1) Editorial
It has been a sad week for Bulawayo. 
3) Congratulations
4) Condolences/In Memoriam/Wreath Funds Daphne Branders Today, a sad day .. The ever smiling, cheerful and appreciative Daphne Branders forever went to sleep at midnight of the 16th-17th May 2021, at the Barbara Burrell Centre, Bulawayo just 230 nights short of her 103rd Birthday. Should you have had the privilege to spend time in the company of effervescent Daphne, then you will surely share our sentiment of loss of her kind & gentle spirit and genuinely loving soul. Thank you to the staff of Barbara Burrell Centre who cared for and loved Daphne as family. 'Forever the teacher now amongst many of your little children I'm sure' with fondest love, Mark Antonia Baelyn & Bo. On behalf of Jack Allard this is to announce, with great sadness, the death of his beloved father, Mick, peacefully in his sleep at Alicelands on the 7th May 2021. MICHAEL JOHN ALLARD 1950 - 2021 My dad had many incredible and enviable talents. He will probably be remembered most as an artist, because he painted thousands of amazing paintings and portraits in his lifetime, which hang in private and public collections all over the world. He was also a brilliant photographer. As a student he won the Michaelis Prize for his photography, and he went on to take tens of thousands of incredible photographs. He was the drummer for the band, The Short Circuit Guavas, in Bulawayo in the 1960s and then for Louis the Jeep at UCT and in London in the 1970s. We still have his old drum set in his studio and he used to play them from time to time. He was an amazing carpenter and we have examples of his carpentry all over our home. As a sportsman he played baseball for Rhodesia in the 1960s and became a pretty handy golfer later in his life. But most importantly, he had the most amazing personality. He was a great raconteur and could tell jokes like no one else, take off any accent, and he spoke fluent Sindebele from a very young age. He had an amazing ability to leave a lasting impression on anyone he met, whether it be a joke, story or just his general demeanor, he would always make the most of any situation, whether it be good or bad. Life was larger and more important in his presence. This will be sorely missed by myself, and everyone who had the privilege of meeting him. He was the most loving and loved father any son could have asked for. Rest In Peace, Dad.

Accommodates 30ppl, secure parking also available Contact 0712845003/0292277972 Appeal from BULAWAYO SOCIETY FOR THE PREVENTION OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS When I look into the eyes of an animal, I do not see an animal I see a living being, I see a friend, I feel a soul. Anthony Douglas Williams I think many of us feel like that, but perhaps especially during these difficult times when these 'souls' need our collective help more than ever before - included are the animals rescued from abuse and neglect, and cared for at Bulawayo SPCA who are in dire need of our help and support. Knowing that the lockdown has given folk time to sort out cupboards, garages etc - please have a look at our Charity Shop List and our Kennel Wish List - you may be surprised how many unwanted items to you - are just what we are needing here at the kennels! Shop All the volunteers who work at the charity shop deserve a big pat on the back, but they DO need items to sell! - apparently the shelves are rather bare, so they would appreciate any unwanted saleable household goods, such as ornaments, glassware, crockery, pictures, clothing, garden tools, small items of furniture, jam jars for the jam makers! - in fact anything they can sell to make money to help the kennels. They have Ecocash for convenience - items can be dropped off at the Charity shop - 127e,Robert Mugabe Way. Kennel and Clinic Wish List If folk could donate any one of these items, that would be fantastic! Old blankets and towels, Newspapers,Tinned + Dried Pet Food for Dogs and Cats, Fly Smear, Old Crepe Bandages, Latex Gloves, Face Masks, Paper Towels, Disinfectant Wipes, Antiseptic Wound Spray, Dressings, Toys for Cats, Cat Carriers, Dog Boxes or Cages, Fly Spray, Bolt Cutters, Brooms both Soft and Stiff, Disposable Aprons, off cuts of Foam Rubber to cover donkey harnesses. all can be dropped off at the Kennels, cnr of Magazine and Khami Road - if you can donate just one of these items. it will improve the welfare of at least one animal - Thank You!
