I HAVE NOT TRIED THIS BUT THEY TELL ME THAT .... MOBILE USERS - 112 NUMBER CAN BE DIALLED WITHOUT SIM CARD DURING EMERGENCY !! The Emergency Number worldwide for GSM Mobile is 112 and not 999 . You can dial 112 even without a Sim Card. This number 112 can be dialled even while the keypad is locked (check on your mobile). If you find yourself out of coverage area of your mobile network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you. Do share this important info with others too. Hope you'll never need to use it though.

NEWSLETTER - SENIOR CITIZENS MEDICAL TRUST FUND
Hello everyone. SCS has made great advances in the last month in securing more donations both in cash and kind and we would like to take this opportunity to thank those that have so generously supported us. We still need alot more, so please guys any help would be appreciated! We have had contact with various pharmaceutical companies in the country and hopefully we will be receiving donations for bandages, non-prescription drugs, vits, creams, powders, etc. If anyone knows of other Companies or people that may be able to assist in this line please contact either myself or Doreen Tod on Byo 280720. These products go along way in alleviating bedsores, dry skin, regular headaches, everyday aches and pains, etc.
Our ambulance service from EMRAS has been used a few times this month to transport our elderly to hospital due to broken femurs and infections of break-ages. This all costs the Trust money so people please help us to help them.
SCS is also undertaking a registration of our Senior Citizens so that we will know their requirements when they need assistance. If you know of anyone that might want to register please contact us with the details.
I would just like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their donations, help and kindness, especially my Hubby Craig who is a great support and Doreen Tod who works quietly behind the scenes as well as Celine Schiejde for her assistance.
THANK YOU FOR CARING, IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Best regards

Zimbabwe Jewish comunity - Bulawayo graves

ANTI HIJACK TRUST BULAWAYO UPDATE written and compiled by Tracey Burns 18/02/05
A few people have told me of the following incidences that have taken place within the last month.
- Cellphones In View - One woman sitting at a traffic control light with the rain pouring down, saw a man give a really good "once over" look inside her car and she realised if the cell had been of a more recent model, the man would have smashed her window and stolen it. That was a wake up call for her and she now makes certain her cell phone is out of view of everyone. To secure your windows with film that prevents the window smashing completely and shattering everywhere, please contact Carguard who will fit the film to your car. When you go in, just mention my name and they will help the Trust out in Bulawayo with whatever we may require.
- Observed by a schoolgirl sitting in her mother's car. A woman dashed into a shop to buy some cigarettes, leaving her digital camera on the floor of the passenger side in her car. Whilst the woman was in the shop, one guy tampered with her lock, then managed to open the window and stole the camera, whilst his accomplice pushed himself in front of the woman in the shop to do the following: make certain she was still there; to distract her with his brashness of wanting to be served before her; and also to block her view of the car. This is not a new method of robbery, in fact there is usually up to 4 men around that will watch from various positions, all doing something that the victim will not be aware of. Again, keep things out of view, so that they don't smash and grab and be aware of the gangs that roam around in various areas. Again Fife Street is a very hot area from 14th Avenue to Leopold Takawira Ave.
- Lay-byes - When travelling from City to City in Zimbabwe, please be very cautious about stopping at Lay byes. One couple, thinking everything was all right when they could see no-one around, stopped for a break, and were attacked by 2 men who came out of the bushes. Luckily some people passing by, stopped and helped them. Not an experience anyone should go through on the roads.
- Unattended vehicles in National Parks - Please do not leave vehicles unattended especially at White Rhino caves if you happen to go there during the week. There is no guard on duty, and one lady with children and her friend came back to find their car had been broken into with various items stolen. She not only has the hassle of replacing the window, but to pay for a new tyre, as they had slashed it a number of times.

TEENAGERS
Parents and Teenagers must revert back to the old days of talking and informing each other where they are going etc,. This is being proven throughout the world that we have all got too lax in enquiring and giving "space", but this is becoming detrimental in the end and we need to reinforce it back into our lives - take an interest in your children and adults behave responsibly by also informing them where you are going for the evening. Herewith are a few tips to let each other know:
1. Where you're going.
2. Whom you expect to meet.
3. What time you're supposed to meet.
4. Any secondary destination - having met someone, you might go on to another place, for instance.
5. How and along what route you intend to travel.
6. When you expect to return.
7. What to do if you don't return when you're expected to.
(tips taken from Reader's Digest SAFE, SECURE and STREETWISE p163)

Dear Friends,
We have had a great last three months with Old Umtali often bursting at the seams. We are so grateful to the wonderful people who have supported us as we have tried to turn Old Umtali into a place that you will want to keep coming back to. We apologise to those we have had to turn away, but the good news is that we now have an additional suite ready for you! This room, off the courtyard, is larger with enough space to accommodate a family. And it has a fully equipped kitchenette for those who prefer to self-cater. The other exciting news is that we have had ADSL installed in all our rooms. Our guests are now able to connect to the Internet 24 hours a day, at no extra cost. Plug in and check your mail, catch up on the news or tune in to Radio Siberia, all for free! And prompted by the heat of summer, we have put fridges into our guest rooms. So the next time you are in our area, please do remember Old Umtali Guest House. ( www.oldumtali.co.za )
With our very best wishes,
Terry and Gloria.
Every now and again, if we have something interesting to report, we send an email to the people in our address book. If you would rather not receive the email, please just let me know. (People are very sensitive about spam nowadays!) On the other hand, if you think that some of your contacts might one day have the need for a comfortable bed in Fourways, please do pass this email on to them. Please use terry@oldumtali.co.za.
