PASSPORT PHOTO WOES

Well thats that !!

I am saddled with my new passport photo for another ten years !! EEEEK !!

My drivers license is bad enough, issued at age 16, (under the auspices of the Southern Rhodesian Government) I look like an absolute nightmare. And I have looked like that for nearly forty years.

How many times have my friends smirked smugly on viewing my drivers license !! There I am - Dusty Springfield beehive, Dionne Warwick fringe cut straight across, heavy Margot Hemingway eyebrows and blush ........ FRECKLES !!

How awful can a girls driver's license photo be for forty years. It does get me away with murder at road blocks however. The police officer who demands that I produce my license always does a double take !!

Oh but you are so OLD !! They say in horror, comparing the young Dusty Springfield with that stern lady who has driven for a thousand years in probably the most stressful of all countries.

"And what is this place?" they all ask, fresh from Morris Depot police training school.... " Southern Rhodesia" ?? Where is that place ??

'Issued in 1965 young man" I say sternly, twenty years before you were even born !! And look not a single endorsement !! ( They have a healthy respect for ancient people fortunately and generally let me go with bemused and baffled looks !!)

Oh and by the way, the driver's license states "Fee paid two pounds!!"

One does not have to produce one's drivers license too often fortunately, but a passport is open and subject to much abuse and ridicule a lot more often !!

Knowing it was a photo call, I applied my TV style pancake make up, adding a spot of pollyfiller here and there. A touch of blusher undoubtedly looked quite becoming and there is still thankfully, nothing that needs to be done to those Margot Hemingway eyebrows. I thought the pearl earrings made a nice touch, takes the emphasis away from the neckline they tell me !!

A fetching blue and white check open neck blouse in seersucker to give depth to the photo, the lipstick that HeeHoo hates, but it has potential in a photo, a couple of artful curls here and there to cover a multitude of sins, and off we went.

HeeHoo does not require makeup and extra adornment, somehow men seem to age so much more gracefully than women. So he went as he always does, dressed like a Zimbabwean farmer !! Khaki open neck shirt and distinguished grey hair is all the accoutrement that he needs.

The photographer was not at all impressed with my attire, clucking his tongue admonishingly, he demanded I go home and change my top, as it would not work with his white background.!!

HeeHoo, perpetually in a hurry to get back to work, refused point blank and manfully took off his khaki shirt and handed it to me !!

Now Darhl, my " colour-me-beautiful" consultant Heather Wagstaff would have had an absolute hissy fit !! Khaki is not for me !!!! That withering husbandly gaze however had me dressing in khaki in a flash.

I looked like I was dressed in an Iversens tent, the neck was fifteen sizes too big for me and the pockets were down by my ankles !!

I wondered what the passport people would say at husband and wife both dressed like the Broederbond !

Off with the earrings chirped the photographer cheerfully !! Off with the necklace too ......... oh and the ears must show, push your hair behind your ears.

By now I am looking like a Hobbit and as I stared at the photog balefully, he captured that exact moment on film !!

Will they ever allow me into any country with that passport photo I wondered disparagingly , thinking evil thoughts about immigration officials and photographers worldwide.

PAB AND THE ACADEMY

THE PETERHOUSE ORCHESTRA
Tuesday 3 April in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.00 p.m. for 7.00 p.m. The Peterhouse Music Department will present a concert at the Academy showcasing the talent of their young musicians. The programme includes a wide variety of music which should appeal to young and old alike. Soloists, ensembles, choirs, and bands will perform compositions from many different eras. A highlight will be a full orchestral performance, which will include musicians from Watershed College, playing excerpts from well-known musicals. Works by Mozart, Ravel, Michael Jackson and Lady Gaga will be performed and elements of fused traditional and contemporary African music are included in what promises to be an exciting and entertaining programme. Booking is at the Academy. Tickets are $10.00 including wine and snacks from 6.00 p.m. and must be booked no later than Friday 30 March. Tickets for the concert alone will be available at $5.00.

BACH: MASS IN B MINOR
Wednesday 4 April IN THE Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
Bach's great masterpiece was recorded in the magnificent surroundings of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame in Paris. The soloists are Ruth Ziesak (soprano), Joyce DiDonato (mezzo-soprano), Daniel Taylor (alto), Paul Agnew (tenor) and Dietrich Henschel (baritone) with The Maîtrise de Notre-Dame de Paris and the Ensemble Orchestral de Paris conducted by John Nelson. Supper available from 6.00 p.m. Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members]

TITANIC
Thursday 12 April in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
The Titanic sank a hundred years ago on the night of 14/15 April 1912 and James Cameron's celebrated film will be shown to commemorate the event. "Sweeping romance set against the background of R.M.S.Titanic's maiden voyage in 1912 - and framed by a modern-day story of a salvager who stumbles onto a heretofore unknown survivor of the sinking (beautifully played by 1930s leading lady Gloria Stuart). Spectacular in every way, an eye-filling re-creation of the sights and sounds of the grandest ship of its time, but what keeps it afloat are the magnetic performances of the young leads, Kate Winslett and Leonard DiCaprio... Winner of eleven Oscars including best Picture, Director, Visual Effects, Music, Song, Cinematography, Sound and Costumes" [Maltin's 2012 Movie Guide]. Supper available from 6.00 p.m. Admission: $3.00 [free to film members]

WAGNER: RIENZI
Friday 13 April in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
Wagner's early opera is in the tradition of Parisian grand opera and is quite unlike the style he subsequently began to develop. Full of spectacle and extremely rousing music, it concerns Rienzi, the last of the tribunes in 14th century Rome, but this DVD of the Deutsche Oper's 2010 production transfers the action to the Nazi era with often stunning effect. It is "launched with a virtuoso mime to the overture set in Berchtesgaden (with a nod to Charlie Chaplin) and ending in the bunker as Rienzi rails against the people for being unworthy of him... The production is extremely complicated, executed with total commitment by all concerned, and well caught for the screen... I was gripped by this [Rodney Milnes, Opera April 2011]. "The production is a knockout" [The Sunday Times] Supper available during the interval Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members

THE EIGHTH BULAWAYO MUSIC FESTIVAL
Wednesday 23 to Sunday 27 May
There is a pre-festival dinner on the Tuesday evening, 22 May at the Bulawayo Club. This will be a substantial finger supper and courses will be interspersed with music from several of the musicians ending with a sing-along led by Leslie Howard who has a repertoire of over eight hundred songs and will be happy to take requests! Numbers will be limited for this event and tickets will be $25.00 including wine - not included in the season ticket.

The Festival itself will perhaps be the most ambitious yet. No fewer than twenty-one musicians will joining us from beyond our borders including (in order strictly alphabetical!) the Amici String Quartet, Juliette Bausor (flute), Sharon de Kock (violin), Coady Green (piano), Leigh Harrold (piano), Leslie Howard (piano), the Junior Odeion String Quartet, Mary King (mezzo-soprano/conductor), Njabulo Madlala (baritone), Piet Moolman (conductor), Alenka Ponjavic (soprano), Richard Sisson (piano, composer, conductor, etc!), Christopher Smith (piano), Morgan Szymanski (guitar) and Petroc Trelawny (narrator, interviewer).
There will be a great wealth of music on offer. As well as the dozen or so classical concerts there will be plenty of other music to enjoy including pop and gospel concerts, Indian music and dancing and an Africa Day Celebration. Three of the major highlights will be:
a performance of "Carmina Burana" with soloists, a choir of 150 plus children's chorus, two pianos and seven or eight percussionists - early rehearsals suggest that this will be an event not easily forgotten! the first performance of a major commission from Richard Sisson, "The Song of the Carnivores", involving children from ten schools in both eastern and western suburbs as well as a host of instrumentalists and many of the professional musicians. Choirs are already working on the music all over the city and another memorable evening is guaranteed.
the final orchestral concert, a programme of thee concertos plus "The Carnival of the Animals".
There will also be a concert devoted to music by Schubert, another to Mendelssohn, a celebration of Debussy (born 50 years ago this year), piano quintets by Dohnanyi, Fibich, Schumann and Shostakovich - and much more. One rather different event will be silent films with live accompaniment - including Laurel and Hardy's "Big Business" with Leslie Howard as pianist! Booking will open to the general public on Tuesday 10 April and season tickets will cost $75.00. Booking for individual concerts will open on Monday 30 April.

3) Roses And Raspberries
On Thursday 22nd March,
my cell phone must have fallen out of my handbag as I was loading vegetables into my truck outside Gees Fruit and Veg in 8th Ave. When I got home I searched everywhere for it and the next day when I got to work searched all around the office for it. Still nothing. Then our driver Howard walked into the office and asked if I had lost my cell phone. I said yes and he told me that the previous afternoon a lady called Rose Nyandoro had phoned him on my cell and asked if he knew who the owner of this cell number was and he told her it was me. She said that she had found my phone and could he come and collect it. which he promptly did. I phoned Rose to thank her and she came round to the offices when she came into town. I can't tell you how overwhelmed I was by her honesty. So I would like to pass this on to all your readers
Gay Wilde

RASPBERRIES

Ladies on their own must now be very aware of these opportunists doing this sort of thing in broad daylight. In this instance it was a gunmetal grey saloon with no number plates on it; they thought I lived there and pretended to be needing water for their overheating vehicle, which was parked across the road. They managed to get inside the yard to at least fill their water container and then on the way out the older gentleman was distracting me whilst the younger gentleman in his 20's was spiking my rear tyre.

I went back to the drivers side and started hooting at the gate to be let in and to have the gate immediately locked behind me. Luckily for me, I always keep the passenger door locked with the window slightly down so that the glass is harder to break;same with the drivers side,

The ladies in the house were reasonably quick and the "across the way" neighbour was also attracted by the noise. They obviously then decided that they would leave me alone after I told them to just go away just before I drove into the yard of the house.

I asked the lady of the house to see then if she could see any number plates or identify the vehicle. That was when it was discovered there were no number plates on it and she could not identify the model of car. They still very casually drove off like they were not responsible for any of the havoc and expense they had just caused me. It looked like to me, upon quick glance, as I was not really concentrating on what car model it was, being too upset by the whole incident; the car was a Japanese type saloon, possibly a 10 year old Nissan or Toyota.
Many thanks

A new Vinca called Illumination Gold which is a ground cover that will brighten up a semi-shaded area and also Dianella gold, a perennial for either sun or semi shade. A new grass is Acorus Gold Dwarf which is brilliant for planting around water features or edging beds. Some old favourites have come in. There are two different New Zealand Flax - the Rubra and the Yellow Stripe, Brunfelsia (Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow) Breynia nivosus (Snowbush) and heaps of other plants which are looking great after the rain.

We would also like to take this opportunity to make an appeal for assistance in equipping a rural day care centre/creche. There are 15 children aged between 2 and 5 years. They are looked after during the mornings while their parents work on the farm. We have found a building but are desperate for some toys, picture books, pillows/cushions, carpeting/rugs and if possible any old playground equipment. If it is in bad shape we can fix it. With winter fast approaching they would also be very grateful for any old clothing and blankets. We will collect from anywhere and will be so grateful for anything at all.

The gate will be manned every day with discs being handed out ASAP and we will have clearly marked rangers on patrol. We also are actively engaging with interested parties to offer camping and activities that will bring increased team presence. Eyes everywhere!

A daily charge will be levied everyday from 08h00 to closing time - normally sunset Annual membership cards are available which allows free entry to the Conservancy for the member and their immediate family. These are very affordable; please enquire at gate or office. Special cases, both individual and group, will be considered on application. Please email or drop us a note. Please respect the rules of the Conservancy and help us protect what nature has provided.

Please don't throw your long grass away!!!!!!
I am appealing to anyone who is busy slashing their grass both inside their yard and along their verges; instead of piling it up and burning it, bring it to my stables at Ascot Race Course and l will happily swop it for bags of manure which will enrich your garden. I just ask that it not be mouldy or yellow .

9) Gossip Column

Below is a wonderful poem Audrey Hepburn wrote when asked to share her 'beauty tips.'

It was read at her funeral years later......................

"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others."

EXCITING NEWS ABOUT ONE OF OUR BULAWAYO BOYS

The Country Blockman

From the rolling green hills of the Welsh Valleys, steeped in the history of generations of neighbourly co-operation ,they have brought the spirit of the valley communities to the heart of the Midlands, fully committed to applying the Welsh saying ' Cig Ian - Calon Crif to their new business venture, 'The Country Blockman' , situated in the centre of Howick. The saying is translated as 'pure meat - strong heart' and beckons commitment to the community through honesty and integrity, and that is what Brendon Joubert and Hannah Pugh intend to achieve in Howick, where they have chosen to make home and develop their business.
The couple met in Wales where Brendon acquired his meat handling skills, working for Hannah's father; an established Welsh hill farmer, well known for his organic farming practices and welsh black cattle herd. They are also expert butchers renowned for their expertise in traditional blockman skills and meat presentation. Brendon was unable to return to his native Zimbabwe and the family business in wildlife and tourism, due to the farm evictions, after completing university studies in Pietermaritzburg (IMM (Dip. Marketing) and took the opportunity to study blockmanship and value adding processing in Wales, soon providing a service to the very demanding restaurant industry.
The Country Blockman will concentrate on developing quality meat products and affordable value added homemade delicatessen products, synonymous with country traditions. Brendon and Hannah also hope to stock an array of homemade jams, pickles and preserves, supporting where possible local producers and manufacturers. First and foremost though is to meet the challenge of consistent quality and develop a service to cater the needs of the Howick and Meander residents' and service industries based on friendship and quality service associated with their 'pure meat - strong heart ' ethos and background,

RAINBOW'S END BY LAUREN ST JOHN

This is a story about a paradise lost About an African dream that began with a murder In 1978, in the final, bloodiest phase of the Rhodesian civil war, eleven-year-old Lauren St John moves with her family to Rainbow's End, a wild, beautiful farm and game reserve set on the banks of a slow flowing river The house has been the scene of a horrific attack by guerrillas, and when Lauren's family settles there, a chain of events is set in motion that will change her life irrevocably

Rainbow's End captures the overwhelming beauty and extraordinary danger of life in the African bush Lauren's childhood reads like a girl's own adventure story At the height of the war, Lauren rides through the wilderness on her horse, Morning Star, encountering lions, crocodiles, snakes, vicious ostriches, and mad cows Many of the animals are pets, including Mi Piggy and Bacon and an elegant giraffe named Jenny The constant threat of ruthless guerrillas prowling the land underscores everything, making each day more dangerous, vivid, and prized than the last

33) TIDBITS


As we live our truths, we will communicate across all barriers, speaking for the sources of peace. Peace that is not lack of war, but fierce and positive. - Muriel Rukeyser -


The mother's battle for her child with sickness, with poverty, with war, with all the forces of exploitation and callousness that cheapen human life needs to become a common human battle, waged in love and in the passion for survival. - Adrienne Rich -


Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast. - Lewis Carroll -


1931 You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it"

Dr Adrian Rogers, 1931
