Lakeside Dam

Anyone who was around in Bulawayo in the 1950's a 1960's knew about Lakeside Dam.
It was a mecca for folk who wished to get out of town for a pleasant weekend.

Situated off the Old Essexvale Road, the trip there entailed driving past the Leander Riding Stables (which had previously been situated in Leander Avenue Hillside) on the right, then past the Bulawayo Country Club with its superb golf course. Then there was the Hotel Rio further on, synonymous with its lovely grounds, food and the peacocks!
Then there was Lakeside Dam. Situated on the Kabot Brothers estate, the Kabots had made part of their fortune with their engineering firm, notably their windmills which pumped precious water to feed farmers' parched soils and nourish their produce and animals.

The facilities at Lakeside welcomed families. Like Hillside Dams, there were swings and see-saws for the kids and seats for all to enjoy. I'm quite sure that there may have been a kiosk there to supply drinks and victuals for all.
The reason why I know about Lakeside is direct experience but only many years later. My maternal grandparents had a smallholding that adjoined the Kabot estate. 52 hectares in all, they raised cattle, sheep, pigs at one stage, chickens and even geese! As kids we were so scared of the geese. They would hiss and flap at us in a threatening way. No wonder that 'guard geese' are so effective elsewhere. They would be the first to raise alarms with their loud calls.

As a dispensation, the Kabots allowed the sheep and cattle belonging to my grandfather to graze on their large estate. A young herd boy would keep an eye on them and chivvy them along if they lingered. It was an amicable and neighbourly agreement.

As a family we lived in Riverside, Redstone Drive to be precise. My father had built our home brick by brick. My grandparents' plot was a ten-minute walk away. What a time we as kids had there. The love of our grandmother, admiring her flowers for selling, the fig trees, the mulberry trees, the chickens, the sheep, the cattle and my favourites - the Muscovy ducks!

And as we got older, we became braver - we went into Kabot land! There wasn't much to see initially - just scrubland where the animals grazed. Then we came across a magical place where the eucalyptus trees grew. It was like an oasis in a parched land. They offered shade under the harsh sun. We would peel the bark from them, little knowing of their Australian origins, where koala bears would only live.

And then we discovered Lakeside Dam, my friend Darren and me. For us it was truly a surreal experience. The Dam was still there but had not been tended to for many years. The wall was still there but contained little water, silted up over the years. But then as we went around, we found the area where people had gathered many years ago.
There were lovely shady trees and it was another oasis. But the environs reminded me of a scene from the cartoon The Jungle Book where the 'palace' of the orangutans was so dilapidated. There were swings with rotting ropes dangling down. See-saws where the wood had succumbed to the ravages of time. Seats that were also in a sad state of disrepair and had probably not been sat on for many a year. We loved that melancholy ambience.

Then my friend Darren got a superb present - a rubber dinghy! Many a good weekend were spent paddling around on the dams in Matopos, Maleme and Mtsheleli. And then came the great news - Lakeside Dam was spilling! For the first time in many a year. The spill-over gushed down the bottom of my grandparent's smallholding. What an opportunity for Darren and me. We went down to the bottom of the plot armed with the inflated dinghy and stared with amazement at the gushing flow of the water as it passed by.
Tentatively we prepared to enter the water. And then we were off! Bumping across trees and banks we had the thrill of our time. Then all too soon it was over.

We emerged, triumphant that we had conquered that raging river even for a short time. Then back to reality - my Mom collected us, we had deflated the dinghy and we were covered in ticks! Nasty little creatures.
And then on to the 1990's - Lakeside again came to life, this time for biking and racecourse purposes. When I heard this, I was so pleased.
Lakeside being as it should be - a place of recreation for Bulawayans.

ALL EVENTS IN THE ROBERT SIBSON HALL
THE ACADEMY AND PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO

THE ACADEMY AND PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO
THURSDAY 25 JULY AT 7.00 P.M. ROMANCING THE STONE
'Romancing the Stone' reaches back to the classic Saturday morning serials of old with an action-filled adventure enlivened by the sparkling chemistry between its well-matched leads as adventure writer Joan Wilder (Kathleen Turner) teams up with soldier of fortune Jack Colton (Michael Douglas) after learning that her sister is being held prisoner by evil art dealers in Colombia. It seems that her sister has mailed Wilder a map leading to a valuable treasure and this is the price the kidnappers are demanding for her freedom. But there are plenty of others who want the map too...
'After all the Raiders rip-offs, it s fun to find an adventure film that deserves the comparison, that has the same spirit and sense of humour.' [Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times]
'Filled with twists, stunts, and witty banter, "Romancing the Stone" is a breathlessly enjoyable action comedy. [BBC]
Admission: $6.00 [free to Film members]

FRIDAY 26 JULY AT 6.00 P.M. MAMA MIA! and MAMMA MIA! HERE WE GO AGAIN
'Mamma Mia!' and its sequel need no introduction but here s a chance to see them both again - with a break for supper in between and special decor to enhance the evening!
'An absolutely hilarious, rousing and joyous celebration that ought to have you dancing in the aisles.' [Pete Hammond, Hollywood.com]
'This film is an utterly joyous experience and I cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone who enjoys musicals and/or Abba s music.' [IMDb]
'I simply can t imagine how "Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again" could be any better than it is. I loved it to pieces and I can t wait to go again! [Observer]
'"Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again" remains implausible, unlikely and utterly glorious. Who can ask for anything more, as they might sing themselves.' [We Live Entertainment]
An Academy Fund-Raiser - Admission: $15.00

THURSDAY 1 AUGUST AT 7.00 P.M. NORTH WEST FRONTIER
An exercise in nostalgia! - 'North West Frontier' was released sixty years ago in 1959, as long ago as the film is was from the events it portrays!! It is the North West Frontier of India at the turn of the century. Captain Scott (Kenneth More) is sent by the British Governor to rescue a five-year-old Prince and his American Governess, Catherine Wyatt (Lauren Bacall), when a rebellion breaks out amongst the tribesmen. Scott is instructed to take the child to safety in Kalapur, which is 300 miles away, in the belief that while he is alive, no rebellion can succeed. They are forced to travel on an old and fragile train, but it soon becomes clear that the danger from the train is the least of their worries. Someone on the train is trying to kill the Prince.
'The action occurs almost nonstop, guns blazing, cannons roaring, sabres flashing at every turn, yet there is still time for character development. Nice.' [Movie Metropolis 2 July 2012]
'Wonderfully tense chase movie over India. Great set of actors on top form.' [Rotten Tomatoes]
'A positively rip-roaring joy from start to finish.' [IMDb]
Admission: $6.00 [free to Film members]

FRIDAY 2 AUGUST AT 7.00 P.M. VERDI: MACBETH
Placido Domingo takes the lead in this 2016 production of Verdi s 'Macbeth' with Russian mezzo Ekaterina Semenchuk as Lady Macbeth. 'Macbeth' was the first Shakespeare play that Verdi adapted for the operatic stage and it was completed during the time he described as his 'galley years', a period of 16 years in which he produced close to twenty operas. Verdi wrote to his librettist that this tragedy is one of the greatest creations of the human spirit. If we can t do something great with it, let us at least try to do something out of the ordinary.
'For a singer in his mid-seventies his voice is still is astoundingly good shape - it doesn t sound old, and still has flexibility and power.' [BBC Music Magazine]
'Ekaterina Semenchuk's Lady Macbeth is an outstanding performance, a mezzo with just the right kind of gritty yet gleaming tone - and a great top - to encompass Verdi's demands.' [Gramophone]
'Placido Domingo assuredly remains a phenomenon in the title role and Semenchuk brings exciting tone and considerable vocal power.' [Opera]
Admission: $6.00 [free to Red Carpet members]

19) Seeking Friends

Canon Humphrey Pugh

We are doing a short book on our parish history and are writing a chapter on some of the parishioners who traveled from the Parish Church of St Chrysostoms in Manchester in the UK and worked as missionaries in the then Rhodesia. One such person was Canon Humphrey Pugh who was a curate in the parish of St John Chrysostom but emigrated and ended up as Dean of Bulawayo Anglican Cathedral. We understand that sadly both he and his wife Eve passed on but we understand there is a possibility that some family members- Anthea and Peter Nash might still be in Zimbabwe living possibly in Bulawayo or Filabusi. We are therefore sending this message to you in the off chance that you might know them and might be able able to help us make contact with them if they would like to be contacted to share some of the missionary work Canon Pugh did in then Rhodesia. I am a Zimbabwean myself now settled here in Manchester and have been working with the current incumbent Canon Ian Gomersall to map some of the activities of people who lived here in Victoria Park and have gone abroad across the continent. For Zimbabwe Canon Pugh is one of them. Another is a Mrs Molly Adam who ended up as principal at St Aidan in Mbembesi.

I teach a set of 5 classes covering pregnancy, labour, baby care, breastfeeding and other information. I also do a "crash course" for out of towners.
These classes are valuable even if you're having an elective CAESAREAN SECTION!!
Please book early.

I can be with you at the hospital when you're in LABOUR to help you to cope!
I also work part time at a BABY CLINIC :-)
