ADVERTS TO BE SUBMITTED BY MONDAYS AT 5 P.M ++++ 1) Editorial TO IRON OR NOT TO IRON It was the tiniest little shirt I had ever ironed in my life! Navy and signal-red checks with a tiny collar and minuscule sleeves with turn back cuffs!! I LIKE to iron; there's a satisfaction in the whisssssssp of the steam-float as the hot metal coasts across a rough patch, leaving it slick and almost shining. I like the manouvering around buttons and belt-loops, the intricacies of collar, cuffs, plackets, pleats. But my daughters!! They don't even know what an iron looks like!!! Ironing tiny little shirts is a lot easier than ironing shirts for Big Boys!! Why do they always choose linen shirts I ask you, no one in their right mind can iron a linen shirt successfully. HeeHoo insists on ironed shirts and so far in the USA I have managed to trick him into accepting a tumble-dried shirt, the modern shirts are generally pretty forgiving. The standards have dropped considerably since I started Granny Sitting in the USA, no ironed sheets!!! EEEEK.......... I do iron the pillow cases though and am pretty proud of that feat. What I do miss is the smell of sun dried linen, no one in the USA dries their linen on the line in the sun, every stitch is tumble dried and no amount of dryer sheets or Sta-Soft can replace the smell of sun dried sheets. My excuse, and I am sticking to it, is that in Zim we have the dreaded Putzie Fly, which necessitates the strict and complete ironing of everything or face the nasty consequences. No Putzi Flies here, so why iron As for hankies!! HeeHoo refuses to believe me that people in America never use hankies! I even bought him some of those giant sized men's Kleenex tissues, but he refuses to use them, he insists on his nice crisp white cotton hankies which HAVE to be ironed!! And then there are the pretty holly-sprigged, damask napkins I brought from home for Christmas. I thought idly of taking them home for Gogo to iron but then reluctantly knuckled down to the task....... Dry cleaners here in the USA offer an extraordinary service. Just hang your dry cleaning on the front door, text them with your credit card details, they will collect, and then deliver when clean and pressed! And its a very economical service as well! ++++ BULAWAYO WATCHDOG. ++++ 2) Notices and Events ROUGH BLOODY DIAMONDS - a novel by Tony Waters (formerly of Bulawayo) The diamonds are theirs for the picking but first they must deal with the rough diamonds. Following Siakonza's map Pat van Zyl and his friends have found the diamond diggings in the east of "Mashonaland" on the border with Mozambique. But the cunning Barnato learns of the location. He will need the co-operation of both Paul Kruger and King Lobengula if he is going to stake his own claim. But can he outwit the combination of Cecil Rhodes and Pat van Zyl http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MUE6F48 Kindle Edition GBP2.42 http://www.amazon.com/dp/1530096871 Paperback Edition GBP8.21 ++++ Do you know any elderly or disabled person that is starting to battle to take basic care of themself.

SEE YOU THERE!!! ++++ PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO AND THE ACADEMY WEDNESDAY 1 FEBRUARY ACADEMY CONCERT AND PRESENTATION ROBERT SIBSON HALL AT 5.30 P.M The annual Academy Presentation and Concert will follow the usual format of a short concert, an equally short prize-giving and a short speech from the guest speaker! On this occasion the prizes will be presented by Adri Botha and the speech given by Deon Marcus. Both have been highly regarded members of the Academy, and sadly both will be leaving us at the end of this term. We hope that everyone will do their best to be with us for the occasion. Dinner will be available afterwards for all who would like to join the guests and members of the Academy staff and council. The cost is $10.00 and the menu is: Baked sweet and sour chicken with rice or noodles and peas. Chocolate eclair. Dinner should, as usual, be booked in advance, no later than 9.00 a.m. on the day of the event. THURSDAYS 2, 9, 16 & 23 FEBRUARY POLDARK: SERIES 2 ROBERT SIBSON HALL AT 7.00 P.M. 'The second season is now really getting into its stride and this episode has its fair share of real feel-good moments.' [Episode 3: Apple magazine] 'Five episodes in and there's most definitely no mid-season lull, as Poldark continues to surprise and move us in many different ways.' [Episode 5: Digital Spy] Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m. FRIDAY 3 FEBRUARY BIZET: CARMEN ROBERT SIBSON HALL AT 6.30 P.M. Bizet's masterpiece of the gypsy seductress who lives by her own rules is one of the most frequently staged operas in the world and its melodic sweep is as irresistible as the title character herself, a force of nature who has become a defining female cultural figure. Carmen was a scandal at its premiere where its breaking of conventions shocked and outraged its first audiences and Bizet died suddenly later in the year, unaware that the work would achieve international acclaim within the following ten years. 'A classical and utterly dramatic approach to probably the world's most beloved opera - Karajan's Carmen is as much a delicacy for opera fans as it is a perfect starter for newcomers.'[ArkivMusic] 'Karajan's production brings a whole new dimension to the opera combined with a magisterial interpretation.' [Le Monde] Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval ($10.00) FRIDAY 10 FEBRUARY VISCERA / CARMEN / ETC [CARLOS ACOSTA] ROBERT SIBSON HALL AT 6.30 P.M. This recording was filmed on 12 November 2015 when Royal Ballet star Carlos Acosta gave his farewell performance at Covent Garden. That night, however, didn't only showcase his abilities as a dancer. The climax of - and the most substantial item in - the four-part programme was his own recently choreographed version of Carmen, set to music from Bizet's familiar operatic score. The programme also included contrasting works by two of the world's greatest choreographers, Jerome Robbins and George Balanchine, as well as the Royal Ballet's Liam Scarlett, whose sensual and energizing Viscera began the programme; Afternoon of a Faun is Robbins's exquisite response to Debussy's languorous Prelude a l'apres-midi d'un faune and Balanchine's Tchaikovsky Pas de deux is a bravura showpiece. 'The cast is faultless, with Marianela Nuņez as Carmen, Federico Bonelli as Escamillo and Acosta as Don Jose all proving their considerable artistry and flair. Nuņez in particular shines as the fearless heroine.' [The Stage] 'Most rewarding of all, however, is the revival of Liam Scarlett's Viscera. This is dance that makes dancers look good, and the 16-strong ensemble reward it with performances of exhilarating attack.' [The Telegraph] ++++ 3) Congratulations Fifty years ago on 21st. January, a baking hot day in mid-summer, Mike and Liz Davies nee Gibbens were married by the Rev, Ivan Carson in The Methodist Church, Main St. Liz wore a white wool mini-skirt with shasta daisies in her hair and a big bouquet of shasta daisies by Wright's Florists. They were worried that the flowers wouldn't last, having never used them before, but they stayed fresh and beautiful. We have been together over many miles, around Zimbabwe and overseas in Indonesia, The Philippines, Mauritius and Iran and many more. We are now living in Cambridgeshire in a quiet green village called Fenstanton.
