Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

Morning Mirror Edition 568 - 17/12/2013

In this edition


1) Editorial

Slugs n' snails.

If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.

With life in Zimbabwe being so very transient, I have a delightful way of remembering people who have been special in one's life, but who have now passed on or moved away.

Every year my Maltese Cross Lilies bloom when the first rains come and I remember that they came from the garden of our dear friends, Dave and Midge and their Mum Onie. The lilies grew at Portwe Estate, their once beautiful farm house of many years standing.

The Spider Lily plant that I grew from Jack Buckle's garden, also blooms when the first rains come, they are absolutely exquisite, white with spidery tendrils and bring me many happy memories of a man who gave his piano playing gift to countless hundreds of Bulawayo folk.

My dear friend Yvonne who retired last year due to ill health, gave me so many plants, roses, day lilies, and chrysanthemums that pop up out of the ground annually and bring me tremendous joy.

My own mom gave me many cuttings from her garden, an Easter Cactus that flowers joyfully at the strangest times, and a maidenhair fern that I have nursed through many troubled times, but it always springs back to remind me of that precious Gentle Woman.

My amaryllis were splendid this year, great tubs of white, blood red, and orange, and they all grew from one bulb given to me many years ago by the late Kitty French. Over there against the wall is a giant pelargonium, that flowers a brilliant iridescent fuchsia colour and came from a dear friend who smuggled it across the border in her suitcase!!

My orange clivia were all stolen from the gardens of dear friends, and I have a rare yellow clivia from the Rawlins couple with the greenest fingers in town. The orchids too have come from many friendly sources, including some which I gather were purloined in the Chimanimani Forests, and I feel very guilty at having bought them thus aiding and abetting a crime.

This year we have had a good start to our rainy season, (dare I say that above a hushed whisper?) The garden is looking lush and divine and the frogs, snails and chongololos are rejoicing in this fact!

Christmas plants abound in our garden, poinsettias, agapanthas from my friend Ali, giant iris heads from Nita and magnificent coleus propagated with Sebastian's magic touch!

'I don't know whether nice people tend to grow roses or growing roses makes people nice!' Is such a sweet quotation from Roland Beowne.

CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR AT THE ACADEMY

THE NATIVITY
Thursday 19 December in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
In this 2010 BBC film, director Tony Jordan roots the Christmas story in a world we can all recognise and understand. Mary is a seemingly ordinary, spirited 16-year-old girl, who counts her blessings when her parents arrange to marry her to a local carpenter, Joseph. He has a good heart, but when she falls pregnant, he can't accept her explanation... 'What is nice about this new telling of an old story is the fact that it will resonate, and it's relevant. It's very human, too, because that's what it's about, the characters and what happens to them and between them, rather than the message. In short, it's not preachy, and that's a relief' [Sam Wollaston, Guardian]. Admission: $3.00 [free to film members]

CAROLS FROM KING'S
Friday 20 December in the Robert Sibson Hall at 5.15 p.m.
For many people the world over, Christmas begins when a lone chorister steps forward in the chapel of King's College, Cambridge, and begins the processional hymn Once in Royal David's City. As well as several less well known items, the music also includes many favourites such as O Little Town of Bethlehem, In Dulci Jubilo, Angels from the Realms of Glory, In the Bleak Mid-Winter, Silent Night, God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen and Hark! the Herald Angels Sing. Admission: $2.00 [free to Red Carpet members]

TCHAIKOVSKY: THE NUTCRACKER
Friday 20 December in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
'The Nutcracker' is a perennial Christmas favourite and generations of audiences have enjoyed the tale of a Christmas adventure that follows a young girl's journey through a fantasy world of fairies, princes, toy soldiers and an army of mice. it comes in the celebrated Royal Ballet production by Sir Peter Wright, with classic sets designed by Julia Trevelyan Oman. Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Supper available during the interval

THE CONCERT / EVER AFTER - A CINDERELLA STORY
New Year's Eve, Tuesday 31 December in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.30 p.m.
'"The Concert" is one of the few successful comic ballets on any count, and the one that I still find the most hilarious I have ever seen' [Noel Goodwin]. '"Ever After" is a movie of surprises, not least that the old tale still has life and passion in it. I went to the screening expecting some sort of soppy children's picture and found myself in a costume romance of humour, energy and zest. And I was reminded again that Drew Barrymore can hold the screen and involve us in her characters...' [ Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun Times]. Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet and film members] Three-course dinner available - $15.00 per head.

NEW YEAR'S CONCERT

Friday 3 January 2014 in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
The Vienna Philharmonic's New Year's Concert in 2011 'was enhanced by two debuts: Franz Welser-Möst, General Music Director of the Vienna State Opera conducted for the first time, and music by Franz Liszt, who was born on 22 October 1811 in Raiding (now in Austria but then in Hungary), was performed at a New Year's Concert for the first time.' Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available - $10.00..

5) Roses And Raspberries
Merry Christmas to you all and thank you for supporting The Mother Trust in 2013. I've written below a few words on the work we have achieved in both the Matobo and Hwange areas as well as in Bulawayo itself. I've tried to keep it brief as most of you will be leaving for your holidays soon and time is short. No doubt I have not included everything.

Not many know that we have contributed almost $35 000 to Matobo area this year and this includes Ethandweni Orphanage, child headed homes, Matobo Rurual Clinic, Matobo Rhino Protection Initiative Trust, Whitewaters Primary School and many individuals. In Bulawayo, we helped the SPCA feed their animals at a time when they were pretty broke and our $1000 contribution went a long way to assist them during this stage.

Hwange - our support of Nechilibi High School is ongoing with the building of the Girls Dormitory and hopefully this will be completed early 2014. We also received a very specific donation for 1000 chairs and tables for this school from one of Ivory Lodge's Australian guests. They were delivered in time for the end of year O'level and A'Level exams. Yay!
Dete Old Age Home has received 3 months of food rations from us this year for their entire home.

Ricardo is still at King George V1 - his report shows that he is working harder than in the past, and we believe he is finally growing up and taking on his studies more seriously. Our Danish donor who particularly sponsors Ricardo, was able to buy him another wheelchair this year for his ever growing little body.

Its gifts and contributions like this that makes Mother Africa successful - our aim has always been to act as a conduit and assist with donations in reaching the projects that are close to our guest's hearts.

As we all know, in Africa, we can't change ones culture or instill our own beliefs on its people, but what we can do is help improve lives, one person at a time.

May your God go with you this Christmas time.
Sharon and the Mother Africa Trustees.
A small crowd of us went to the annual Carols by Candlelight last Tuesday evening. It was absolutely fabulous! The Amphitheatre was full with a "rainbow nation" of people of all ages (when I went 2 years ago we barely filled a third) all singing the traditional carols. The stage was filled with 8/9 school choirs, from the littlies to the seniors, who sang beautifully and from traditional to modern versions with a few stunning solos and fun or Africanised versions of old songs! The only disappointing note was that, despite many of the organisers and back-stage etc being white and the audience a fair mix, not a single white face was amongst the various choirs or actors! (ps. not a racist comment - just an observation!) All moneys raised (entrance is by donation; cool drinks, popcorn, burgers/hot-dogs, etc all sold at non-profit) are for children's charities in Bulawayo and it was great to see the turnout and, thus, money raised for some special kids to have something special this Xmas! Well done to all the kids, the Academy of Music, Rotary and all the schools (teachers, admins and parents) for a wonderful show and a lovely Xmassy evening!

THE IDEAL BOOK FOR CHRISTMAS

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 Miss 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.

The book is $20.00 and entire proceeds are being donated to The Haven in Bulawayo, under the auspices of Morning Mirror and the generous author Lauren St John.

19) Seeking Friends

Please help me find Denise nee Brink who married Paddy Lloyd? They both worked at the ZBC Montrose Studio's of ZBC in the 60's and 70's. They moved to Papua New Guinea in the late 70's I think. I really would appreciate it if anyone could put me onto them.
Thanks,

Ex Bulawayo
cherith@mweb.co.zw
During 1968-69 I was Member i/c B.S.A.P. Bembezi and living there and running a little store and sweet factory, was a delightful family - Chan, Li-Chiang, Eric and Sally-Anne Machine. Years later, my late wife and I attended Eric's wedding but eventually we lost touch, ending up, in 1982, in England. Do you happen to know where they all are and how I can get in touch? Other friends included the elderly Fletchers, Len and Marian Schmidt and the Edwards family.
