POLISIE SLAAN TOE BY GARAGE ‘Dit was soos ’n aksiefliek’

“Dit was soos ’n toneel uit ’n aksie-fliek. Die adrenalien het so deur my are gepomp dat ek ook amper wou platval vir ingeval die skote begin klap!” So het Sandra Swanepoel, inwoner van Hermanus, die toneel beskryf ná verskeie lede van die Hermanus-polisie in ses voertuie by die Total
-vulstasie by die Gateway Sentrum op ’n verdagte voertuig, met vier insittendes, Vrydag omstreeks middagete toegeslaan het. Volgens luitenant Fadila September, polisiewoordvoerder by die Hermanus-polisie, was ses voertuie op pad terug na die polisiestasie ná hulle ’n operasie elders uitgevoer het, toe ’n oproep na een van die beamptes deurkom oor verdagtes in ’n Honda Ballade by die vulstasie. Die verdagtes is glo by verskeie bankinstansies
oor die afgelope paar weke opgemerk en die polisie het vermoed dat die vier mans by die onlangse OTM-bedrog, waar verskeie Hermanus-inwoners van duisende rande beroof is, betrokke kon wees. Volgens Manus Neethling, ’n ander ooggetuie wat besig was om brandstof in sy voertuig te gooi, het hy die Honda Ballade by die petrolpomp sien staan. Vervolg op bl. 2.

‘...sirenes en skreeuende bande’
JANINE VAN DER RIET Vervolg van bladsy 1: “Die volgende oomblik was dit net sirenes, skreeuende bande en polisievoertuie en man-
ne waar jy kyk. “Die vier verdagtes is aangesê om met hul hande op die kop, net soos in die flieks, uit die kar te klim en met hulle gesigte na onder op die grond te lê terwyl polisielede die kar deursoek,” het Neethling gesê. September sê die betrokke polisielede het dwelms in die kar gekry, asook R22 000 kontant. Die verdagte het aan die polisie verduidelik dat hy die geld vroeër die dag uit ’n bank onttrek het. Die polisie het die inligting ondersoek en die man het inderdaad die geld by ’n teller onttrek. Hy het verduidelik dat sy pa vir hom die geld oorgeplaas het. Die man is nie in hegtenis geneem nie. ’n Ander ooggetuie vertel dat die bestuur-
der van die kar die petroljoggie gevra het om slegs R30 se brandstof in te gooi. “Dit terwyl hulle met ’n pak note oop en bloot in die kar gesit het.” Een verdagte is in hegtenis geneem vir die besit van dwelms en ’n saak teen hom word tans ondersoek. Marlize Acker van die sentrumbestuur by die Gateway Sentrum sê die “storie” het baie vinnig gebeur. Sy het agterna die besonderhede en ook registrasienommer van die voertuig by die motorhawe aangevra om dit aan hul sekuriteitsbeamptes te stuur.

NOG ’N ONRUSTEKEN LOOP DEUR: Die woord “me” is ook onlangs op hierdie stopteken by die Hoofweg- en Radynstraat-oorgang in Onrus uitgekrap. Volgens Don Kearney, areabestuurder by Overstrand-munisipaliteit, veroorsaak vandalisme onnodige uitgawes en ontwrigting. “Die voorvalle is aan die Onrus buurtwag gerapporteer en ek het voorgestel dat ons dit tydens die volgende openbare wykskomiteevergadering aanspreek. ‘n Klagte van kwaadwillige saakbeskadiging sal gemaak word en deur die polisie ondersoek word. Indien ’n persoon in hegtenis geneem word, sal hulle voor die landdroshof verskyn en ’n boete of gevangenisstraf kan deel wees van die vonnis.”

Murder in Stanford Stanford Police received a report of a stabbing at a residence in Kannemeyer street, Stanford on 24 August at about 01:30. On their arrival, they found blood dripping from the neck of the victim, Henry Stompies. Stompies was transported to Hermanus Provincial Hospital where he tragically passed away at around 06:40. According to Sergeant RJ Gouws of the Stanford Police, it is not yet known exactly where the stabbing took place as the victim ran home after he was stabbed. “One suspect was arrested, but has been released due to a lack of evidence at this stage. “The clothes of the victim and the suspect as well as other items have been sent for forensic analysis at the SAPS laboratory. “This means that the suspect can still be charged with the murder should any further usable evidence come to light.” Any witnesses that could assist with this investigation are urged to contact Detective Warrant Officer David Payne on 028 341 0601.
Water and electricity losses written off During the mayoral committee meeting held on Wednesday 27 August at the Overstrand Municipality Auditorium, council decided that the non-technical electricity losses to the value of R1 124 096,31 for the 2013/2014 financial year be written off, and that the nontechnical water losses to the value of R5 726 219,95 for the 2013/2014 financial year be written off. Tanker service restrictions revoked Following the outcome of certain preliminary investigations, there will no longer be a restriction on the number of free of charge tanker call-outs to single residential properties. At the council meeting of 27 August it was decided that tariff SE7A1 and tariff SE7A5 be amended accordingly and to revert back to the previous policy of unrestricted extractions. This will be back dated to the beginning of July. Mike Bartman, deputy-director: Community Service, said council now anticipates following a targeted approach to cater for the 10% of users who request an excessive number of vacuum tanker services in the course of a month. This would involve comparing water consumption with the quantity of sewerage removed as well as conducting visual inspections of properties to identify illegal storm-water connections and defects to sewer installations. Where transgressions of the relevant bylaws are detected, these will be acted upon. For further information and/or advice in this regard, contact enquiries@overstrand.gov.za.
Arrest in Hawston A warrant was executed to search a house in Cambridge Street in Hawston on 12 August after the Hermanus Police followed up on information. On arrival a 42-year-old father and his 19year-old daughter were in the house. The members searched the house and in the bedroom they found a bag containing 1,7 kg dagga. The woman was arrested for possession of dagga and the father for possession of suspected stolen property. The police are investigating the case and the suspects will appear in the Hermanus Magistrate’s Court.

Bartho groet Hermanuspietersfontein Na bykans tien jaar as medestigter, wynmaker en direkteur by een van die land se vooraanstaande kelders, groet Bartho Eksteen vir Hermanuspietersfontein. Die rede vir sy uittrede as wynmaker is eenvoudig, verduidelik Bartho Dinsdagoggend douvoordag, aan die Hermanus Times tydens ’n onderhoud met hom. “Te vroeg om ’n glasie te klink,” skerts Bartho. Met sy hond Coza (afkomstig van dot co.za) aan sy sy, vertel hy dat sy liefde vir kinders, en sy passie vir wynmaak en die wynprofessie nou prioriteit is. “Ek is trots op wat ons as kelder, en in my persoonlike hoedanigheid, bereik het en sal dit koester as fantastiese jare in my loopbaan, maar die tyd is nou reg om voltyds op die wynskool te fokus en dit uit te brei.” Hy praat van die Bartho Eksteen Diners Club Wyn-akademie wat as buitemuurse aktiwiteit sedert 2010 by die Hoër Landbouskool Boland in die Paarl bedryf word. Op sy eie manier en styl volg Bartho in Hermanus Pieters se spore van die vroeë 1800’s om, deur onderrig, terug te gee aan die bedryf waarvoor hy ’n diep passie ontwikkel het. Deur die akademie stel hy skoolkinders bloot aan ’n moontlike loopbaankeuse in wynbou. Die kinders kan kies tussen kursusse in vonkelwyn Franse styl, rooiwyn of witwyn. Bartho is baie opgewonde dat die nuwe wending in sy lewe ook sy hele familie betrek. Sy vrou Suné gee reeds lesings aan die skoolkinders, terwyl Bartho die praktiese lesse gee. Hul seun Pieter Willem sal volgende jaar, as alles goed verloop, kwalifiseer as wynma-
heid wil betrek. Bartho sê een van die studente wat by die Akademie klasgeloop het, het hom hoeka verlede week gebel en ingelig dat hy as wynmaker-student vir volgende jaar by Elsenburg aanvaar is. “Dit is hoekom ek hierdie akademie begin het. Sodat kinders se passie vir wynmaak en die industrie kan groei en ontwikkel en sodoende hul loopbaankeuses vir hulle makliker maak.” Johan Pretorius, eienaar van Hermanuspietersfontein, sê hy haal sy hoed af vir Bartho en sy familie se toewyding vir die bevordering van wynmaak as kuns en professie sowel as die uitbou van wynkennis onder ons jeug. “Ons wens Bartho en die Akademie al die sukses en vooruitgang wat ’n goeie idee verdien.” Bartho beplan om die akademie te groei en die hoofkwartier in die toekoms in Hermanus te vestig, “sodat nie net die skoolkinders van Hoër Landbouskool Boland voordeel trek uit die kursus nie, maar alle Bartho Eksteen, wynmaker van Hermanuspietersfontein kinders met ’n passie vir wyn, verlaat dié kelder as wynmaker einde Oktober om hom wat wag om ontdek te word”. toe te spits op die Bartho Eksteen Diners Club Wyn-akaBartho se laaste dag as wyndemie.

Being the 10th L2L lwalk, a few of the ladies who participated in the first walk will take part again in celebration of its anniversary. Among them are Riana Bishop, Anarie Nel, Rene Grater, Susan Skog, Antionette van Vuuren and Rozelle Pretorius. PHOTO: CILENE BEKKER
Two charities chosen by L2L CILENE BEKKER The Lighthouse to Lighthouse (L2L) walk ladies nominated two charities to be the beneficiaries of funds raised during the next walk in March 2015. At the meeting held in the United Church on 27 August, representatives of the five charities had a few minutes to motivate why they need the funds and what they will use it for. The five charities were the Overberg Wheelchair Association (OWA), Yomelelani pre-school in Zwelihle, Overberg Training Institute, Hermanus Night Shelter Association and the Hermanus Senior Centre. Afterwards the L2L ladies present cast their vote and the majority of votes went to the Hermanus Night Shelter Association and the Over-
berg Wheelchair Association. Les Abbot, on behalf of the Hermanus Night Shelter Association says their nomination as a beneficiary for 2015 is a huge privilege. “The municipality has agreed to lease the land off Swartdam Road to the Association but we will have to wait until the area has been serviced before we can take occupation. The funds will go towards the financing of the building, the furniture and equipment that we will need in the new shelter.” Alda du Plooy, OWA project manager, says they are absolutely delighted at being nominated as a beneficiary too. “The faces of our five clients who took part in the presentation to the L2L ladies simply lit up with pure joy. We all feel truly blessed and thankful.” The delegation from Overberg Wheelchair Association had made a
plea for a special bus to transport them to work and back and to sporting events. The 2015 ladies hope to trump the R280 000 raised this year, and are aiming for R300 000. During their presentations, Yomelelani pre-school and after care centre, situated at Hou Moed, asked for funds to build three extra class rooms and create a play area. The Overberg Training Institute OTI said they need help with funding their programmes, for example their Jump Start programme, which is the only ABET classes that people can attend in day time. The Hermanus Senior Centre – a programme of Badisa that assists the elderly, disabled and disadvantaged said they have 45 carers who now, according to the labour law, would need special training costing R10 000 per carer for which they would need funding.
SPECIAL MOTH MEETING: The Memorable Order of Tin Hats (Moths) held a very special meeting at the home of Moth Bill van Niekerk at Fynbos Park on 26 August. Van Niekerk is the last remaining member of the Seagull Shellhole of Hermanus who fought during World War II. He was part of the great battle at El Alamein where 8 000 guns opened fire on the German lines. They had a proper meeting at his bedside, with the steel helmet and candle of remembrance to fulfill the order’s charter of true comradeship and mutual help, as Van Niekerk is too frail to attend meetings. The order is a very worthwhile organisation for all former servicemen as soldiers never forget those who have passed on.
The Moths hosted a special meeting to include Bill van Niekerk, the last remaining member of the Seagull Shellhole of Hermanus. Van Niekerk dressed in full colours, displaying all his medals, for this special occasion.

A mother's worth A mother's worth is not measured by the way she wore her hair. A mother's worth is not measured by the clothes she wears. A mother's worth is not measure by the make she puts on or the scent of perfume she carries on her. A mother's worth is not defined by the jewellery or the coats of fur. A mother's worth is not the superficial, physical and perceptive things that one perceives her to be. But a mother's worth is defined by the blood, sweat and tears that she puts into making food for her young. A mother's worth is casted out forward through her protectiveness, her warmth. A mother's worth is defined by the love and sincerity, the strictness and brutal force. Yet a mother's worth is defined by an unconditional belittling, yet overpowering mental and physical aspect, that triumphs even the Gods of the olden ages. A mother's worth is not found in the yellow pages. A mother's worth is thus found on her face, when she looks at her young, all grown up, successful, and she smiles, laughs, cries, even gets angry, because she is crying...not because of sadness, but because of joy. A mother's worth is her life she puts on the line for not only her own, but for those around her, even strangers. A mother's worth is something that can never be taken away from her. A mother's worth is the goodbye kiss to work and the hello, welcome back home safely kiss at night. We all have a mother, some not present, some are. Some near, and some far. But a mother never forgets her children, no matter the struggle, no matter the how high others have raised the bar. We miss our mother, we shall never forget her. R.I.P Ouma, Pop, Mammie, Karoolsie.

Delegates at the opening of the new Preekstoel bio-filtration waterplant were amongst others alderman Pieter Scholtz, Brendon Theunissen, Jeff du Toit, executive mayor Nicolette Botha-Guthrie, Stephen Muller, Simphiwe Mashicila and Hanre Blignaut.
Pioneering biofiltration plant opens in Kleinmond With the commissioning of the new Preekstoel bio-filtration plant on 19 August, the Greater Hermanus bulk water supply system became ully operational. Work on this project was started in 2010, with new plant and infrastructure being commissioned in stages from early 2013 onwards. Referred to by Mayor Nicolette Botha-Guthrie as Overstrand’s “flagship capital works project”, the Preekstoel bio-filtration plant is the first full-scale plant of its kind in South Africa and has been specifically designed to remove the high iron and manganese content from ground water by means of a natural process. Generally acknowledged as being much more environmentally friendly, this type of water-treatment technology requires fewer chemicals, saves electricity and reduces water loss in the treatment process, and has earned the Overstrand an award for innovation as one of the Western Cape’s greenest municipalities in 2013. At a total cost of R87 million, of which R20,6 million was contributed by the Department of Water and Sanitation via its Regional Bulk Infrastructure Grant (RBIG) programme, the project involved pioneering work by the Overstrand Municipality project team, consulting
engineers Aurecon, ground-water specialists Umvoto Africa, environmental specialists SRK, refurbishment contractor Inenzo Water, civil contractor Inyanga Projects and mechanical-electrical contractor Paterson Candy International. In addition to the main contractors, 16 local sub-contractors also had a hand in executing the project, while 67 temporary jobs were created for local people during the construction phase. The Greater Hermanus bulk water supply system was commissioned to reduce dependence on surface water sources and to counter the possible effects of climate change. Through the refurbishment of existing civil infrastructure and mechanical and electrical equipment and by adding new infrastructure, capacity was increased from 24 to 38 megalitres/day. In his address, a representative from the Western Cape Department of Water and Sanitation, Simpiwe Mashicila, congratulated Overstrand Municipality on being one of the top-performing municipalities in terms of both the Blue and Green Drop Programmes at provincial and national level, achieving 96,82% (Blue Drop 2012) and 88,8% (Green Drop 2011) overall.

Whale Coast to become a Hope Spot JANHENDRIK COETZER The Cape Whale Coast, which stretches from Rooi Els to Quoin Point, will be officially launched as one of six Mission Blue Hope Spots in December this year. Dr Sylvia Earle, the architect of the Hope Spot initiative, will be coming to South Africa later in the year to help promote this project by speaking at public events and making underwater recordings that will be broadcasted on various TV-channels and radio stations. Earle is a well-known National Geographic explorer, TED Award winner, recipient of 24 honorary degrees, marine conservationist, author and arguably the world’s most famous diver. She will arrive in South Africa on 3 December and during this month all the Hope Spots will be launched. The Cape Whale Coast will be launched on 6 December. The other Hope Spots in South Africa include Aliwal Shoal in KwaZulu-Natal, Algoa Bay, Plettenberg Bay, Knysna and False Bay. A meeting was held on Monday at the Library Hall in Hawston, which was attended by the Overstrand Municipality, CapeNature, South African Shark Conservancy, Dyer Island Conservation Trust, Whale Coast Conservation and various other local community-based groups. According to Tony Ribbink from the Sus-
Dr Sylvia Earle during on one of her many ocean explorations. tainable Seas Trust, which oversees this initiative, these Hope Spots will help to improve our coasts and will assist others to achieve sustainability, including the fishermen. “There’s only 3,5% of our crayfish left and between 1 to 7% of tuna species. By creating awareness and working together with all the relevant parties, we can change things around before these percentages hit zero. Hope Spots will benefit all aspects of econom-
ic growth and business development, especially tourism. It will also provide opportunities to resolve issues between fishermen and authorities.” Ribbink used an example of when they gave children cameras to take pictures of sea creatures to create awareness. “When they were done taking pictures, they were so worried as to where to put their feet while walking back because, for the first time, they were concerned about these creatures,” said Ribbink. Background to Hope Spots: Hope Spots are special conservation areas that are critical to the health of the ocean. Some of these Hope Spots are already formally protected, while others still need protection. About 12% of the land around the world is now under some form of protection, while less than 3% of the ocean is protected in any way. Networks of Hope Spots maintain biodiversity, provide a carbon sink, generate life-giving oxygen, preserve critical habitat and allow low-impact activities like eco-tourism to thrive. By engaging governments, businesses, schools, research organisations, universities, civil society and the media, Mission Blue hopes to effect significant changes so that future generations can thrive on a healthy planet, with a healthy ocean.
Reptile advice: Slithering snakes are frightened too With the cold, wet winter coming to an end spring marks the dawning of a new circle of life. The Hermanus Times spoke to Shaun MacLeod, director of Reptile Education Awareness Consultants (REAC), about reptiles such as snakes, that will soon be coming out of hibernation. MacLeod says snakes are an important natural balancer in our environment as they control the vermin rodents and other disease-carrying pests we find around the house. Most people are bitten when trying to kill or handle a snake. “As a general rule, snakes are just as frightened of you as possibly you are of them. Often they move as quickly as possible in the other direction. Snakes cause no property damage, but seeing a snake may frighten some people.” “Snakes will only defend themselves if threatened and will not attack anyone who leaves them alone. “Do not attempt to capture or disturb it. Leave it alone, but keep an eye on where the snake is. “There is no real way of keeping snakes off your property, but if you keep your grass short, trees well trimmed and clean up all your building rubble, just to mention a few, then there is a lesser likelihood of

snakes residing on your property.” In short, keep your garden tidy, explains MacLeod. The biggest snake he has ever caught was a 2,5 m yellow Anaconda that was in a real bad mood. “It had escaped from the owner’s Wendy house three doors away and was doing some neighbourhood watching or just shopping for a quick meal,” MacLeod jokes. When asked about the most dangerous snake he has ever caught, MacLeod said the most dangerous snake depends on the understanding of the word. “Dangerous can be the most venomous or the fastest striking, or the animal that is so camouflaged it is nearly invisible. The most dangerous in my opinion is the snake handlers have become too comfortable with.” Shaun was bitten by a Cape Cobra a few years ago, he says because he became too complacent and took minimum safety precautions.
Shaun MacLeod with one of the snakes he caught previously.
He says this bite was self-inflicted, because he was at fault. He says the most difficult spot to catch a snake is one who seeks refuge behind the dashboard of a car. “At night this is potentially the most dangerous situation I get confronted with. Rescuing these shy, elusive creatures is very interesting . My reward is the peace of mind that all God’s creatures are deserving of life and a second chance.” Save this number: If you come across a snake, contact Shaun on 082 532 5033 to remove it.

Voëlklip mother talks about horror evening JANINE VAN DER RIET “I never, ever want to see him again! I am not dead. I could have been. It was close. But I am a survivor and I will not let him win!” So said the brave Anthea van der Pluym who was attacked and set alight by her 19-year-old son on 15 July this year. (HT 17 July) Anthea’s mother, Dot Potgieter, was also attacked at the time, but she managed to escape and call for help at neighbours. The son was arrested on the same evening and is still in jail, facing two counts of attempted murder and a drug-related charge. Anthea opened up for the first time to the media in a heart-wrenching yet inspirational interview with the Hermanus Times on Monday afternoon at her home in Voëlklip. After spending 26 days in an ICU
in the burn unit at Tygerberg Hospital in excruciating pain, and two skin-graft operations, she was released from hospital and has been recovering at home for the past two-and-a-half weeks. Her mother was released from hospital a day after the attack after being treated for head wounds inflicted by a hammer. Now, after many painful days and nights, Anthea is trying to pick up the pieces, both physically and mentally. “The tragedy of it all is not only the wounds that must heal, with a lot of effort from my side, but also, having to deal with the ‘loss’ of my son. But, the magic and miracle in this entire tragedy is, that the horror of someone trying to murder you, with seconds to try and save yourself, it does not compare to the warmth
and support of the hundreds of people that showed us love and support during this time. “Their kind gestures, delivering food, flowers, visits, weighs in much more substantially than the trauma we went through. Their support is helping to turn something horrific into something beautiful, and allow me not to lose faith in humanity, after facing such an inhumane act.” While Anthea finds it painful to move and even struggles to talk during the interview, because of the skin grafts over her face, behind her ears, on her neck, arms and back, she still has a glow in her eyes that says: “I am not giving up!” Before the incident, Anthea was an author of several books and dedicated her time and energy to help victims of trauma and violence in South Africa and abroad. She offered courses and retreats and is a well-known inspirational speaker, teacher and facilitator. Anthea faced a great deal of violence in her life, from the murder of her father, assault on her mother, the rape of her in-laws, to an attack on her in a mass riot. After all of this, she decided to face life proactively and make a positive impact on people and help others.
Anthea and Dot are not keen to talk about her son, but say after he came back from England, he stayed with them for the past year, when they tried to help him with his drug addiction, until he attacked them in a way which is unthinkable. Anthea has decided, despite the many hours it takes her to care for her wounds daily in order for them to heal properly, to take on different kinds of art forms on the road to recovery. She has started drawing, has taken up pottery classes and playing music. “It is an expression to help me get my body and mind going.” To fully recover, the doctors says could take anything from six months to two years, but she is determined to heal in a shorter time. Her first step to recovery is to take part in a Cashkows fun walk of six kilometres in October. From there she wants to do the Whale Trail with 12 of her friends in January, a route of 50 kilometres and then, her ultimate goal is to once again take part in the Lighthouse to Lighthouse Challenge in March next year! But she knows, she must take it one step at a time. “The healing, inside and out, is going to take some time, but I am
ready.” Anthea and her mother are also seeing a clinical psychologist who is helping them to work through the trauma, which they say, is very helpful. “I did not die! If I were meant to die, I most certainly would have, especially in the first few days after the attack. But I didn’t. My goal now is to reduce the scars, so that one day, I won’t be able to see them at all any more.” Her family and loved ones are still caring for her on a daily basis. Her employer, CashKows, have also been beyond the point of amazing, according to Anthea. “They are taking such good care of me, financially and emotionally, I cannot express how much they mean to me. Everyone, all my friends and loved ones, thank you! Without you I would not have been able to get through this.” ) Nicholas Victor Van der Pluym spent his 20th birthday in jail on Saturday. He was arrested on the night of the attack and appeared in the Hermanus Magistrate’s Court for the first time on 18 July. The case was remanded until 28 July for a bail application, which was opposed.

met AfriForum die verrigtinge bygewoon om laerskoolleerders meer oor die belangrikheid van bome te vertel soos dat een gemiddelde grootte boom ’n gesin van vier vir sowat ’n jaar lank van suurstof voorsien. Sy het ook gepraat oor die eienskappe van ’n waterbessieboom. “Die bessies word gebruik vir die behandeling van TB, borskwale en word ook in maagmedisyne gebruik. Die boom raak sowat 12 meter hoog en die bessies kan mens selfs eet ook.” Raadslid Kari Brice het ook die skool en AfriForum bedank vir hul bydrae om omgewingsbewustheid by leerders te skep. “Laerskool Hermanus besef die belangrikheid van die omgewing en die rol wat dit vir volgende geslagte speel. Elke jaar gryp hulle hierdie geleentheid met ope arms aan.”

‘Neil Diamond’ (oftewel Marius du Bruyn) op die verhoog in aksie.
Neil Diamondaand ’n reusesukses JANHENDRIK COETZER Diegene wat dalk ’n paar jaar gelede Neil Diamond se show misgeloop het en Vrydagaand na Marius du Bruyn gaan luister het by Laerskool Hermanus, het dalk gevoel hulle het ’n tweede geleentheid gekry om die groot sanger te sien, al was dit dié keer nie in lewende lywe nie. Du Bruyn het met bekende liedjies soos Sweet Caroline, Solitary Man, I’m a Believer en vele meer die skoolsaal gevul met gaste wat net nie kon wag om die dansvloer te betree nie. Elke kwartaal probeer die skool minstens een groot fondsinsamelingsprojek identifiseer. Die skool beplan tans om ’n nuwe Kuns en Kultuursentrum aan te bou vir sowat R1,5m en alhoewel die Staat R700 000 bydra, sal die skool self R800 000 moet opdok. Die funksie, wat ’n pretveiling ingesluit het, is gereël deur die Ouer-Onderwysersvereniging (OOV) en het meer as R40 000 ingesamel, waarvan sowat R20 000 deur die pretveiling ingebring is. Die Nasionale Seereddingsinstituut (NSRI) het ook baat gevind by die funksie. Gaste is genooi om ’n ietsie in die NSRI houertjies op die tafels te gooi en so is daar R1 300 ingesamel. Ook was daar iets in die sak vir die gaste self. Volgens Leatitia van Niekerk van die OOV, was daar 245 gelukstrekkingpryse ter waarde van R48 200 wat beteken het dat bykans elke persoon wat daar was, ’n prys van minstens R50 ontvang het. Namens die OOV bedank Van Niekerk graag al die besighede vir hul ondersteuning in die vorm van pryse en vir hul bereidwilligheid om betrokke te raak, asook die gemeenskap wat hulle ondersteun het.

EDITORIAL COMMENT Maak los daai litte Met sowat 2 miljoen mense wat jaarliks landwyd aan Loslitdag deelneem, het jy absoluut geen verskoning om môre (Vry dag 5 September) vaal en verveeld jou huis te verlaat nie. Gaan bos, gaan mal, maar bowenal, gaan bling! Ja, jy’t reg gehoor, vanjaar se tema is Bling. Dis die een dag van die jaar wat jy ietwat weird by die werk kan opdaag sonder dat jou baas ’n wenkbrou gaan lig. So, gaan koop jou Loslitplakker by meeste winkels en ondersteun hierdie goeie inisiatief. Fondse gaan aan persone met fisiese gestremdhede, en skole, muni sipaliteite, hospitale en besighede gaan el ke jaar groter en beter om hierdie dag te ondersteun. Laasjaar het die dag sowat R24,8m vir hierdie doel ingesamel. Dis ook sommer die perfekte geleentheid vir kameraad skap by die kantoor. To every Overstrander: join in on Fri day’s Casual Day theme dress up, clad yourself in as much Bling as you can cope with and lets turn town into a colourful car nival city for the day. Ná berigte oor die feit dat Overstranders voortaan vir brandweerdienste moet betaal, het Die Burger (soos Hermanus Times, deel van Media24) dié spotprent van Fred Mouton gepubliseer in hul uitgawe van 26 Augustus.

Please, don’t cut the daisies
Are local building suppliers ripping us off? A builder priced a door here at a local business last week and found that he could get the identical door at the same company in Somerset West for R100 less per door. He wanted 10 doors, so guess where he went? Another local business sells a roll of dampproof plastic for R1 500. A builder (with interests in Johannesburg) on another local building sites gets the same roll for R500 in Johannesburg. He wanted five rolls, so guess what he did? I had a tender for doors and windows on a project here in Hermanus. Cape Town price (which was way less than the Hermanus price) was R1,15 m. The Johannesburg price using the same supply companies was R800 000 including delivery all 100 doors and windows to Hermanus. When I approached the Cape Town companies on the issue, they dropped their price by R350 000 to get the job. I won’t even start on the prices of timber boards and planks. I could make a list as long as my arm on the price differences between Cape Town and Johannesburg and then also between Cape Town and Hermanus. With the majority of building items, it pays to hire a big trailer and fetch whatever building materials you need over the mountain or even from Johannesburg and save yourself a pile of money. Another builder can get 30 tons of silica sand delivered to here from Pretoria for the same price as 10 tons in Cape Town (excl delivery). Something is going on that is seriously out of wack. Would you say that local building suppliers are perhaps ripping us off?
JUST ASKING HERMANUS
Early in August the verges along Marine Drive in Sandbaai were a pleasure to behold, fields of cheerful daisies, bringing much pleasure to all who passed along. By afternoon they had all disappeared. Mown down by persons employed to I assume, ‘clear the verges’. Obviously not supervised as surely whoever was authorised to do this would know a flower from a weed or whatever they were supposed to clear and presumably paid for this destruction by the council. Don Kearney, Senior Manager: Hermanus Administration, answers: This is a contentious issue every year this time. We are all aware that the flowering
plants are attractive and a pleasure to behold. The unfortunate reality is that the other vegetation grows alongside the daisies. By the time the daisies start to wilt, the grass and other vegetation have grown to unacceptable lengths. Furthermore, the reality then is that the Parks Teams are behind with their cutting programme and find it difficult to play catch up. Then the municipality is severely criticised for the uncut parks and road verges. The daisies recover very quickly and are visible again soon after they have been trimmed. The Municipality will therefore, unfortunately, not deviate from its maintenance programme.
Daar ís oplossings vir die oorlaaistasie in Onrus Voor daar na moontlike oplossings verwys word, rakende die hoogs onbevredigende situasie by die Onrus oorlaaistasie (Hermanus Times, 28 Augustus 2014), vind ek dit nodig om eers die volgende drie punte uit te lig: - Ons het hier te doen met twee uiteenlopende probleme: eerstens die bestaande behoefte om naweek-inwoners se vullis effektief te verwyder, en tweedens die haweloses wat in toenemende mate by die oorlaaistasie rondhang. Ek is van mening dat die situasie alleen effektief opgelos sal word as die twee realiteite losstaande van mekaar aangespreek word. - Die eerste hoofstuk van ’n nuttige handleiding, wat deur die munisipaliteit uitgegee is, handel oor onwettige openbare gedrag, waarvan die eerste ses oortredings wat uitgespel word, naamlik drankmisbruik, vloek, dwelmmisbruik, bakleiery, ontlasting en spoeg, almal reeds vir ’n geruime tyd en op ’n gereelde basis by die Onrus-oorlaaistasie plaasvind. - Niemand wil ’n asblik permanent by sy voordeur hê nie, maar dit is wat ons as inwoners by een van die twee ingange na Onrus het. Ek verstaan van Theo Agenbach, bestuursvoorsitter van die Onrus Handelspos, dat hulle opposisie teen die huidige plasing van die stortingsfasiliteit destyds geïgnoreer is. Ek het die volgende voorstel reeds maande
gelede aan die betrokke instansies voorgelê: Maak dit verpligtend vir alle eiendomme om een van die standaard staalhouers vir vullissakke, wat reeds voor baie eiendomme is, op die sypaadjie van elke huis aan te bring. As eienaars nie op die munisipale versoek reageer nie, word so ’n houer deur die munisipaliteit voor dié huise aangebring, en die eienaars op hulle maandelikse rekening daarvoor gedebiteer. Op dié manier raak die problematiese stortingsfasiliteit oorbodig en kan verwyder word. As die munisipaliteit nie bereid is om die fasiliteit te verskuif nie, wil ek voorstel dat ernstig na die volgende voorstel, deur ’n lid van die Wykskomitee (aangehaal uit korrespondensie met ons Stadsraadslid) gekyk word: “Sit ’n dak op met gly-gleuwe waarin die swartsakke gegooi word, en dan in die tonnel val tot in die ‘hok’. Maak dit dan toe met ’n hek. Een van die komiteelede (Duncan Heard) het reeds dié voorstel, volgens skaal, aan ons voorgelê.” Ek wil graag vir Elzette Nell bedank vir haar gedetermineerde en volgehoue pogings om hierdie jarelange probleem, wat sy met haar verkiesing as Stadsraadslid geërf het, finaal op te los.
THEO DE WET
Kosrevolusie vereis ’n paradigma sprong Vir baie jare is ons oortuig deur dokters, dieetkundiges, die hartstigting en ander gesondheidsgoeroes, om geen vet, lae vet, min vleis, geen vleis, margarien in plaas van botter, ens, te eet. Nou moet ons nóg ’n verandering in ons reeds gekompliseerde lewens integreer. Wat dit egter makliker maak, is die wete dat Tim Noakes nie sommer ’n haas uit die hoed pluk nie. Hy vertel ons wat reeds internasionaal in mediese kringe bevestig is. Ons móét nou heeltemal anders dink oor eet: volroom, vleis met vet aan, geen koolhidrate (komplot teen brood?) en geen suiker nie (ai, die ou sjokoladetjie!). Jy moet ook net eet as jy honger is - nie ses keer ’n dag nie. Dokters wat die nuwe manier van eet aanbeveel, getuig dat hulle nou minder hart- en diabetes-probleme in hul praktyke sien, om nie eers te praat van die ongelooflike gewigsverlies nie. Vir baie van ons met gevestigde gewoontes, sal dit egter ’n groot uitdaging wees. Sterkte met die sprong.

Verkeersowerhede doen wél hul werk Ek dink die eienaar van die koerierdiens is suur oor iets (Brief, HT, 21 Augustus). Hoekom gaan sien jy nie die verkeershoof as daar ’n probleem is nie? Hermanus is ’n vakansiedorp en toeriste/besoekers van oraloor die land/wêreld besoek ons. Ek dink die verkeersdiens doen goeie werk. Ek het self ’n besigheid in Hermanus en het nog nooit ’n probleem gehad nie. As jy kyk na die volume motors/bestuurders wat Hermanus instroom is dit nie altyd maklik nie, maar ek is trots op ons verkeersmanne. Om so ’n ou grompot te wees sal niks laat gebeur nie. Hermanus is nie so groot dat jy nie die verkeershoof kan gaan sien nie.

Frustrations run high in Kleinmond The last week of August was not a good one for residents of Kleinmond. On one day alone we had a breakdown of radio reception for several hours, as well as another burst water pipe, which of course resulted in dry taps – and mouths! There was also an unscheduled power failure, which fortunately lasted only a few hours and obviously caused a great deal of inconvenience to all. But of particular annoyance and frustration to most residents who do not have DStv was the complete loss of television reception covering SABC 1, 2, 3 and e.tv. Repeated calls to Sentech since Wednesday 28 August have yet to produce reception on all above-mentioned channels. To date, SABC 1, 2 and e.tv had been restored by Friday, but as I write on Monday 1 September there is still no signal on SABC 3, and I have been informed by Sentech that they have had to order the required parts from Johannesburg branch to repair the damage to channel 3. Having said all this, and having endured a particularly frustrating week or so, it has become clear that Kleinmond, in particular, is under resourced and under-maintained. The latest restriction of allowing only two septic tanks pumping per month, and the heavy penalty for any subsequent monthly pump is especially hard for any large family and others whose usage necessitates a third, or even fourth, month-

ly vacuum tanker service. Here, in Kleinmond, I believe we are down to only two such serviceable tankers, hence the need to give the sewerage department ample prior noticed, otherwise your tank could overflow during the delay. The whole sewerage system is a mess! Kleinmond and surrounds need to have a total water-borne sewerage system: this will cost many millions of rands. Imagine the chaos in say, the next 10 years, when Kleinmond would have grown in size but still has this outdated system. I am reliably informed by a senior Overstrand official that no forward, strategic planning or budgeting exists to put water-borne sewerage in this area. This is a total disgrace and a damning indictment on the DA-led Overstrand Municipality. We, as ratepayers should take collective action to demand that in the very near future this problem is addressed, failing which by 2024, we will all be in the “cactus”! I understand that council is currently reviewing and revoking the restriction of limiting the tanker services to just two per month. We would all like to hear from the financial planning department just what they intend to do about our water and sewerage problems. We want facts and figures – not empty promises.

Alien vegetation to make way for indigenous biodiversity walk A new attraction for the Hermanus CBD: You may have seen teams of workers removing the numerous alien plants on the coastal area between Hermanuspietersfontein and Gearings Point this week. This is the first phase of an exciting new project to revitalise this
beautiful but badly degraded, polluted and alien plant infested stretch of the cliff path. Invasive aliens such as statice, kikuyu grass, nasturtiums, cannas, lavateria, palm trees and others, will be replaced by the municipal horticulturist with indigenous vegeta-

tion, thus restoring this conservation-worthy section of our coast to its original pristine condition. Thereafter, an informative and educational self-guided Biodiversity Walk, based on the world class Green Point Biodiversity Park in Cape Town, is to be created along the exist-
ing path system. We expect that some people may be offended by the removal of colourful but invasive aliens, but it shouldn’t be too long before this area is as beautiful as the natural vegetation along the rest of our Walker Bay Coastline. Importantly, the Biodi-
versity Walk project is being funded by part of the Greenest Town award won by Hermanus in 2013.

Spring is in the air, but a mild cold front will be heading towards the Overstrand this weekend and cooler weather can be expected. This will clear up again next week with a maximum of 21°C forecasted for Monday.
Koel naweek voorspel Die lenteweer wat vroegweek die skoenlappers so stiptelik op Lentedag uit kul kokonne gejaag het, sal die komende naweek ’n blaaskansie vat, maar nie só dat Hermanus se strate leeg sal wees nie. ’n Piepklein koue selletjie met meer pascaldruk as wat hy nodig het om koud genoem te word, hang noordwes van Gough rond en had tot gister ’n vraagteken oor hom. Twee baie groot hoogdrukselle weerskante van Kaap Agulhas keer dat dié koue mannetjie se isobare naby die vasteland kom. Dit lyk of die lenteweer gekom het om te bly. Daar was inderdaad sedert Maandag geen konveksie nie en net die beweging van koue bolug en die suidewindjie gisteraand (Woensdag) herinner ons vandag op 14 °C tot elfuur aan die winter. Voor sonsak vanaand geniet ons 22 °C. Dit is ook net reg vir hengelvis om vrolik te wei en vir die rotsmanne met hul sesmankanne koffie, wat op die rotse vir hulle wag. Die wind staan deur die nag uit die ooste, maar is te eina om die twee hoogdrukke onder die land te verdryf. Die een aan die Atlantiese kant van die land skep wel ’n bietjie vog uit die klein laagdrukselletjie, maar dit kan nie meer as anderhalf millimeter wees nie en die kanse dat die vog soos reën sal terugval grond toe, is nul. Die bietjie vogtigheid wat geskep word, skep wel
’n paar lastige wolke en trek die bietjie koue tot Saterdagoggend nader. Sakemanne wat vir die naweek regmaak, kan dit ignoreer – dit is nie genoeg om besoekers weg te hou nie. Hulle kan die hele Saterdag in rondom 17 °C al die pret van die Overstrand geniet. Sondag is dit egter soos die oumense sê verkoueweer, want die wind draai deur die nag en dit word koud. Die skielike koue is altyd ’n gevaarlike tydperk om verkoue te kry. Veral bejaardes moet maar warm bly tot die dag behoorlik warmer word. Dit sal eers teen Sondagnamiddag gebeur wanneer die temperatuur weer tot 17 °C styg. Vroegweek moet die hoogdrukke noodwendig padgee en die inkomende lug uit die noordweste kan vog indra, maar weereens nie meer as een of twee millimeter tot Woensdag toe nie. Op lang termyn lyk dit of die lente op koers sal bly. ’n Paar lesers vra of daar regtig iets is soos klimaatsverandering. Ansie Marais van Stanford wil weet waar ’n mens dit kan sien. Mense moet kom kyk, haar tuin was nog nooit só mooi nie.

Die leerders van Hoërskool Hermanus wat aan die Eskom Ekspo deelgeneem het is Frances van Wyk, Anrika Brand, Grant Metcalf, Dabin Kim en Donne van Schoor.
Hermies presteer by Ekspo Grant Metcalf, ’n graad 10-leerder van Hoërskool Hermanus, het ’n goue medalje verower vir sy navorsingsprojek oor ’n laekostesonkragaangedrewe verdampingsverkoeler tydens die Stellenbosch-streek se uitdunne vir die Eskom Ekspo vir Jong Wetenskaplikes wat op 22 Augustus in Stellenbosch plaasgevind het. Dié innoverende projek het Grant ook ’n plek besorg in die streekspan wat gedurende die Oktober-vakansie in Boksburg aan die nasionale Eskom Expo International Science Fair (ISF2014) gaan deelneem. Daar staan leerlinge die kans om die geleentheid te kry om selfs internasionaal te kan gaan deelneem. Donne van Schoor, ’n graad 8-leerder, het ’n silwermedalje én ’n spesiale toekenning ontvang vir haar projek oor die toetsing van sitrusvrugte se Vitamien C-inhoud. Bronsmedaljes het gegaan aan Anrika Brand (gr. 8) vir haar projek oor die gebruik van ’n omgewingsvriendelike insekdoder om miere mee dood te maak; Frances
van Wyk (gr. 8) se projek oor die uitbroei van krieke na ’n hittegolf; en Dabin Kim (gr. 8) se projek oor hout versus swart steenkool. Parthy Chetty, uitvoerende direkteur van die Eskom Ekspo, het gesê ’n belangstelling en voorliefde vir die wetenskap is nie net persoonlik vervullend nie, maar is vinnig besig om ’n voorvereiste te word om in die nuwe kennisekonomie te oorleef: “Die Eskom Ekspo verskaf ’n stewige grondslag waartydens leerders se passie vir die wetenskap verder ontwikkel word. Ons het jong wetenskaplikes nodig om ons land te help om tegnologies meer kompeterend te word,” het hy in die voorwoord tot die program gesê. Die Stellenbosch-streek se Eskom Ekspo word elke jaar georganiseer deur vrywilligers van die Universiteit Stellenbosch se Sentrum vir Pedagogie en die Fakulteit Natuurwetenskappe. Skole en leerders wat graag volgende jaar wil deelneem, kan vir Erika Hoffman kontak by 021 808 3482 of ehoff@sun.ac.za.
SPRING CELEBRATION AT MONTESSORI: The Hermanus Private Montessori School celebrated spring with an open day and the learners participated in a variety of spring activities. They could choose between flower arranging, miniature gardening or fresh fruit and vegetable creations. The day was also in celebration of Maria Montessori’s 144th birthday. Here are Bila Smuts and Nilla Grobbelaar with their miniature garden.
Even the little ones joined in the spring fun. Martienet Pitzer helped her daughter Ester with her pretty pink and white flower arrangement, while Jemma Nell (at the back) looks on.

Talk on photographer Thomas Ravenscroft The Hermanus History Society is presenting an illustrated talk, “Through the lens of Thomas Ravenscroftg (1852-1948) – glimpses of our history captured for posterity”, at the Municipal auditorium on Tuesday 9 September at 17:30. Social historian and member of the History Society, Felicity Jervis, will talk about the now almost lost world captured by one of South Africa’s most famous photographers, who lived through three royal reigns and three major wars. Using a collection of his historic photographs taken in the Western Cape and Hermanus between 1875 and 1940, she reveals Cape history as seen through his lens, how our world has changed, and how his long-forgotten photographs have helped her to make fascinating historical discoveries. Hermanus was Ravenscroft’s favourite place and he lived here in a cottage where the Post Office now stands, with a studio adjacent to the house. His grandson, Michael Ravenscroft recently recalled: “His photographic studio next door, on the harbour side of the house, was about five metres wide, a painted timber structure looking a little weathered, with a central entrance door facing the road. A sign next to the door making it clear that only
Thomas Ravenscroft women dressed in accordance with the displayed Bible text would be photographed, is well documented.” This presentation includes many more photographs of old Hermanus than did the presentation at the FynArts Festival. Felicity Jervis has worked as a research librarian, an investigative journalist and a private management consultant to blue-chip companies and institutions. On retirement she took up historical research, starting with the life of her grandfather, a Viennese composer, conductor and violinist. Contact Robin Lee on 028 312 4072 or robinlee@hermanus.co.za.
Kerkkorefees by NG Kerk Op 7 September om 17:00 word die Overbergse Kerkkorefees in die NG Kerk Hermanus aangebied. Dis ’n geleentheid wat al oor baie jare ’n tradisie geword het. Toe dit verlede jaar nêrens in die Overberg kon plaasvind nie, het die orrelis, dr Frikkie Strydom en sy vrou Jeannette, besluit om in te spring en te red wat te redde is, want hulle is ernstig begaan oor die behoud van die kerkkoor en kerkorrel. Die Overbergse NG gemeentes wat gaan deelneem aan die feestelikheid is Hermanus, Villiersdorp, Grabouw, Riviersonderend, die VGK-koor van Mount Pleasant en die junior koor van Laerskool Hermanus.
Die tema van die aand is Loof die Heer en daar sal volop geleentheid wees vir gemeentesang. Dwarsfluite en ’n trompet word aangewend en in sommige koorbegeleidings word die trompet ook ingespan. By die korefees op 7 September sal die kore eers individueel optree en die opwindende aand word dan afgesluit met sang deur ’n massakoor bestaande uit al die deelnemende kore. Alle liefhebbers van koorsang en kerkmusiek word hartlik uitgenooi na hierdie besielende geleentheid wat reeds om 18:15 afgehandel behoort te wees. Bywoning is gratis.

A simple historical narrative will provide the set ting and context for the presen tation, which focuses on the amazing and very moving works of art, literature and mu sic that emerged from the war.

International workshop on Fernkloof to celebrate fynbos The workshop on the theme of Fernkloof being hosted at the Whale Coast Hotel on Friday 26 September, is called “Fernkloof: Celebrating Fynbos” and is being marketed to all interested botanical and conservation organisations under this name. The workshop will, among other aspects, focus on the marketing challenges facing Fernkloof, says Duncan Heard, chairperson of the Fernkloof Advisory Board. “Fernkloof is an important attraction but it is not sufficiently or appropriately marketed. For example, there is an exciting role for the private sector in its development. The workshop will highlight this and other aspects. I am sure it will be welcomed, especially given its strong programme, by all people in Hermanus who appreciate what Fernkloof can offer us.” Presenters at the workshop: – Prof Brian Huntley (former CEO of South African National Biodiversity Institute) – Duncan Heard and David Davidson (of Chelsea Flower Show fame) – Ishmail Ebrahim (CREW CFR Programme Manager – SANBI (South African National Botanical Institute) – Dr Dianne Marais (Hermanus Botanical Society) – Michael Lutzeyer (Grootbos Private Nature Reserve) – Piet Louw (Sentinel Business Advisory)

NATURE MATTERS: DID YOU KNOW? Chacma baboons (Papio ursinus) are the largest members of the monkey family. They live in highly social groups of up to 200 individuals. Within a troop, adult males form a hierarchy of dominance maintained by fighting. Male ranking is unstable, because young males tend to emigrate between troops and will challenge for rank. In contrast, females remain in their natal groups and form strong hierarchies across generations. Chacma baboons are omnivorous and foraging is opportunistic. Although the species is not threatened, increasing overlap between their natural range and human settlements has resulted in human-wildlife conflict.

STATEMENT: VOLVO HAS SURPRISED ALL WITH THE NEW XC90
Volvo premieres its new XC90 QUICKPIC The all-new Volvo XC90 is firm evidence of the company’s ‘Volvo-by-Volvo strategy’. Its outstanding combination of luxury, space, versatility, efficiency and safety will bring the SUV segment into a new dimension, just as the original Volvo XC90 achieved in 2002. “Volvo-by-Volvo means that the Swedish company is fully independent – all R&D is done entirely for Volvo, by Volvo – with no external financial support. “SPA has enabled us to create the world’s first SUV without compromises,” says Dr Peter Mertens, senior vice-president, Research and Development of Volvo Car Group. “You get the in-command feel, generous interior space and flexible capability, combined with the agility and smooth comfort of a much smaller and lower car. The adrenaline rush that is key to true driving pleasure is delivered by powertrains that offer an unrivalled combination of power and clean operation. And since the all-new Volvo XC90 carries the Volvo badge, world-class safety is standard.” Unrivalled combination of power and fuel-efficiency The all-new Volvo XC90 offers a range of two-litre, four-cylinder Drive-E power trains, all of which provide an outstanding combination of performance and fuel-efficiency. The top of the range XC90 T8 Twin Engine, which combines a two-litre, four-cylinder supercharged and turbocharged petrol engine with an electric motor, offers an unrivalled combination of power and clean operation: around 295 kW with carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions of around
The all-new Volvo XC90’s interior is the most luxurious to date. The most striking feature is a tablet-like touch screen control console, which forms the heart of an all-new in-car control system. PHOTO: QUICKPIC 60 g/km (NEDC driving cycle). The all-new Volvo XC90’s interior is the most luxurious to date. The most striking feature is a tablet-like touch screen-control console, which forms the heart of an all-new in-car control system. This system is virtually button-free and represents an entirely new way for drivers to control their car and access a range of Internet-based products and services. It also helps create an interior that is modern, spacious and uncluttered. The new interior design is pure and uncluttered, while still radiating the sophisticated confidence
and formality that luxury SUV customers expect. The simplicity is perfectly in tune with our Scandinavian design heritage. It opens up generous surfaces and gives us the opportunity to create a modern, luxurious interior architecture’ The all-new Volvo XC90 interior combines materials such as soft leather and wood with hand-crafted details, including a gear lever made of crystal glass from Orrefors, the famous Swedish glass maker, and diamond-cut controls for the Start/ Stop button and volume control. Craftsmanship has been in sharp focus during the whole development
work. The genuine seven-seater features new, innovatively designed seats that also free up interior space for passengers both in the second and third seat rows. The third row offers class-leading comfort for two passengers up to 170 cm tall. The all-new Volvo XC90 features one of the top audio systems available in the automotive world after Volvo Cars’ audio experts joined forces with their counterparts at the renowned British audio equipment company Bowers & Wilkins. The top-of-the-line system in the all-new Volvo XC90 features a 1 400
watt Class D amplifier and 19 Bowers & Wilkins speakers. It also includes one of the first air-ventilated sub-woofers in a car. Integrated into the car body, it turns the whole interior space into a giant sub-woofer. The latest sound processing software has been used to manage the timing of the sound and co-ordination of the speakers. This brings the emotional experience of a worldclass live performance into the car. Two main accessory themes The all-new Volvo XC90 is available with a range of accessories that make it possible for the owner to create a truly personalised car. There are two major exterior styling themes: The Urban Luxury package combines a colour coordinated body kit with polished stainless steel detailing, such as front deco frames, front and rear skid-plates and side scuffplates. The 21-inch exclusive polished wheels complete the elegant look. The Rugged Luxury kit enhances the ruggedness of the XC90 SUV with tech matte black exterior trim, stainless steel skid-plates, running boards with illumination and integrated exhaust pipes. This version is supplemented by unique 22-inch wheels. Price and launch details • Full range details and pricing of the All-New Volvo XC90 Range will be available closer to the local launch; we expect prices to start at just under R800 000. •The all new Volvo XC90 AWD D5 First Edition is priced at R1 050 000. • The International Press drive will be around March next year. • Local launch is expected in the latter half of 2015 – possibly around August. • South Africa will get the TwinEngine T8.

Allnew Legacy and Outback grab more safety accolades for Subaru QUICKPIC The Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS) in the United States has recognised the all-new 2015 Subaru Legacy and Subaru Outback as winners of coveted 2014 Top Safety Pick+ awards. The redesigned Subaru Legacy achieved the highest possible rating of ‘good’ in the Institute’s crashworthiness evaluations of front small overlap, front moderate overlap, side impact, roof crush and rear impact. The sedan also received a ‘superior’ rating in the Institute’s front crash avoidance testing. The all-new 2015 Subaru Outback also achieved the highest possible rating of ‘good’ in the Institute’s crashworthiness evaluations, as well as a ‘superior’ rating in the front crash avoidance testing. Subaru continues to hold more 2014 IIHS Top Safety Pick awards than any other brand. Seven Subaru models, including the BRZ, WRX/STI and XV, have earned 2014 safety awards from IIHS – four with Top Safety Pick and three with Top Safety Pick+ including the Forester, Legacy and Outback. “While timing cannot yet be confirmed, the 2015 Subaru Outback will see South African roads in the future,” comments Subaru Southern Africa marketing manager, Ashley Lazarus. “The stellar safety performances of both the all-new Outback and Legacy once again go to prove the unwavering dedication to safety enforced by Subaru engineers, who integrate leading safety features like Subaru’s Ring-Shaped Reinforcement™ body structure to ensure all Subaru vehicles are as safe as can be. We are delighted to add two more Top Safety Pick+ awards to our safety arsenal!” The 2015 Subaru Legacy is still under consideration for the South African market.

Overberg Netbal skop goed af Die Overberg Netbalfederasie (ONF) is in 2014 gestig, nadat Netbal Suid-Afrika daarop aangedring het dat die Overberg sy eie netbalstreek moet hê. Die federasie bestaan uit die vier munisipaliteite: Theewaterskloof, Overstrand, Swellendam asook Agulhas-munisipaliteit. Caledon word dan ook beskou as die sentrale dorp vir die federasie en alle ligawedstryde sal volgende jaar op Caledon gespeel word. Die ONF het ook vanjaar ’n span ingeskryf vir die Wes-Kaap Ontwikkelingstoernooi wat plaasgevind het op 29 en 30 Augustus in die Paarl. Vrydagmiddag het hulle die WP B-span aangevat en het 28-9 gewen. Saterdag het daar vier wedstryde plaasgevind en ONF wen al vier die wedstryde: Weskus B 16-12, Sentraal Boland B 32-6, Boland B 18-15 en Eden B 28-14. Met dié mooi prestasies wen hulle die B-afdeling en verower goud. Jayrene Deez word aangewys as beste senterbaanspeler en Leonora Muller as beste verdediger en is gekies vir die Wes-Kaap Ontwikkelingspan (A-span) en Jaimie du Plessis word gekies vir die B-span. Hulle gaan in 2015 deelneem aan die Suidelike toernooi. Golf at our wonderful club was a little weather-restricted last week. Both Tuesday and Wednesday were washed out. However, we sent a team to King David to play in the PGA run inter-club tournament last Tuesday, which was a resounding success. There were 22 clubs that took part from all over the Western Cape and the club is glad to report that we came in a very credible fourth place overall. The tournament is run annually by the PGA of South Africa specifically for club management and committee members to meet and exchange ideas for the betterment of club golf. Well done all involved. Saturday the weather was absolutely perfect and a very relieved 112 players poured onto the course and enjoyed a betterball bogey plus. Coming out on top was a twosome familiar with the prize table, John Rhodes and Gerry Coates, who won the count out from Wanda Venter and Rusty Demmer, and Stephan van

This week the club is hosting the Cricket Club golf day on Friday and next week Friday the Northcliff House College golf day. Please folks, support these days.

Brilliant golfing weather for DOGS The DOGS played an Individual Stableford (log) on 2 September at Arabella. Once again, the DOGS were caught out by the weather on Tuesday at Arabella. Venturing out of their winter quarters, they were confronted with cloudless blue skies, blindingly bright sunshine and the eerie stillness of a lack of wind. Only four managed to cope reasonably well with the conditions but at least the rest of the field bravely battled through to the 18th for a change. Mr. Countback achieved his maiden solo victory without having to resort to a calculator. 37 Jon Forsyth; 36 Andre Franken; 35 Dave Rade; 34 Morgan O’Kennedy; 27 Peter Thomas, Art Rae (guest); 26 Peter Sulley, Peter Theron, Hugo Steyn (guest); 25 Dave Smith; 24 Pat Dewil; 23 Sam Seal, John Tunstall; 22 Gordon Wilson, Alan Smith; 21 Hugh Frangs; 15 Trevor Vaughan. - DAVE SMITH
