dance. Be it in the Eistedfodd or Examinations, her pupils were outstanding. Mention must be made of Joyce Janjetich - Auntie Joycie to everyone. Her talent at the piano was unbelievable. She joined Dorothy in 1947. I have known her to keep in time with a dancer, slowing down and quickening up to a dancer's pace (especially when a child is tapping) and even finishing the music at the same time as the dancer, even though there may have been another seven bars of music to the end! She never learned to tap. Just by observing the lessons whilst playing the music, she became very proficient in tap dancing. In fact, when she left Zimbabwe with her daughter, Sharleen, she became a member of The Golden Girls, a tap group of senior ex dancers that Sharleen taught and danced with in Kwa-zulu Natal. A truly remarkable lady right to the end. The Large City Hall was the venue where all the Eisteddfod's were held. Wonderful memories of standing backstage, waiting for your number to be called. Heart pumping and then ..You're on. I now live in Ontario, Canada. I love watching both the Canadian and American "And so you think you can dance" series. These dancers are truly amazing. Once a dancer, always a dancer. Maureen Wilson (Wells) mbmgwells@295.ca Just thought I'd let you know, my mom knew Merle Park very well and yes that's how I got my name!!!! Gary Burn was born ALJANON HAYES-Hill a well known old Bulawayo family. There was also a couple Gwen & Ewan McColl who taught all forms of dancing in the fifties, Bulawayo Dancing Academy 14th Avenue/Grey Street. From memory I think I trudged there twice a week for at least ten years!!!!!! Love You Merle Mcn Another person who comes to mind, and I think I have the info. correct: Peter Corbishley's daughter, Amanda. Is she not a professional ballet dancer How I enjoy the Bulawayo Morning Mirror week by week ! Re your request about Bulawayo ballet dancers Nicola Anderson, daughter of Colin and Louise, grand daughter of Dave and Sal Anderson. For all the info you'll need, contact Sal, the number I have is 092639285384. May you and yours have a wonderful, happy, healthy Christmas and New Year. With love, Stephanie Joubert Chief tea maker (in the old days) at Trade Fair !! Capetown? The Corbishleys lived next door to George and Edna Byrne, in Hillside during the 60's and 70's. (The Mrs. Byrne who taught at Hillside KG for ever). So perhaps it was Edna's brother, Gary Byrne who actually influenced Amanda to take ballet further. (Gary's real surname was Hayes-Hill, but took on the surname of Byrne professionally). Then you have the dancers like Ray Bullpit, who is somewhere in the Devon area, I think. We had so much influence in all realms of dancing, didn't we? Aah! Those were the days. Carol McKenzie I was at the Bulawayo Dominican Convent with Marila Fraser a wonderful classical ballet dancer. She was just a trifle too short to be accepted into the Royal Ballet Academy and I often wondered whatever happened to her when she left Rhodesia. Does anyone know?
