INTERESTING VIEWS FROM A ZIMBABWEAN ABROAD ON EARTH HOUR AND OTHER THINGS
Well I took a peek outside my window and was blinded by the lights it appeared I was the only poor sod heeding the call in my local neighbourhood. Surprisingly Australia has a good number of pretty old cars, I've even seen a few Datsun 120Y's! On a similar note, there was a news report here on the local TV warning/informing the public of how toxic the fumes from petrol is, they used some sort special camera that has technology to film the fumes while a random person was filling their tank at a station, so anyway these fumes are really harmful to the person filling up his/her tank. So what's new, we just live on a poisoned planet. So in the grand scheme of things Margaret, being born in Africa has its advantages, Africa lags behind in development, so the air there is just that much cleaner. So do me a favour step out into your garden and take a deep breath of fresh air for me : )
By the way I purchased a pack of recycled toilet paper at the local supermarket - what dreadful quality! Our recycled toilet paper in Zim was/is far superior (not sure if softex and others are still operational) . But then we had been recycling stuff long before it became "environmentally correct or fashionable" , UDI had its positive side. Oh another thing I'm a little peeved, I bought a bottle of Mazoe from a shop that sells SA goodies and the Mazoe was the only Zim item they had. The next time I went there, they had Mazoe but it wasn't made in Zimbabwe, it was made in South Africa! What on earth happened to Schweppes in Zim? Did they close down? Relocate? I am spitting mad, Mazoe is a Zimbabwean icon and we have so few, what's up with that? Do you know anything about this Margaret? The Australian's were hopping mad a year ago when their icons Vegemite and Tim Tams were bought over by an American company, so I guess I should shut up and accept globalisation.
thoughts from Mahendra in Oz
Herewith some feed back (excuse the pun) from the Old Age Homes Dinner held at the Verity Amm Hall on Friday 27th March for Coronation Cottages. As always the people of Bulawayo rallied together to make a fun night for the Old Folk, the hall was filled to capacity, in all about 200 people including about 30 volunteer helpers and the local security guards were fed. There was even an excess of food which was dropped off at the Barbara Burril Blind Home the next day, enough to feed the 24 Residents and the staff of the Barbara Burril Blind Home for a few days!
For accountability reasons a special mention and thanks needs to be made to the following generous people who helped make the occasion possible:-
Bruce Parnham and Tammy Glendinning (Ascot Farm Fresh) for the fresh veggies.
Mr. & Mrs. John Dicey for their generous cash donation and for coming all the way from Gwanda to play their mouth organ, guitar and piano accordion music on the night.
Mr. & Mrs. Bill Graney (SA) for the imported tinned fruit and 5 liters of cooking oil.
Rory and Lee Nesbit for the sherry.
Ian and Paula McKenzie for the fresh veggies and cooldrinks.
Boetie York for the discounted meat, and for cutting of the meat.
John Sharpe for the cash donation.
Pete Moss ( SA) for the cash donation.
Terence and Sarah McAllister, who help to make the meal possible, for their help in cooking, for the drinks and the fantastic quiz prizes .
Oliver Nurden ( Olly) for the imported cokes and help on the night.
Shylocks Hairstylists for the prizes.
Sedgemore Dairies, for the milk and cream.
George Kaufman (SA) for the canned veggies.
Andre Zietsman for the drinks.
Mike McAllister for the ice-cream.
Allan Ogden for the drinks.
Lori and Chris Albon for the DVD.
Mo and Ishmael of Jasbro for the rice.
Jackie Ogsten Willows of Ref-Air for the personal delivery of Ice and Puddings on the night.
Lesley Clift for the rice.
Shane and Sharon Raaf for the veggies and help on the night.
The anonymous kind Lady who was shopping in the Rand Shop, for the rice ???
Darren Winterbore for the donation.
The Staff of Coronation Cottages, and especially Lisa for all the help and for the use of the Hall, cutlery and utensils.
Wayne Radue and Rose Blair for the singing and help.
Avril Jardine for the preparation, help, prizes and compeering on the night .
Scott Brown and Warren King for the sound preparation and DVD presentation, and help on the night.
The Rock Christian Church Youth band for the music and help on the night.
Sandy Evans for her CD player, and help on the night.
The fantastic Ladies from the Rock Church ( too many to name) for all the fantastic Puddings and the help.
All the many willing Ladies, Gents, Youth and Kids of the Rock Church, who came on the night to help prepare the hall, to serve, to wash and to clean up afterwards, without whom it would not have been possible to have the meal.
Little Tamlyn Ogilvy and Emma Raaf for the flute playing and entertainment.
The sisters and friends of some of the Rock congregation, whose names I don't know?
And for all the other people whose names I may have forgotten to mention, I apologize?
Its really amazing just how the people of Byo rally together to support this type of function especially when its for the Old Folk, and even more amazing when people give of themselves to help, to serve and are not even asked to do so. they just make themselves available, with a servants heart !
Many of those who gave towards this dinner were battling financially themselves !
Mags, whilst we are on the subject, there is a tremendous need for help at the Ingutsheni Hospital, people are dying of hunger, 3 patients have died from starvation just this last week, and there will be many more unless we, the citizens of Byo, do something about it!!
There is a very dedicated group of people being driven and motivated by Messias (tel no 0912842164) Willy and Nicky (tel no 011713258) and Paula (tel no 0912568028) who give faithfully of the time as often as possible especially Fridays when they go into the Hospital, with food and themselves, to give of their time, because they have been there and seen the need themselves. WHAT can you the MM readers do to help?
Nearly everyone is happy to help in one way or another, to do something, or to give something even if it is only time, but the problem is that they have to be prompted or asked. If you wait for any more asking its going to be too late !!
Innocent People are dying and we have to, we need to do something. Tomorrow is going to be too late for some !!
There is some left over cash that was given to me as a donation to do what ever I thought was necessary, I trust that the givers approve for it to go towards food for Ingutsheni !!
Regs Graham Jardine.
STOLEN VEHICLE
As many of you have heard, on Monday (23.03.09) I had a bad experience. When I returned home at 9pm, there were 2 men waiting in my garden, who held me up at knife point, ransacked my house looking for money, and stole a number of items - the most important being my car and my laptop. I am a bit battered and bruised both physically and mentally, but otherwise fine.
I am very grateful to my neighbours who have rallied round me and given me so much support & help - in particular Beryl Castle Ward and Marilyn & Peter Sissons. My thanks also to all the many people who have contacted me to wish me well - I really appreciate your kindness and concern. While I know it is unlikely any of the property will be recovered, lucky coincidences do happen.
So I list below details of the car and laptop. Also in the car were all the paper related to Marwell Zimbabwe Trust's 2008 accounts - a cardboard box containing 6 box files. As these have no value to anyone else they may well have been dumped, so if you see a box of files lying at a dump or in an alley way, please check them out as we would be very pleased to recover the documents. I can be contacted at work on 011 366 916 or at home on 882242.
Many thanks

GUINEA FOWL FEATHERS NEEDED FOR A BULAWAYO ARTIST
email magskriel@mac. com
Hi Everyone
An odd thing happened to me this week and worth passing on.
My wife Mary Ann and her brother Barry both work at a large hospital in our city Christchurch NZ, Barry being an Orderly there tending to the needs of mainly old folk.
Well yesterday Barry told Mary Ann that an elderly lady in one of the wards told him she was from Rhodesia and had taught some Fairbridge children there, so Barry told her he had a copy of 'Windows' about Fairbridge compiled and published by me and would be pleased to lend it to her.
What are the odds of this meeting and connection revelation happening???
I phoned Barry last night saying I would like to meet her personally and give her a courtesy free copy. This meeting with her took place at 2.00pm today, Friday.
Her name is Shirley Barker and she was born in Salisbury, in due course teaching at Evelyn Girls High School in Bulawayo in the 1950s/60s where she said she taught some of our Fairbridge girls.
She was most appreciative in being given a copy of the book but said she only had a few days to live so was reluctant to take it. I insisted this was more reason for her being given this gift so she asked me to say a few choice words in it and sign it, which I did.
I showed her photos of the girls in the book saying, from memory, Susan and Nina Charman, Betty Wood, Sylvia Pettitt and some of the others in the photos went to Evelyn, and two of these names rang a bell to her.
We had a nice chat and she said she and her husband shifted to South Africa in the 1980s and when he died she came to NZ then her daughter and husband moved to Oz where they now are - that she would ensure the book was passed on to her for safe keeping. When telling her I was 71 she said she was 74, so this will put a time-frame to it, and she is taking her medical position very calmly.
Then the nurse came in to check her out so time for me to leave. I told her I would pass a message of our meeting on to all our Fairbridge people, so she would suddenly be 'world famous', which made her chuckle! She asked me to pass on her regards to any of us she might have taught.
A very nice lady and I am pleased to have made this effort to meet her personally. If any of you do remember her and have any nice message to give her then please send it to me and I will get Barry to give it/them to her. She did say some of the Fairbridge girls were a bit naughty, but then who of us weren't?!!!
Best Wishes
Peter

What is Know your Child Workshop all about? KYC, an acronym for Know Your Child is a two hour interactive workshop for all parents.
Parenting can prove to be a very rewarding experience in one's life. We would all agree that children today, thanks to exposure to so much information from various sources, are very different from children a few years ago. Because of the changes in our lifestyles, values and human relations viz. working couples, nuclear families, media exposure, single parents etc., in the recent past, parenting is also becoming a challenge with parents having to deal with many issues related to children's behaviour. Often parents are found saying some of the following :
a) He does not listen to me.
b) She does not eat properly at all.
c) My children are so hyperactive, it is so difficult to control them.
d) They are glued to TV or computer games all the time.
e) They run away from studies and many more.
KNOW YOUR CHILD is a two hour interactive seminar from the Art of Living Foundation which helps parents deal with several such issues by finding the root cause behind them. It gives them an insight into how children think and thus a better understanding of their behaviour. It point that small things that adults tend to overlook that may have a deep impact on children. Several hundred such workshops have been conducted benefiting many thousands of parents making their relationships with their children much more harmonious.
Date: 31 March and 1st April 2009
Four time slots : 2 morning, 2 afternoon
Time: Morning 9.30 a.m. to 11 a.m.

Greetings to all readers of the Morning Mirror.
After many months of hard work, the Tea Cup Guest House is open for business!
We are situated less than 10 mins from Heathrow in Harmondsworth. (See the house at Googlemaps.com/ street view, and type in UB7 0BH.
The large detached house, with beautiful gardens front and rear, is situated just outside a lovely little village, with 2 pubs (!) and with large parklands nearby.
There are 3 bedrooms upstairs. 2 with hand basins, main, a large room, has basin and shower.
A bathroom upstairs, with bath, loo and hand basin.
D/stairs has a separate loo, and shower room with basin.
At rear, overlooking the beautiful big garden, is a studio type room.
This massive room has a double and single bed, TV, Mini- kitchen, hand basin, dining table, easy chairs and own entrance into the main house, plus a separate entrance from outside, giving it independence.
There is a big lounge with comfortable seating, Sky+ TV, DVD player and for those pianists among you, a beautiful 1830 Collard grand piano!!!!
We also have full Broadband Internet access and ability to phone abroad using Skype (much cheaper!)
A large dining room with fine antique furniture is available to residents for scrumptious Zim breakfasts.
Lunch and dinner is available at extra cost and from a set menu.
As smoking is not permitted inside the house (UK law), there is a seating area inside the garage, or if the weather is fine, seating outside.
Over weekends, there are facilities for braai. There is a South Africa shop ten mins down the road with maize meal, biltong, dry wors, boerewors etc.
Anyone in residence at the weekend, is welcome to enjoy our braais on a Saturday afternoon. These are reasonably priced and a taste of home.
As we are so close to the airport, this is ideal for folk coming in from Zimbabwe and South Africa, as the National Express coaches always stop at Heathrow.
Anyone wishing to stay but require collection, I am happy to meet you at the Central Coach Station or any of the Terminals. We are in between Term 1,2,3 and 5.
This offer is primarily targeted at ladies who are coming over to the UK to do care work.
This lovely home is ideal to stay at, in between care placements or indeed upon arrival in the UK prior to taking up care work.
However, any of my fellow country folk are most welcome to stay here!
Our rates are competitive and reflect the type of accommodations expected of a lovely big English house.
Please do not hesitate to contact me for further details or to make a booking.
As this is a small business, we do not have debit or credit card facilities. We accept cash or UK cheques.
Many thanks for taking the time to read this and I look forward to seeing you soon.

TUITION ( MATHS, PHYSICS, AND CHEMISTRY) AND
IT CONSULTANCY
Is your son or daughter having difficulty with O or A Level Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry?
Do the A Level classes contain 30 students rather than 10? Classes this size do not allow for much individual help.
If so, I can coach your son or daughter in the above subjects, having had 35 years experience teaching these subjects. I take only one student at a time, which ensures that the student has individual attention and help.
Are you having problems with expensive inflexible payrolls?
If so, I can develop an extremely reasonably priced tailor made payroll system for your business, mine, farm or institution.
I also offer computer courses in MS Windows operating system, MS Word word processing, MS Excel spreadsheet, MS Access database, MS Project Project Design, desk top publishing, AutoCAD computer aided design,
MS Outlook Express e-mail, Internet browsing and search,
Corel Draw, Corel PhotoPaint graphic design and digital photography.

Two lovely little doggies looking for good, loving homes. Owners
emigrating and devastated about leaving their "kids" behind. Both dogs
only just out of puppyhood at 18 months old. The male is a jack russell
cross wiry haired fox terrier and very faithful and lovable. The female
is a foxy cross toy pom who enjoys lots of attention & affection.
Both
have been fully vaccinated and the female has been spayed. It would be
preferable if both could go together as they have been good friends
since birth. Would suit an elderly couple looking for company and lots
of affection or a family with youngsters as both doggies are very
playful and gentle.
