Morning Mirror is a publication run for the benefit of Bulawayo's only geriatric and frail care home - the Edith Duly Nursing home ++++ EDITORIAL Recycling Pains Recycling in Zimbabwe is so very different to that in the first world.. No-one divides glass, plastic, paper etc, it all gets put into the same bin on the verge (or sometimes dumped in the nearest bush!!) on garbage day. Along come dozens of Zimbabwe's 'Forgotten People', the countless destitutes, young, old, male, female, some even with babies on their backs, the remnants of Zimbabwe's desperate economy.. Everything edible, everything of value, is salvaged. Cardboard boxes are prized to make shelter for the homeless, plastic bottles can be surrendered for a pittance, glass too is valuable as it is redeemable. It is a heartbreaking but all too common sight on bin day in Zimbabwe. Sweden has just the opposite in the recyclable department!! Every household is tasked with separating its waste and physically taking it to the enormous green recycling bins that festoon every roadway. Its a daunting task, visiting the återvinningstunna!! Fortunately one can park one's car close by, boxes must be flattened as the aperture to pass the cardboard through is tiny!! Bottles must be disposed of one-by-one, its a horrifying sound, that of breaking glass, and no throwing a whole bag in at a time!! (Even if you need to do it hastily to avoid askance looks from other recyclers, as to the copious amount of wine bottles in our packets!! ) Clear glass in one container, coloured glass in another, tins and lids in another, aluminium in yet another!! A bin for plastic, a bin for paper and a bin for used clothes collection. It's a dreary and time consuming task and woe betide the folk who put their recyclables in the wrong bin, THEY will track you down and fine you!! ++++ Watchdog Jacaranda Watch - Bruce Macdee has spotted the beautiful lilac blooms below Sunningdale Flats in Samuel Parirenyatwa. ++++ 2) Notices and Events ZIMBABWE ACADEMY OF MUSIC & PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO Tel: 60684 / 67195 E-mail: mailto:zamfriends@gatorzw.co.uk The Academy will re-open for lessons as soon as schools are allowed to resume.

Maureen & Pat Higgins & family. ++++ PETER OGILVIE LANG 13.07.1927 - 23.08.2021 Our dad, grand- dad & great grand-dad passed away peacefully in Perth Australia aged 94 on 23rd August. You were a man of honour, integrity and faith whose words were few but whose actions were many and who was admired and respected by all who knew you and who we, as your family were proud to call Dad. Dad's early career from 1948 - 1966 was with the Department of Conservation & Extension where he was instrumental in the building of dams, roads and other infrastructure and providing advice and professional assistance to many of the newly established commercial farms in Matabeleland and the Midlands. After a twenty five year career with Fedmis Fertilizers in South Africa he and our mother Lyn( nee Metelerkamp) retired in Perth. RIP Dad. With love from Allen, Graham, Nabeel, Shaynne and families. ++++ Joe Deeney has passed away. A great man with an equally great heart..
