Smash and grab at Pick n Pay ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN Tuesday’s early-morning quiet was shattered at Pick n Pay in the Hermanus CBD when a car smashed through the glass front doors to pull off an ambitious smash-and-grab robbery. According to Lt Fadila September, Hermanus Police spokesperson, an employee was on his way to fill the ATM at the front of the store, carrying two boxes filled with cash, when the robbery happened at around 06:45. It was shortly before opening time. A silver Volvo reversed into the

glass doors at the Main Road entrance of the store, sending thousands of shards of glass flying through the air. A man grabbed the boxes before jumping into the vehicle, which sped off quickly at the hands of a getaway driver. According to Lafras Lombard, an eyewitness, he was standing across the road at the Shell Garage when he heard a loud crash. “It was like watching a Jason Stratham action movie in the street! I saw the vehicle had crashed into the Pick n Pay and a second man came running across the road. “He ducked into the store and

2 HermanusTimes Two armed robberies in Fisherhaven
Nuus News
3 July, 2014
ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN Two armed robberies took place in Fisherhaven over the weekend. A man was admitted to hospital and his wife was left traumatised after a robbery at their home in China Marais Street. According to police spokesperson Lt Fadila September, four men gained access to the home at 18:45 on Sunday 29 June. “The man of 42 was alerted when his dogs started barking. Four men wearing balaclavas entered his living room.” The attackers threatened him and asked for cash and the keys to the safe. They then
stabbed the victim in the stomach, arm and head with a knife before fleeing with two revolvers, cellphones and cash. In the second incident on Sunday night, a group of men, also wearing balaclavas targeted a local restaurant. According to Lt September, the owner of the Blue Roof Pub, Restaurant and Chinese Takeaways in Fisherhaven, a woman, was working late on Sunday night when a group of men silently entered the restaurant at about 00:30. They threatened her with an axe, threw her onto the ground and fled from the building with cash, a laptop and cellphone. Anyone with information may call the Hermanus SAPS detective branch on 082 313 7000.
Bejaarde in Eastcliff beroof ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN ’n Bejaarde man is die afgelope naweek in Hillstraat, Eastcliff, helder oordag in sy huis beroof. Volgens lt. Fadila September, die Hermanus-polisiewoordvoerder, het die 80-jarige man om sowat 15:00 Saterdag 28 Junie televisie gekyk toe hy ’n geluid in die huis hoor. “Hy het eers gedink dit is sy vrou, maar toe hy nóg ’n geluid hoor, het hy gaan onder-
soek instel. “Hy het op twee mans afgekom wat hom toe met sy skoenveters vasgemaak het en beroof het.” Die rowers het op vlug geslaan met ’n iPad, beursie en ander items ter waarde van sowat R24 500. Niemand is nog in hegtenis geneem nie. Enigeen met inligting kan die ondersoekbeampte, AO Raymond Fischer bel by 028 313 7000.
Diewe vasgetrek ná vinnige optrede ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN Besoekers aan Paradise Park is die naweek deur diewe geteiken, maar weens die flink optrede van die plaaslike polisie is die gesteelde goedere teruggevind. Volgens Martha Wandrag, ’n inwoner van Paradise Park, was sy Sondagoggend op pad na haar kantoor, toe sy twee jong mans aangestap sien kom. “Hulle het ’n handsak opgetel en gevra of ek weet wie die vrou op die bestuurslisensie is. “Hulle het die handsak by ons kantoor gelos en hul nommer gelos vir ingeval die polisie hulle sou wou ondervra.” Kort daarna het ’n jong meisie ingeloop en gevra of enigiemand iets gehoor het van selfone en haar handsak wat gesteel is. “Ons het toe gehoor dat die diewe toegang gekry het tot hul woning en verskeie items gesteel terwyl hulle gelê en slaap het.” Die polisie is na die toneel ontbied en ao. Ste-
ven Koen van die polisie se honde-eenheid het gehoor van die voorval en ook by die toneel opgedaag. “Binne ’n halfuur was Steven terug by ons kantoor om ons te laat weet dat die verddagtes aangekeer en die gesteelde goedere teruggevind is. Ons is regtig dankbaar vir die fantastiese diens wat ons gekry het.” Volgens lt. Fadila September van die Hermanus-polisie het hulle dié klag van diefstal ontvang waar besoekers aan die park gesien het een van die kombuisvensters is uitgehaal. Die Hermanus-polisie se honde-eenheid is ontbied en twee 24-jarige verdagtes is in hegtenis geneem. Albei het reeds in die plaaslike landdroshof verskyn. Verskeie vermoedelik gesteelde items is ook in hul besit gevind, waaronder kameras, Apple iPods, Samsung-selfoonlaaiers, handsakke en klere. Die mans is in hegtenis geneem met die hulp van ao. Steven Koen en konst. Sefton Nell.

Grondwater kelder begrafnisse ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN Twee begrafnisse moes die afgelope naweek uitgestel word omdat hoë grondwatervlakke in Mount Pleasant dit onmoontlik gemaak het om daarmee voort te gaan. Volgens die plaaslike bestuurder van Anré Begrafnisdienste, Anthea Woolstencroft, is dit die eerste keer in haar 23 jaar ondervinding in die bedryf dat sy só ’n probleem ondervind. “Ons sal gewoonlik die oggend voor die diens gaan ondersoek instel om seker te maak alles is in orde vir die teraardebestelling en dan kan ons dadelik aan die familie terugvoer gee. In dié geval het die water deurgesypel tot sowat 15 cm van die borand van die graf en het die familie dadelik geweier om voort te gaan met die diens. “Die huisdiens sowel as die diens by die kerk is wel gehou, maar die begrafnis self is uitgestel tot Woensdag.” Volgens Woolstencroft bied hulle die diens Woensdag gratis aan die familie aangesien die omstandighede buite hul beheer was. “Dit was egter uiters traumaties vir die familie.” Nashca Begrafnisondernemers, wat die tweede diens behartig het, moes ook die teraardebestelling uitstel tot later vandeesweek. “Die munisipaliteit was uiters tegemoetkomend en het Maandag dadelik ’n nuwe graf uitgewys. Dit was egter die eerste keer dat die probleem só erg was dat
ons die diens heeltemal moes uitstel.” Volgens Roderick Williams, direkteur: gemeenskapsdienste by die Overstrandmunisipaliteit, ontstaan die probleem periodiek as gevolg van hoë reënval wat lei tot ’n hoë grondwatertafel in die gebied van die begraafplaas en ook elders langs die kus. “Die munisipaliteit ondersteun sy verantwoordelikheid teenoor naasbestaandes en begrafnisondernemers deur sover moontlik water uit te pomp. “Geaffekteerde families en begrafnisondernemers moet slegs vroegtydig die diens aanvra by die betrokke administrasie.” Volgens Williams kan die probleem oor die kort termyn opgelos word deur die diepte van die grafte tot 1,5 m te beperk. “Laasgenoemde oplossing is ook toelaatbaar in terme van die standaard verordening insake begraafplase. “Sugdreinering word ook beplan aangrensend aan die suidelike grens van die begraafplaas wat deel is van ’n behuisingsprojek. Vermelde projek word voorsien om binne die volgende vyf jaar afgehandel te word.” Die munisipaliteit het verder gesê dat hulle ’n alternatiewe perseel beskikbaar sal stel wanneer die grondwaterprobleem nie opgelos kan word nie. “In Mount Pleasant se geval sal Hermanus of Onrus se begraafplase ’n alternatief wees. Die tariewe vir grafpersele is oor die hele Overstrand gestandaardiseer. Die betrokke families en ondernemers is reeds hieroor in kennis gestel.”
In case of emergency In case of emergency or to report any suspicious vehicles, persons or activity in your ar-
ea, call the Hermanus Police Station at 028 313 5300 / 5348 / 5349.

According to police spokesperson Lieutenant Fadila September, the Hermanus Police were called to Sisulu Street at 00:35. “Members found the man lying on the side of the street.

Estuaries breach simultaneously The Klein River lagoon breached naturally late Friday afternoon and, would you believe it, the Bot River lagoon breached early on Saturday morning. Anthony Heyns, a long-time resident of Hermanus who is fascinated by the Klein River estuary, (“The Mond”) and has documented the imminent opening for the past month or more, says by 26 June the Klein River had become the Groot River because it was so full and looked ready to breach. He says there was lots of water in the estuary because of the recent heavy rains. By Friday morning the mouth still had not opened, but by late afternoon, as Heyns says, nature pulled the plug and the water burst through into the sea. “The turbulence created by a huge flood of water tumbling through a tiny neck, which it enlarges with astonishing speed, produces standing waves. Unlike rolling waves, they stay in more or less the same place, breaking constantly as the river water meets sea water,” explains Heyns. Two surfers braved this turbulent water to take advantage of the standing waves. Heyns says the dimensions of the river mouth on Friday evening were about 20 metres wide by 40 metres long. By Satur-

By Saturday 28 June, Heyns says a huge tonnage of beach had disappeared after the estuary had opened the night before. “A huge volume of sand had washed into Walker Bay, accompanied by water, brown with pollution,” he said. According to Robin Perrins, chairperson of the Bot River Es-

tuary Forum (BREF) breaching sub-committee, a natural breach occurred at the Bot River lagoon in the early hours of Saturday morning, 28 June. He says it was probably aggravated by the rapid rise in the water level of the lagoon due to the excessive June rainfall and by the high tide at 03:47 on Saturday morning. Perrins says the lagoon was artificially breached on 24
August last year to counter the drop in salinity levels and the high water level of 2,81 m above mean sea level (AMSL). “It was only considered officially closed on 10 June 2014. This has been the longest period that the lagoon has remained open and tidal following a breach. As a result, it has remained in a very healthy state,” he said. “Saturday’s breach occurred at 1,92 m AMSL, which obviously indicated that the sand berm that closes the mouth had some way to go to build up and consolidate.” Perrins says the width of the breach on Saturday morning was between 25 m and 30 m and that there was an extremely strong outflow from the lagoon as the tide receded. “Should we still have good winter rains, the lagoon may remain open for the duration of winter,” predicts Perrins. “Water-craft users must exercise considerable care in the area of the mouth as the current is very strong. We would not like a repeat of the incident last year when two kayakers were swept out into the breakers, which could have had serious consequences,” warns Perrins. He says last week’s Hermanus Times, quotes the overall average rainfall for June as 76,5 mm (the average taken over a 20-year rainfall period), whereas the total June 2014 rainfall was 173,8 mm.
Two surfers braved the turbulent water to take advan tage of the standing waves that were created where the Klein River lagoon water met sea water.
The Bot River lagoon also breached naturally this past weekend.

Verbeterde planne lei tot behoud van kerk ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN Die Vrye Gereformeerde Kerk (VGK) in Stanford moes hul planne om dié kerk te vergroot vir eers stopsit ná dit aan die lig gekom het dat die gebou erfenisstatus behaal het en dat hulle glad nie aan die buitekant van die gebou veranderings mag aanbring nie.
Die uitbreidings van die Stanford VGK is vir eers stopgesit. Die hoeksteen lees “Jesus Christus self is die hoeksteen. Efs. 2:20. Gelê 24 Mei 1952.”

Alhoewel hulle geld gaan verloor vir werk wat reeds voltooi is, het die nuwe verwikkelinge ’n positiewe kant aangesien die verbouings die kerk nou minder sal kos. Volgens die hoof-ouderling, Maureen Diedericks, het die klein kerkie, wat in 1952 gebou is, te klein geword vir hul gemeente. “Vroeër het ons aannemings en doopdienste in Gansbaai gehou. Dit het egter nodig geword om dié dienste ook hier in Stanford te hou en die gebou was net nie meer groot genoeg nie. “Verder kan ons glad nie funksies hou nie aangesien ons nie die nodige kombuisgeriewe tot ons beskikking het nie.” Die planne om die gebou groter te maak sodat hulle meer mense kan akkommodeer, is in 2005 opgestel en goedgekeur, en bouwerk het kort daarna begin. Tans staan die mure dakhoogte. Stanford is in 1996 as ’n bewaringsgebied, onder die Wet op Nasionale Gedenkwaardighede, verklaar. Dit het gelei tot die stigting van die Stanford Conservation Trust, wat dan ook met die behoud van die dorp se erfenis gemoeid is. Volgens Bea Whittaker, die voor-
sitter van die trust, is die planne verouderd, veral na die Overstrand-munisipaliteit hul erfenisverslag in 2010 goedgekeur het. “Daar mag glad nie aan die gebou, wat vanjaar 62 jaar oud is, se buitekant verander word nie. “Enige veranderinge aan ’n gebou wat as ’n gedenkwaardigheid gesien word, moet deur die Wes-Kaapse Erfenisraad goedgekeur word.

A group of six independent business consultants in Hermanus combined to run a seminar at the Whale Coast Hotel on 18 June, under the banner of Better Business Solutions. The group plans to run periodic seminars focusing on different aspects of business management. At the seminar, executive coach Yolanda MacIntyre explained the concept and success of executive coaching in developing business leaders, and the importance of paying attention to all aspects of business consistently. Doug Parker, retail strategist, stressed the importance of understanding your market in order to be more successful, and showed how markets can be segmented to get greater insight into people’s needs and wants using age and education as the key factors. He showed that the income profile in Hermanus was surprisingly modest. Trevor Schouw, director of Adams Schouw and Cain chartered accountants, highlighted the importance of preparing proper budgets based on market conditions and your business strategy, and managing your performance against that. Dan Acker, labour law practitioner, made
attendees aware of the many pitfalls in the labour law environment, the myths people have about labour relations, and ways for business owners to avoid these pitfalls and dispel the myths; by knowing the facts, sticking to the rules, and leaving the details in the hands of knowledgeable experts. Peter Kunz, hospitality consultant, gave some tips on how to make meetings more effective, and how to deal with disruptive forces in meetings, while Barbara Minne, marketing consultant and graphic designer, gave a presentation on the use of social media to grow your business. As the first in the series, the seminar covered a wide field in terms of general business management. Future seminars and workshops are planned to focus on more specific issues, and the local Hermanus market. Parker says: “The seminar was a great success, and we filled all the seats we’d planned with some 25 delegates attending. From the speaker rating sheets it was clear that the delegates enjoyed the seminar and found it very helpful. We even had one delegate who drove through from Cape Town, and asked to be kept informed of further seminars.

How boatbased whale watching companies keep passengers safe KERRY VAN RENSBURG A reader sent in a photo taken on Sunday 22 June of in and outbound passenger-laden whale cruisers passing each other at the New Harbour. He asked the question: “Why would the skippers display differing risk assessments in evidently similar conditions regarding the use of life vests?” The Hermanus Times investigated the safety precautions that whale watching boats follow to ensure the safety of their passengers. Nina Cronje, manager of The Whale Watchers, a boat-based whale watching company working out of the New Harbour, says their boat can carry a maximum of 36 passengers. She says passengers are required to sign an indemnity form. During the peak whale season in Hermanus, they do an average of four whale watching trips a day and 80% of their passengers are foreigners. A safety briefing takes place before departure. Life jackets are placed within easy reach and emergency disembark procedures are explained. The wearing of life jackets while on board is optional for adults, but small children are obliged to wear them. Phillipus May from Hermanus Whale Cruises says their boat can take a maximum of 87 passengers. He says passengers receive a ticket and on the back it is printed that the passenger accepts that the owner of the vessel or the company will not be held liable for any damages as a result of any injuries whatsoever for any cause while a passenger is on the vessel or while embarking or disembarking from the vessel. May says his company also does four trips a day at 09:00; 12:00; 14:00 and 16:00 at the height of the whale season.
Whale watching boats based at the New Harbour pass each other, with adult passengers on board the boat on the left having the option as to whether they want to wear life jackets or not, and the boat on the right insisting that all their passengers wear life jackets.

He says 99,9 % of their passengers are foreign visitors. “Before going on board, we give a talk on safety and what must be done in case of emergency. “We also explain why we require all our passengers to wear a life jacket. We also mention that we have life rafts on board that can host up to 100 passengers. “The five crew members know what to do in an emergency. They will report to the skipper and he will give the instructions,” explains May. He says depending on the situation, the skipper will decide whether to discharge the
anchor, call for assistance by radio, launch the life rafts or to abandon the boat. Robin Alcock from Southern Right Charters says their catamaran Miroshca is licensed to carry 70 passengers and five crew. “During our whale season, from June to December, we offer daily whale watching trips at 09:00,12:00 and 15:00 with arrival time 30 minutes prior. All trips are weather permitting. “On arrival at our booking office, guests sign our indemnity form and receive tickets for their tour. “Many of our guests are foreign visitors but in recent years there has been a noticea-
ble increase in local guests. “Our boat not only complies, but is equipped above the South African Maritime Safety Authority (Samsa) regulations to ensure our passengers’ safety. “The safety and comfort of passengers is primary, the catamaran design was chosen for its superior stability.” Alcock says crew on board are well versed and trained in all aspects of safety at sea. Their boat has set drills with regard to emergency situations, which are practised on a regular basis. “Prior to boarding, our whale specialist guide gives a verbal briefing of about 15 minutes; this incorporates some of the educational aspects of our operation, as well as a safety briefing. “As per our Samsa rating, all children under 12 years must wear a life jacket at all times. “We provide life jackets in various sizes and children are issued one at our booking office where our crew assists parents to fit them securely. For adults, life- jackets are optional as per our Samsa rating,” Alcock says. How to don the life jacket is explained and demonstrated during the land briefing. Alcock says: “Guests are offered a life jacket before leaving the harbour and they are also visibly displayed in the main cabin.” She says there is a public address system on board with speakers placed strategically around the vessel. “Every safety feature is encompassed in the catamaran’s fixtures – from dual steering, dual navigation equipment, dual propulsion and dual dc charging systems to electronic early warning fire monitors and remote controlled engine room fire extinguishers,” assures Alcock.

The kids enjoyed face painting at the open day.
Visitors at the cattery had a good look around and played with the cats and kittens.
Cat’s tea party at HAWS A unique tea party was held at the Hermanus Animal Welfare Society for cat (and dog) lovers recently. The aim of the party was to make the public aware of the lovely cats in the cattery that need homes and maybe to get one or two adopted. Coffee and cake was enjoyed by the many visitors, there was face painting and colouring in for the younger ones (and some older ones too) and, most importantly, the meeting and cuddling of the cats and dogs. The good news is that three of the cats and one puppy at HAWS left for happy homes of their own, with a few more having been booked for adoption later this week. HAWS would like to thank all the lovely people who visited, the staff who gave their time on the day, the volunteers who helped with the arrangements and the sponsors (Yvette of Yves’s Pudding and Pie, Dieter of Function Hire and the face painters Claire Parker and Alex Forsyth).

Top 10 tips for your pet 1. Identify your pet with a microchip along with a collar and tag. Include details such as name, your number, address and if you can include the vets de tails. Some even have space to add medical condi tions. Remember with cats to use collars that have a slip release! 2. Start early with dental care. Have their teeth checked regularly. Most vets will do dental checks free of charge. 3. Don’t forget monthly flea and tick treatments, along with a regular deworming schedule. preven tion is better than cure. 4. Offer your pet plenty of exercise. It will keep them healthy and reduce bad behaviour that can result from boredom. Treat good behaviour and nev er treat with food from the table. There are many kinds of healthy tasty treats available. 5. Train and socialise your puppy and adult dogs frequently. It will not only give them confidence, but good mental stimulation.
6. Feed your dog twice daily, especially larger breeds. This can prevent serious health problems. For cats, some prefer nibbling all day, but others must have strict measured feeding to prevent weight problems. 7. Keep a check on weight. Most vets have walk on scales, making it easy to monitor your pets weight. An increase or decrease in weight could be a sign of health problems. 8. Spay and neuter your pet. It will keep your pet healthy and reduce costly health problems. It also has the benefit of reducing aggression and wandering. 9. Knowing your pet’s toilet habits can help you identify any changes in health. Some diseases, like kidney disease can cause an increase in urination. 10. Older pets maybe arthritic, so providing soft and warm bedding can help with stiff joints. Tips provided by Dr Maarten van Dalsen from Bergview Veterinary Clinic.

EDITORIAL COMMENT Polisie werk hard Die Hermanus-polisiekantoor was uiters besig die afgelope week met verskeie gewapende rooftogte, moord en diefstalsake wat aangemeld is. Maar te midde van al die slegte nuus, het die plaaslike honde-eenheid ook ’n klop op die skouer gekry vir uitmuntende werk. Die polisie is Sondag uitgeroep na Paradise Park waar diewe gedurende die nag verskeie items uit besoekers se woning gesteel het. Binne ’n kwessie van ’n halfuur is die twee diewe aangekeer en al die gesteelde items teruggevind. Drie polisielede is Maandag in Kaapstad in twee verskillende voorvalle vermoor. Dit is ’n ondankbare, gevaarlike en somtyds ondraaglike werk. Dus is dit prysenswaardig dat ons plaaslike lede só vinnig gereageer het op die klag. Ons is soms baie gou om te kritiseer wanneer ons nie dieselfde diens ontvang nie, maar ons is dankbaar vir die gemeenskap wat die goeie nuus ook gedeel het. Doen ook jou deel om die polisie te ondersteun. Meld dadelik verdagte persone en voertuie aan en maak die omgewing vir elkeen van ons veiliger.

Help Winnie recover from her misfortune
Thanks Stanford Police Dear Police Officers in Stanford, My husband and I would really like to thank all of you guys. We moved to Stanford in February 2013 and we are struggling with all the paperwork to do with our visas. A lot of forms like birth certificates, marriage certificates and more had to be confirmed by the police a lot of times. Every time I went to the Stanford Police Station the officers there were more than helpful. They were polite and friendly and never ran out of patience. I really do appreciate their work and wish a lot of South African villages would have a police station like ours.

Top marks for Bergview Veterinary Clinic We brought our dog, Kai in and had a very satisfying experience at Bayview Veterinary Clinic. Thank you to all the staff and especially Dr Maarten. We will refer people to this veterinary clinic and will always be grateful for the compassion they have shown us and, most of all, to our loving dog. We feel fortunate to have found a place like this to take my pets.

I am sure everyone who saw the picture in last week’s Hermanus Times of Winnie standing amongst the charred remains of her lovely bedroom, with the caption: “My own daughter did this”, were shocked and horrified to see the effects of drug addiction. All of us at the Hermanus Rainbow Trust were deeply shocked to hear that Winnie Nywebeni’s daughter, a “tik” addict had set fire to Winnie’s house causing extensive structural damage, destroying furniture, appliances, linen and clothes. Winnie, who is a well-known and respected counsellor and auxiliary social
worker, has worked for the Trust for over 10 years, tirelessly dedicating her time and effort to help children and parents in the Overstrand through difficult times. Our hearts go out to Winnie and her family and we are asking anyone who can help with donations, furniture, linen, clothing, paint, cupboards, appliances (fridge) or anything else, to contact Dave by e-mail: dave@rainbowtrust.org.za or phone: 028 316 4325 / 028 316 4325, so that we can help Winnie get back on her feet.

Onrus needs a cock crossing sign to be put up I recently attended a meeting where our chief traffic officer spoke to the gathering and answered a myriad of questions. We all thoroughly enjoyed the meeting. There was one issue though, which I have raised over a number of years and I have been promised that this matter will be attended to - in due course. Let me rewind and remind you of our dilemma. Recently, having entered Onrus Main Road after going through the traffic lights at the Kidbrooke intersection, I found that the traffic had come to a halt. Have you noticed how nicely the motorists behave? They do not hoot or display any signs of impatience because they all know that the cock, his hens and all their little chicks are crossing the road. This is one of the pleasures of Onrus Main
Road and we all love it. However, I have repeatedly over the years called for a cock crossing sign to be erected. The chickens know where to cross but we have visitors and they would surely love to see such a sign. We have a tortoise crossing sign in Northcliff so why can we not have a sign on Onrus Main Road? Making a silhouette of a rooster is not all that difficult. Any self respecting church has a weather vane with one perched on top looking out for variable winds. I make my appeal once more. We want a cock crossing sign on Onrus Main Road. This is no laughing matter. P.S. The answer to the obvious question is because the grass is greener on the other side of the road.

When a needy child asked for a pair of soc cer boots, Faith Bester from the United Church Women’s Union, had a pair in the exact size the child who made the request needed. She was so amazed to receive a thank you letter and a drawing from the 11 yearold after he received the boots.
Thank you for my brand new soccer boots Thank you very much Mrs Faith Bester for the soccer boots you gave me. I am very happy now and I was very happy to receive these soccer boots. I love playing soccer and am enjoying it more now because of the new soccer boots. Lots of Love,

Prys vir goeie diens ’n Tyd gelede het my motor ’n irriterende geklop ontwikkel wat my genoop het om die boute se balansering en die sporing te laat nasien. Alhoewel een van die boute vervang moes word, was daar steeds ’n vibrasie waarneembaar. Met die opvolgbesoek aan Supa Quick het die eienaar, Oswald Oosthuizen, dadelik ingegryp en is die balansering, die sporing, die vellings, die dryfas, en trouens alle bewegende onderdele nagegaan. Die voertuig het hy telkens self getoets-ry ens. In die tussentyd is ek steeds ingelig en beloon met koffie en ’n eet-dingetjie. Uiteindelik is die probleem opgelos en kon ek verkas sonder vibrasie, gereed om die pad te vat na Mpumalanga vir ’n bietjie warmte! Die koste verbonde aan dit alles? Kosteloos! Sedertdien is ek steeds in vervoering oor die ongelooflike puik diens en hoflikheid wat ek by hierdie sake-onderneming ervaar het. Oswald, ek, my vriende en kennisse en hopelik al die HT-lesers salueer jou en jou span.

’Do not keep on walking towards the frightened dog’ To the tall lady in the red sweater with the dachshund and big friendly mongrel puppy walking along on the coastal path in Sandbaai. When a dog runs away with its ears flattened and its tail between its legs, it is scared and does not understand that your puppy wants to play.
The most humane thing to do in such circumstances is to keep the big dog in check until the smaller dog has passed without fear. Do not keep on walking towards the frightened dog and cause it to run further and further away from its owner. If you did that this morning, a dog would
have been spared a lot of anguish and you and I could have enjoyed our walk. As to me being aggressive towards you, I hope that you would also be aggressive towards someone who allows their dog to intimidate your dog.

Building resumes at sports club
KERRY VAN RENSBURG
Building has resumed at the Hermanus Sports Club construction site, after the structure was left standing for more than two years. At a meeting in March, council approved the payment of R400 000 to the Hermanus Sports Club situated above Jose Berman Avenue, next to the Hermanus Cricket Club. The money has been earmarked to build walls and structures to secure the existing structure and to prevent any damage as a result of sagging and lack of supporting walls. Work on this development has been unable to progress as the once-off grant of R6,5 million towards the Hermanus Sports Club committee for the relocation of the clubhouse, tennis and squash courts, depended on the income derived from the transfer of Sandbaai Commonage. To date this property could not be sold and therefore no funds could be made available for the sports development. It was resolved that the amount of R400 000 be regarded as part payment of the R6,5 million. There is a possibility that a new magistrate’s court will be built on the property
where the current tennis club, tennis courts and squash court are now situated. The Department of Public Works has six months to finalise their offer for this property. The Overstrand Municipality has already spent R1,75 million on groundworks for the tennis courts and hockey field, and infrastructure for the ground and first floors of the clubhouse and squash courts. The R400 000 will move the project along. A number of construction companies have met together to offer their time and labourers to help complete different sections of the building. Anton du Plessis, a local architect involved in the development of the Hermanus Sports Club, says: “It is a team effort started by a group of builders who are prepared or able to help at the moment. The concept is to allow as many local artisans and suppliers as possible an opportunity to contribute to the project. “The current building work is a portion of the future clubhouse cloakrooms and ablutions.” Manie Theron from Theron Broers building contractors, says they are planning a teambuilding day at the sports-club construction site on Saturday 5 July. They will build, braai and contribute to this community initiative.
Yskoue, nat naweek Bangmaakstories oor die weer loop deesdae dik onder alle Kapenaars, en mense begin seker al glo dat die ganse wêreld se weerpatroon omgekrap is. Wel reken Weerhaan, nadat Hester Jordaan van Caledon skakel om te vra of Hermanus ook die naweek te midde van al die stories sneeumanne sal bou, Weerhaan glo nie so nie. In 1957 het dit laas in die Overstrand so gesneeu dat mens daarmee kon speel. En buitendien weet Overstranders ook al dat as storms en skade die land tref, is Hermanus knus agter die berg en snoesig tuis. Die antwoord aan Hester is egter geen finale woord nie want sedert Maandag was die riffelwolkies wat aan ’n sinkplaatpad herinner en ’n komende front aandui, soggens vroeg in die noordweste te sien. Gisteroggend vroeg het die oggendster telkens agter hulle in verdwyn. En woeps, toe die son opkom is hulle weg en in hul plek skuif ’n klomp koue lug nader. Op die skerm lyk dit of ons teen aand se kant (Donderdag) maar min son sal sien en dalk met 12 °C te doen sal kry. Dat ’n front wat yskristalle kan vorm in aantog is, is egter gewis. In ’n neutedop kan aan Jan Alleman verduidelik word dat yskristalle beslis aan die vorm is. Wat nou nodig is voor dit kan sneeu vorm, is koue lug grondlangs waarin vog teen minus 5 °C moet groei om vlokkies
te begin vorm. In dié stadium van ontwikkeling in die rigting van sneeuweer kan een van twee dinge gebeur; die vlokkies kan saamkoek, óf hulle kan weens stygende warm lug vanaf die grond begin smelt en in reëndruppels opbreek. Dit kom dan grond toe in die vorm van sogenaamde kouewolk reën. As die saamgekoekte vlokkies egter geen warm hindernis het nie, kom dit af grond toe en kry ons sneeu. Hier op Hermanus? Ten spyte van die ideale toestande vir sneeu wat anderkant die Hermanusberg heers, sit ons Donderdag met warm lug en ’n noordwestewind uit die Oos-Kaap wat die ys smelt en teen Vrydagoggend 11:00 begin dit sous. Daar sal beslis voor middernag in die omtrek van 25 mm in die Overstrand val. Die temperature val die naweek tot 7° Maandag en dan groei die sneeuweertoestande weer. Die tendens is egter dat ons die ergste van die front wat suid van die Overstrand verby beweeg, sal misloop.

Kalfiefees bring aangrypende dramas Teateraanhangers kan hulle regmaak vir ’n paar groot dramas wat al heelwat pryse vir die toneelstuk self sowel as die verskillende akteurs ontvang het. Rondomskrik deur Rachelle Greeff is ’n aangrypende drama wat gebaseer is op die tragiese gebeurtenis in Bredasdorp van Anene Booysen. Shaleen Surtie-Richards (Kuns Onbeperkte-vereerde vir Vertolking in 2014) skitter as die onderwyseres wat die kinders wil help en bystaan, Crystal-Donna Roberts as die tiener Antjie Fortuin, Lee-Ann van Rooi in verskillende rolle en die jongeling Richard September wat by die KKNK die prys gekry het as die beste nuweling! Vir ewig en altyd is die hartseer verhaal van die ouderdom waar ’n terminale siekte die besondere eg-
paar getref het en ’n besluit geneem moet word… Die gehoor word deel van die afskeidsritueel. Die rolle word uitstekend vertolk deur die geliefde Sandra Prinsloo en Marius Weyers, wat vir die eerste keer saam in ’n twee-persoon vetoning speel. Sandra word nie verniet in 2014 vereer met die “Kuns Onbeperk vir Vertolking” nie maar ook in April met die Orde van die Ikhamanga (silwer) van die Staatspresident. Bladsy 3 gaan oor die bekende ontkleedanseres, Glenda Kemp en haar slangmaat, Oupa. In daardie tyd van ons konserwatiewe regime, het sy die rigiede denkswyse van die tyd uitgedaag. Met haar wingerdlatlyfie en anderwêreldse danspas-sies het sy die wêreld op hol gehad. In hierdie produksie ondersoek Elma Postma en Armand Aucamp deur die oë van die media, die impak van
die ikoniese ontkleedanseres se lewe vanaf die 70’s tot die hede. Hulle ondersoek word begelei met gedramatiseerde beeldmateriaal en nuwe onderhoude en word sy en SuidAfrika opnuut ontbloot. Die Rolbalspeler is ’n verwerking van die boek deur Zain Eckleton en verwerk deur Saartjie Botha. Dis ’n ster-belaaide produksie met June van Merch, Brendon Daniels, Dann-Jacques Mouton en Nicole Holm. Hans is ’n gesiggestremde persoon wat mandjies vleg in Soutrivier. Hy bly saam met sy ma en broer in Bishop Lavis. Hy het geen vooruitsigte vir ’n beter lewe nie tot sy pad met Erika kruis en sy hom oorreed om rolbal te speel. Dis uiteindelik ’n verhaal van hoop, van uitstyg bo moeilike omstandighede en van bloed wat dikker is as water ongeag die kleur van jou vel.
Local wineries shine at SAWi awards Local wineries in the Hemel-enAarde valley were once again recognised for their exceptional wines at the South African Wine Index (SAWi) 2014 awards ceremony, which was held at Grootbos Private Nature Reserve in Gansbaai recently. Bouchard Finlayson, owned by the Tollman family, won both the overall Top Pinot Noir cultivar award for their Galpin Peak Pinot Noir, as well as the Top Red Blend (other) award (excluding Rhone and Bordeaux blend) for its Italian/French red blend, Hannibal. Sharing the privilege with Cederberg Private Cellar, it also received the most awards presented to a single winery at this year’s SAWi event. Also, the Bouchard Finlayson Tête de Cuvée Galpin Peak Pinot
Noir and the Galpin Peak Pinot Noir both won SAWi Platinums, the highest accolade that may be achieved by any single wine – with a score of 95 or more out of a possible 100. Two other Bouchard Finlayson wines were Platinum winners too: Hannibal and Kaaimansgat Crocodile’s Lair Chardonnay; whilst a Grand Gold, scoring between 93 and 94, was presented to the Walker Bay Missionvale Chardonnay. “We are very pleased with our consistent performance that reflects our efforts over the past 15 years to produce a collection of exceptional wines. We look forward to introducing even more people to the Bouchard Finlayson vintages and the unique terroir of Walker Bay that are so evi-
dent in our wines,” said Victoria Tollman. Another winery, Creation, established by husband and wife team Jean-Claude and Carolyn Martin, received a Platinum Award for its Syrah Grenache blend as well as Grand Gold for its Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon Petit Verdot blend, its Pinot Noir and its Viognier. Carolyn explained the value of these awards: “The SAWi wine judging system is based on the combined results a wine has achieved over multi vintages in different multi-national wine competitions or reviews. “As such, a wine is not judged on one occasion only, but its consistency is tracked over a period and built out to a 10-year quality window.”

Harbour Rock trains youth in hospitality KERRY VAN RENSBURG A group of 14 young, unemployed locals are being given an opportunity to learn the ins and outs of the hospitality trade thanks to the implementation of the Western Cape Government’s work and skills project at the Harbour Rock restaurant.

NOOO WK
Francois Barnard, owner of Harbour Rock, and Hamish Hofmeyr, general manager of The Marine hotel, have developed six modules for the students, who will spend six months being exposed to the different aspects of the restaurant business and hotel trade. Barnard says each student will spend a month at each of the six learning stations. These stations include: the sushi bar, the Thai kitchen, the pizza area, the bar, the hot kitchen (which is the main kitchen), as well as housekeeping and front of house at The Marine. Every month students will rotate stations. Barnard says most of the students in the group matriculated last year. He says they are “the cream of the crop” from Qhayiya Secondary who did not go on to tertiary education or find jobs. Barnard says Theo Krynauw, who has access to the school and works closely with the youth at Qhayiya, helped identify candidates for the initiative. Barnard says when he conducted
the interviews, he was very impressed with the calibre of students that were finally selected. He says after a delegation of officials from the Western Cape Government’s Department of Economic Development and Tourism visited numerous businesses in Hermanus in September last year to find out which of them would be suitable to provide training, he pursued the matter which resulted in this pilot project being initiated on 1 June. Barnard says the students work a full day from 09:00 to 16:00 and receive a stipend of R2 000 from provincial government. He says the cost to company includes uniforms, meals, transport, oversight and everything they need for the training. “We are tourist based and there are a lot of businesses here (in Hermanus) that can absorb these kids.” He says the induction process included a talk by Nebank on financial management and the opening of bank accounts for each participant. Barnard says young people can get lost in the world of unemployment and the work and skills project exposes participants to a different world. He says many of them had never tasted sushi before. At the end of the six-month training period, the students will receive a certificate of competence. Through this upliftment project, they will gain valuable work experience, which makes it easier for them to find work in future.
A survey on the use of reclaimed water is currently being conducted among residents to gauge their opinion regarding the use of reclaimed water, which includes water from the sink, bathroom and sewerage system, which has been purified. The research is being conducted by the Research Unit of CPUT (Cape Peninsula University of Technology). The two researchers, Christophe Muanda and Germaine Owen, are going to schools, community structures and general members of the public to gather information. On Thursday 19 June they met with some teachers and learners from Qhayiya Secondary School. Mogamat Kamedien, a teacher at the school, says: “The interview was quite extensive and the researchers were gathering information about what we know about reclaimed water, whether we are satisfied with the service of the municipality, are we satisfied with how the municipality communicates with residents, and what we think can be done to improve communication.”
He says the researchers wanted to know how people would feel if reclaimed water was pumped into their water reticulation system. Hanré Blignaut, responsible for the Overstrand’s water, sanitation and waste services planning, says the survey is not being done by the municipality and the two researchers are not contracted to the Overstrand Municipality. Blignaut says the project is being implemented and financed by the Water Research Commission (WRC) and they are conducting surveys in most of the municipalities in South Africa that are considering water reclamation, like the Overstrand, or in areas that have already implemented it, such as Beaufort-West, George and Mossel Bay. They are visiting these municipalities and members of the public and other role players in the community to find out how aware people are about water reclamation. Blignaut says in the Overstrand it is an option that will be considered for the medium to long term. Kamadien says the teachers all agreed that because of the shortage of water in Hermanus, they would not hesitate to drink reclaimed water as Hermanus is one
of five municipalities in the country with a consistent Blue Drop rating of 90. They said they would have no problem with the water as water reclamation has been done in Windhoek, which is regarded as the de facto standard or icon for this kind of water purification in the world. The interviewers also explained to the group how purified sewerage water is being used in Beaufort West. Kamadien says the learners initially agreed that they and their families would not use reclaimed sewerage water. But by the end of the interview, they agreed that if the community was better informed as to the cleanliness of the water, they would not mind drinking it. Learners and teachers said that drinking reclaimed water may sound offensive if people are told that the water from the toilet system is cleaned and pumped back into the water system. They say people may be reluctant to drink it. But with sufficient public awareness and a thorough education process they could understand the process better.
A survey on reclamed water was recently conducted by Germaine Owen and Christophe Muanda (on the right side of the table), researchers from CPUT Research Unit, at Qhayiya Secondary School. Teachers and learners who were interviewed included (left side of table from the front) Noncepa Sepsie Pike (teacher), Sampson Clarke (teacher), Mandisi Madolo (teacher), Thamalisa Phoyisa (learner), Jeff Mapoyi (teacher), Khay alethu Khala (learner) and Abongile Mafevuka (learner) at the head of the table.

Anne Morrow, the aviator’s wife THE AVIATOR’S WIFE by Melanie Benjamin This is a fascinating novel, based on historical facts, that gives a look inside the married life of the woman who became Mrs Charles Lindbergh – the aviator legend who was the first person to fly solo non-stop across the Atlantic (from New York to Paris) in 1927. He was only 25 years old. Then enters Anne Morrow (21), the shy daughter of the US ambassador to Mexico whom Lindbergh met while on a celebratory world tour after his flight. She was enthralled by his assurance and fame and he was as taken by what he saw as a kindred spirit, and in keeping with his meticulous cross-checking of facts and figures, deemed as “good breeding stock”. Although an equally adventurous spirit, Anne Morrow lived in his shadow for most of her life. Lindbergh was her husband, she was his chosen wife and she did his bidding. She bore him six children and many of you will remember the tragic kidnapping of their 18-month-old first born who was found buried two months later near their home. This novel, based on historical facts, focuses on the dizzy highs and devastating lows of married life to The Lone Eagle, who would be gone for months at a time in pursuit of more achievements. Anne was an “aviator” in her own right. Lindbergh had taught her how to fly and did much of his exploring and charting of air routes with her as his co-pilot. She in fact became the first licensed female glider pilot in America. This book will fascinate not only history buffs but as per the comment from People on the back cover: “it will surprise those
who know of Anne only as ‘the aviator’s wife’.” This extract gives a glimpse of the start of her married life: “May 1929 – Ceiling. Gas capacity. Wingspan. Crosswinds. Throttle. Lift. Technical terms, words I needed to absorb, definitions I needed to memorize, as part of my new role. Well-done roast beef. No sauces. Vegetables cooked to the point of desperation. Slices of white bread with every meal. A different list, but no less important. And just as vital to my new role, my new life. Had I ever been to college? Had I ever had an education? In those first few weeks of marriage to the most famous man in the world (so famous that I received tearstained letters from ingénues accusing me of stealing their future husband; so famous that instead of the groom receiving the traditional congratulations, it was I who was thumped on the back; so famous that movie stars begged us to honeymoon at their estates and directors wanted to make feature length movies of our wedding), I couldn’t believe that I had. For I had so very much left to learn. I went from knowing nothing about my husband to being expected to know everything about him.” It was towards Lindbergh’s last days that Anne also discovered a whole other side of her husband’s life, which is where the book starts off, in 1974 with a dying Lindbergh on his way to the Hawaiian island of Maui, where he eventually died of lymphoma aged 72. And she had just discovered some devastating letters he had written. Anne died at age 91, in 2001. She is not buried next to her husband, she had left instructions for her ashes to be scattered at private locations. REVIEWER: CILENE BEKKER
Book Times Gift from the Sea, by Anne Morrow Lindbergh My mother has had this book for many years and re-reads it from time to time, always prompting us (her two daughters) to read these thought-provoking meditations too. Having just read The Aviator’s Wife, this book is a must-read. I never had a look at its back cover, so I did not make the connection between the author and Charles Lindbergh – of course Anne Morrow Lindbergh was his wife. In Gift from the Sea, deemed a classic and “a wise and beautiful book”, Anne shares her meditations on youth and age, love and marriage, peace, solitude and contentment. She wrote it during a brief vaca-
tion (escape) by the sea while married, where she drew inspiration from the shells on the shore. Gift from the Sea was written in 1955 and in this reprint, the 50th anniversary edition, her daughter Reeve writes in the foreword: “There is more than peace offered in this book, and more than the comforting tidal rhythms of quiet living and quiet words. Underlying all of it is an enormous, sustaining strength. It surprises me every time I meet this strength again in full force in Gift from the Sea. I tend to forget this quality in my mother or maybe I’ve just taken it for granted.” REVIEW BY CELINE BEKKER
Kitare en ander snare Ollie Viljoen vertel Die naam Ollie Viljoen is lank reeds volksbesit. Hy is bekend as veelsydige musikant en vermaaklikheidster, sonder twyfel een van die grootste stimuleerders in die storievertel- en boeremusiektradisie in Afrikaans. Ollie se eerste boek, Kitare en ander snare – Ollie Viljoen vertel, bevat ’n versameling stories, staaltjies en insidente uit sy loopbaan, asook meer as twintig van sy gedigte, wat hy rympies noem. Ek het geskater van die lag vir Ollie se stories! Maar daar is ook ’n treurige noot; plek-plek half hartseer, veral in sommige van sy rympies, baie daarvan natuurlik as gevolg van die dag toe Ollie sy vrou en twee van sy beste vriende, Tolla van der Mer-
we en Koos Meyer, in ’n motorongeluk verloor het. Ollie was die enigste oorlewende en was tien dae lank in die intensiewe eenheid. Oor ’n tydperk van dertig jaar was Ollie regisseur van gewilde TV-programme soos Spies en Plessie en Maak ’n las. Hy word in Afrikanergeledere beskou as ’n ikoon en groot liefhebber van sy moedertaal. Dan is hierdie veelsydige karakter natuurlik ook geliefd vir sy Boeremusiekprogram op RSG. Die boek is uitgegee deur die plaaslike uitgewery, Hemel en See Boeke en is by boekwinkels beskikbaar teen R150. RESENSIE DEUR SJ DU TOIT

Syndicates, shadows and sharks KERRY VAN RENSBURG Andrew Southey’s first novel, Krabben Hood, was launched as an e-book on Kindle towards the end of last year, and on Friday 27 June, his self-published book, the hard copy version, was launched at the Book Cottage. Krabben Hood is a thriller set in Hermanus and the author’s personal experience in the business world was the catalyst for the story. The book takes its name from a mythical
octopus-like sea monster, and revolves around the underworld of perlemoen poaching. Scott Davis, a young investigator, is the main character in the story. When a severed arm that washes up on Pearly Beach is identified as that of a colleague working undercover in the Hermanus area, Scott is sent to find out who was responsible for his death. For those of us who live in Hermanus and are all too familiar with the nasty business of perlemoen poaching, Krabben Hood is a well

told tale where fact and fiction conveniently morph, so the reader is kept guessing as to the identity of some of the shady characters. The villains are not necessarily only lurking in the shadows, but on the golf course where it’s business as usual. Southey, a vet by profession, has lived in Hermanus for the past 34 years. With meticulous attention to detail he has used an experience which nearly destroyed him, to weave together a story which keeps readers guessing until the very last page. Krabben Hood retails for R190.
Did you know: According to local recreational divers, the coral reef in Walker Bay has some spectacular nudibranchs. Nudibranchs (meaning ‘nude gills’) are softbodied marine molluscs, often loosely called sea slugs, and include some of the most colourful creatures on earth. They shed their shell after their larval stage
and often have extraordinary colours and striking forms that form part of their defence mechanism. Nudibranchs occur in seas worldwide and live at virtually all depths of salt water. They range in size from 20 to 600 millimetres. They are carnivores, feeding on sponges,barnacles,anemonesand even other nudibranchs.

Help iemand om ’n prinses te wees Helen Viljoen het Princess Project al ses jaar terug begin. Met die hulp van die gemeentes van Onrus en Hermanus het sy genoeg rokke bymekaar gemaak om met die projek te begin. “Ek het ook heelwat klere, skoene en juweliersware van Erica Pienaar, die stigter van die projek gekry,” sê Helen. Project Princess is ’n geregisteerde nie-winsgewende projek. “Met die projek kan ons iemand soos ’n prinses laat voel vir ’n dag,” sê Helen. Dit kan ’n matriekafskeid wees of enige spesiale geleentheid. Om die klere aan meer meisies beskikbaar te stel, het hulle nou oopgemaak in Hawston en Sandbaai. “Almal wat vir ons rokke, trourokke, skoene en juweliersware geskenk het, wil ons hartlik bedank,” sê Helen. Enigiemand wat ’n bydrae wil maak, kan die volgende persoon skakel: Helen Viljoen (Onrus) 083 650 7131; Shunique Ryan (Hawston) 079 650 3400; Hetta Swartz: 076 697 0965 / swartzhetta@gmail.com

Nommerpas Lexus RX nou te koop QUICKPIC Die RX het die weg vir die weeldesportnuts in 1997 gebaan toe dié reeks destyds sy internasionale buiging gemaak en sedertdien een van die wêreld se suksesvolste kruismotors geword het. Trouens, die RX is los voor in Lexus-verkope in die VSA en oortref sy mees regstreekse Europese mededingers twee teen een. Die reeks geniet ook die onderskeiding dat dit die voertuig met die hoogste klantetevredenheidsindeks tot nog toe in die JD Powergehaltepeiling is. Danksy die filosofie dat “alles ingesluit” is, is ’n ruim skoot standaard-toerusting ’n absolute feit wanneer ’n mens na ’n Lexus op soek is, maar die RX350 Special Edition laat nie ’n enkele steen onaangeraak nie. Volgens Justin Ryan, hoofbestuurder van Lexus Suid-Afrika, is die RX350 Limited Edition ’n motor “wat die regte mengsel kenmerke en toerusting bied” wat die meeste kopers van hierdie motor wil hê. “Daarbenewens maak die jongste stileringsveranderings – veral die meer aggressiewe voorkant en dinamiese nuwe 19-duim-allooisierwiele – ’n duidelike stelling wat die RX sportiewer laat lyk. “Klein dog netjiese verfynings is aan die binnekant aan die beslag aangebring, veral die afstand-gemonteerde kontroleerder wat nou meer soos ’n rekenaarmuis werk. Lexus se aandag aan detail strek selfs tot die verlenging van die openingshoek van die middelkonsolekissie se deksel om dit makliker te maak om iets uit te haal – dít is nou wat ek weelde noem,” sê Ryan. Buiten die eienskappe van die reeds goed-toegeruste EX-weergawe, kry die nuwe spesiale weergawe die volgende bykomende toerusting: • Aanpasbare kopligstelsel (AFS)
Lexus se RX350 is nou beskikbaar in ’n nuwe spesiale beperkte uitgawe. ’n Rits opknappings is nou aan die verbruiker beskikbaar. FOTO: QUICKPIC – ten gunste van beter sig snags, veral op kronkelpaaie. Dié draaikopligte tesame met die hoëstraal-xenonligte (HID) draai die linker-koplig tot 15 grade en die regter-lig tot 10 grade wanneer die motor om ’n draai ry, en help om ’n groter deel van die pad te belig. Kopligwassers is deel van die standaard-toerusting. • Elektronies-verstelbare stuurkolom met geheuewerking. • Ligdiode-drumpelplate. • Deurspieëls – nou met geheuewerking. Selfs die EX-model het outomatiese voubare hulsels met outomatiese verdowwing as deel van die standaard-eienskappe. • Sykant-monitor – miniatuur-ka-
mera wat in die deurspieël aan die passasierskant ingebou is, stuur videobeelde na die voertuig se middelkonsole-skerm. Iets wat geniaal is, is dat die kamera bly werk selfs wanneer die spieëls weggevou word om deur ’n nou gaping te wikkel. Die kantspieël-monitor word deur ’n skakelaar aan die stuurwiel geaktiveer. • Bamboesbeslag vir die kajuit. Stroke sy-gladde bamboes-houtafwerking versier die stuurwiel (’n kombinasie van hout en leer), die binnekante van die deure en die instrumentepaneel en bekerhouer se afwerking, en is die volmaakte fokuspunt vir die bottersagte pikswart leer oor al die opgestopte op-
pervlakke, wat die middelkonsoleboks insluit. Neem asseblief kennis dat die voorste sitplekke nie net ingeboude verwarmers het nie, maar ook ingeboude lugverkoeling sowel as geheuewerking vir die verskillende verstellings aan al twee kante. • Weerkaatsende vertoonskerm – dié stelsel skyn eenvoudige navigasieaanwysings, klankstelsel-inligting en die voertuig se spoed teen die voorruitglas sodat die bestuurder makliker op die pad kan fokus en minder hoef af te kyk. En anders as in die geval van ander stelsels sluit dit ook ’n afstand-aftelling en rigtingpyl in wat die bestuurder deur draaie lei. • Mark Levinson-klankstelsel met
15 luidsprekers – die kern van die stelsel se super-verrigting is nie minder nie as 15 luidsprekers, wat elk doelgerig vir die spesifieke akoestiese eienskappe van, en ligging in, die binneruim ontwikkel is. Die klankstelsel bied volmaakte 7.1-kanaal-klank reg rondom vir jou gunsteling-CD, -DVD of musiek deur jou selfoon of MP3-speler. Deurslaggewende unieke verkoopspunte van die Lexus RX-reeks: • Twee enjinkeuses (3.5 V6 en Hibried-elektries) en driemodelreeks – RX 350 EX, RX 350 Special Edition en RX 450 SE. • Hersiene stilering wat onlangs verfris is vir sterker voorkant-stilering met die bekende Lexus-uurglassierrooster en L-Finessse-ontwerpkenmerke, met ’n hersiene binneruim en ’n groter keuse in kleure en beslagafwerking, ’n nuwe instrumentepaneel en die tweede generasie van Lexus se afstand-gemonteerde raakvlakstelsel. • Nuwe 19”-allooisierwiele vir die RX 350 EX. • 3.5FV6-verrigtingskenmerke – 204 kW @ 6 200 r/min en 346 Nm @ 4 700 r/min (0-100 km/h in agt sekondes met ’n gemiddelde verbruik van 10,6F/100 km) • Hibried-verrigtingseienskappe – 220 kW algehele verrigting vir die 3.5F-V6-petrolenjin met twee elektriese hoëverrigtingmotors (0-100 km/h in 7,8 sekondes/gemiddelde verbruik van 6,3F/100 km) Pryse en waarborg RX 350 EX R684 200 RX 350 Special Edition R724 000 RX 450h SE R869 000 Alle Lexus RX-modelle word gedek deur ’n waarborg van vier jaar/100 000 km en diensplan (Lexus Distance Plan Plus vir die RX 350modelle en Lexus Distance Plan Complete vir die RX 450h).

20 HermanusTimes Ford’s Figo Concept shows new vision 3 July, 2014
QUICKPIC Ford Motor Company of Southern Africa (FMCSA) are giving motorists a glimpse of its vision for a new global B-segment compact in the form of the Ford Figo Concept. The car will be shown at the inaugural Go Further event in Johannesburg on 17 July 2014. Highlighting premium design along with smart styling and safety, the concept vehicle gives an indication of the design language to be used in a future version of the popular Figo. It has also been confirmed that a production version of the Figo Concept is planned for South African and Sub-Saharan African (SSA) markets, although details and specifications have
yet to be confirmed. Ford aims to set new standards for quality and craftsmanship in the B-segment, aimed at exceeding the expectations of consumers in emerging markets. Building on Ford’s compact-car offerings, the Figo Concept illustrates how Ford plans to face growing global demand for compact vehicles. Despite its rapid growth, the compact car segmentwillremainhighlycompetitiveasincreasingly savvy buyers look for ways to make their money go further. With the goal of bringing unprecedented levels of refinement to the compact car segment, designers created the Ford Figo Concept, using design elements usually found in more expensive vehicles. Smart features like electrically adjustable power-fold mirrors are practical, helping to re-
move the stress of driving through a busy and congested environment. The mirrors also have a flexible architecture that prevents them from being broken off if bumped by another car or motor-cycle. Ford also designed the Ford Figo Concept to feature unprecedented levels of safety for its class, further enhancing peace of mind for its drivers. On the inside, the spacious cabin is filled with innovative stowage spaces. The Figo Concept also offers inventive features that bring the promise of tomorrow’s technologies to compact vehicles. With an innovative device dock, the Figo Concept introduces a new way to store, mount and charge mobile phones, MP3 players and satellite navigation systems, seamlessly integrating them with the in-car entertainment system.

Save a life with these tips • Don’t use your mobile phone whilst driv ing: Making or receiving a call, even using a “hands free” phone, can distract your at tention from driving and could lead to an accident. • Belt up in the back: In a collision, an unbelted rear passenger can kill or seriously injure the driver or a front seat passenger. • Don’t drink and drive: Any alcohol, even a small amount, can im pair your driving, so be a safe driver don’t drink and drive. • Slow down: At 60 km/h you are twice as likely to injure or kill a pedestrian than at 50 km/h. • Children: Children often act impulsively, so take extra care outside schools, near buses and ice cream vans. • Take a break: Tiredness is thought to be a major factor in more than 10% of road accidents. Plan to stop for at least a 15 minute break every two hours on a long journey. • Walk safely: When crossing a road always use a pedes trian crossing if there is one nearby. Help others to see you by wearing fluorescent or reflective clothing in poor light condi tions. • Anticipate: Observe and anticipate other road users’ actions and use your mirrors regularly. • Use car seats: Child and baby seats should be fitted pro perly and checked every trip. • Keep your distance: Always keep a twosecond gap between you and the car in front.

VACANCIES: DESIGNATED AGENTS
Every weekday morning many of the residents of Camphill Farm Community participate in a craft workshop. These individuals all have one thing in common: They are adults with intellectual disabilities who have found a safe and supported long term home where all their needs met and access to work opportunities. Hannah Tersteegen, Eva Modden and Pauline Bonisch are volunteers from Germany who, together with Nonkanyiso Setoli from Zwelihle, provide skilled coordination for the craft group. With up to 26 residents at any given time, it is a formidable task for the four women to assist each individual while producing quality products and keeping the group connected in its vision. In the craft enterprise, residents
have the chance to make a valuable contribution to their community as their craft items are sold to generate an income. Claudia Peyerl-Jansen says: “I like the craft workshop because I can learn a lot from the young volunteers. I have learned how to knit a pointed hat and I also learned how to make baby booties. ” Apart from knitting, weaving and crocheting, the residents also enjoy drawing and writing. The three German volunteers will head back to Germany at the end of July and Camphill is looking for a calm, competent mature adult with entrepreneurial skills to coordinate this group workshop. For more information call Christine Scott, Camphill Farm Community’s HR manager, on 0 021 200 2239.

DOGS: Texas scramble On 1 July the DOGS played a Texas Scramble at the Hermanus Golf Club. It was a scramble but The Countback King led his team of Rigger Ridge and The Legal Eagle through the gales to another victory. It was a very small field, more of a village green, but for Countback a win’s a win. There were some unusual added benefits on offer during the round, notably free hair restyling (for those that have any) and complimentary facial scrubs as the wind whipped the sand from the Hermanus bunkers onto Grotto beach. Dougal MacRoss combined both with a scalp scrub. 68: Jon Forsyth, Richard Ridge, Peter Theron; 70: Gordon Wilson, Michel Maury, Dave Rade; 71: Trevor Vaughan, Doug Ross, Dave Smith; 74: Peter Sulley, Alan Smith, Fred Garrett.
