77,7% VOTER TURNOUT: OVERSTRAND RESULTS

DA keeps top spot while ANC gains KERRY VAN RENSBURG A total of 38 615 registered voters in the Overstrand cast their national votes in the general election on 7 May. This means 77,7% of 49 660 registered voters in this municipal area went to the polls to make their mark, which is more than the overall national figure for SA which stands at 73,43%. Of the total number of national votes cast, 38 328 were valid and 287 were spoilt votes. In the 2009 general election 42 587 voters in the Overstrand were registered and 82% of them participated in the national vote. For the 2014 provincial vote, 37 392 votes were cast in the Overstrand Municipal Area of which 37 109 were valid and 283 were spoilt. According to final results from the IEC’s provincial communications office, the DA (Democratic Alliance) won 58,56% of the votes cast in the Overstrand for the provincial election and 55,74% of the national votes cast locally. Mayor Nicolette Botha-Guthrie, the leader of the DA in the Overstrand, says she is very happy with the outcome of the general elections in the Overstrand. “My people worked very hard over many months when the election machinery kicked in with voter registra-

tion weekends.” Botha-Guthrie says the DA met their targets, but no celebration was planned. “We believe in getting back to work straight away.” She says the tendencies which they picked up during this election will form the basis for their strategic planning for the 2016 local elections. According to Dayne Nel from Whale Coast FM, Hawston was the most closely contested area in the Overstrand. She reports that the DA walked away with 49,44% of the votes in Hawston with the ANC hot on their heels with 40,41%. The ANC (African National Congress) won 36,22% of the total votes cast by Overstranders in this year’s national election and 35,44% of the provincial votes. In the 2009 general election, 33,46% of Overstrand residents voted for the ANC and 54,51% of them voted for the DA in the national vote, which shows that the local ANC has gained ground. Ward 12 councillor, Vuyani Macotha, and head of mobilisation for the ANC in this area, says: “We are very pleased with the support we got from our voters. We increased the number of votes in our ANC basic wards and increased numbers in some ‘hostile’ wards.” He says Theo Oliver (former deputy mayor of the Overstrand) will be

serving in the Provincial Legislature, where he will be joined by Maurencia Gillion, local ANC councillor. According to the mayor’s office, no local DA members will be serving in the Provincial Legislature. The VFP (Vryheidsfront Plus) received 1 079 votes in the national election, which is 2,82% of the total number of votes cast in the Overstrand, and 509 votes in the provincial election – 1,37% of votes cast. The EFF (Economic Freedom Fighters) won 521 votes in the provincial vote and 564 national votes, which is 1,47% of the total votes cast in the Overstrand. Gigobani Nozongava, EFF national candidate and local representative deployed to the Overstrand, says: “We are very happy with the results in the Overstrand and as a new party we have something to celebrate. The EFF will now form formal structures around the country and start preparing themselves for local government.” Several of the 29 voting stations in the Overstrand had well over 80% voter turnout. At the Hou Moed voting station in Zwelihle, 99,56% of their 1 349 registered voters turned up. At the De Mond Caravan Park voting station, 93,29% (959) of the voters registered (1 028) at this venue made their cross in the national election.

Man van Stanford op R43 raakgery, sterf op toneel Tel 028 312 3154 Gateway Centre

Bring your items I will give you a TRUE and HONEST Valuation Then, take the best price for your items.

’n Man van Stanford is Vrydag 2 Mei op die toneel dood verklaar nadat ’n voertuig hom op die R43 tussen Caledon en Gansbaai naby Tembelihle omgery het. Die bestuurder en haar vriendin het in ’n verklaring aan die polisie verduidelik dat hulle om ongeveer 18:45 op pad na Gansbaai ’n slag teen die voertuig gehoor het. “Ek het heeltyd agter ’n ander kar gery toe ek iets aan die linkerkant van die pad sien. Dit het soos ’n groot tak gelyk of iets. Die volgende oomblik het ek ’n harde slag gehoor.” Die bestuurder het dadelik rem getrap. Omdat dit reeds donker was kon sy nie sien wat sy raakgery het nie en sy en haar vriendin

het besluit om om te draai en na die naaste polisiekantoor op Stanford te gaan om die voorval te rapporteer. Volgens Sarena Hugo, kommunikasiebeampte van die Stanford-polisie, was die vroue in die polisiekantoor toe dié stasie ’n oproep ontvang het om hulle in te lig dat iemand op die R43 omgery is. Lede van Stanford-polisie het die saak ondersoek en ’n 59-jarige man met kopbeserings in die pad aangetref. Die ambulans is ontbied, maar die persoon is op die toneel dood verklaar. Die oorledene, Alfred Daniel Frans (oom Gosh) van Stanford, het voor sy dood, volgens sy familie, gaan hout haal in die bosse.

HERMANUS MUSIC SOCIETY Quentin Crida (lead violin) has assembled a highly-accomplished group of musicians including Suzanne Martens (1st violin), Reneé van der Westhuizen (2nd violin), Karin Gaertner (viola), Peter Martens (cello) and Grant Bräsler (harpsichord) to play one of the most popular pieces in the classical music repertoire:

’n Man (18) is Woensdagoggend 8 Mei naby die gemeenskapsaal in Proteadorp, Kleinmond vermoor. Die polisie is om 03:30 na die toneel ontbied waar hulle die man se liggaam op ’n oop veld gevind het. Bloed-streepmerke is op die toneel gevind, wat lyk of die slagoffer van iewers na die veld gesleep is. Drie verdagtes is kort daarna deur die Kleinmond-polisie in hegtenis geneem en het op 9 Mei in die Caledon-hof verskyn. Volgens ao. Jaco van Wyk van Kleinmond-polisie het die slagoffer nog gelewe toe die polisie op die toneel aankom, maar het minute daarna van ’n meswond gesterf.. Die drie verdagtes verskyn weer in die hof om vir borgtog aansoek te doen.

Een van die gedenkteëls op die VOS kuspaadjie wat deur vandale beskadig is en tydelik gegom is.

Vandale beskadig gedenkteëls JANINE VAN DER RIET Altesaam 20 gedenkteëls op die Vermont/Onrus/Sandbaai (VOS) kuspaadjie moet nou vervang word nadat skoorsoekers dié teëls stukkend gekap het. Die grootste skok, sê Avril Steenkamp, die voorsitter van VOS, is dat die vandalisme tydens skoolvakansies gebeur “wat maak dat mens dit op besoekers wil blameer”. Die teëls word teen R2 000 stuk gekoop ter nagedagtenis aan ’n geliefde, en word op die kuspaadjie tussen Vermont en Sandbaai aangebring. Steenkamp sê hul beleid is dat die beskadigde teëls ’n maksimum van drie keer gratis deur VOS vervang word, maar daarna is dit die teël-eienaar se verantwoordelikheid. Daar is ’n beloning van R1 000 vir inligting wat kan lei tot die inhegtenisneming van die skuldiges. Bel Steenkamp op 082 789 9211.

New substation increases Overstrand’s capacity A new electricity substation, which is regarded as one of a kind in the country, was officially opened on Tuesday 29 April. The Walker Bay 66/11 kV substation, situated in Swartdam Road, was built after numerous considerations as the electricity demand for Hermanus has grown from 13,8 MVA in 1998 to a measured 24 MVA in 2012. This means the demand for electricity has almost doubled in 14 years. The existing Eskom supply point limits the Hermanus supply to 24 MVA. During the design of the substation, a few challenges were encountered, including the following: • No 66 kV overhead lines were built, only 66 kV underground cables from the existing Eskom substation were installed. • A substation in an urban environment had

to fit in with neighbouring environments due to it being situated on the boundary between a residential and industrial area. • Safety features – firewalls around the transformers were built to fend off any possible explosion and fires from the neighbouring houses and to dampen transformer noise. • Indoor GIS switchgear – which reduces the footprint of the substation as well as reduces maintenance over the life-cycle of the substation. • Through proper long-term planning they were able to integrate the new substation into the existing 11 kV network. According to the municipality “the building of this substation shows the tremendous growth of the municipality over these few years, and the way it is investing its resources in ensuring that the growth is sustainable.”

Kleinmonder wen groot met woord Opperman het R500 aan die WAT geskenk om die druk van die woordeboek te ondersteun. Die woord wat hy geborg het is ‘merriekonserrie”. Opperman, toe hy gehoor het van die prysgeld, het woord by welwillende daad gevoeg en dié hele bedrag aan die WAT geskenk. Dr. Willem Botha, hoofredakteur en uitvoerende direkteur van die WAT, het Opperman gevra om ’n verdere vyf woorde te borg en sy keuses was: skeppingsmagtig, welwillendheid, welluidend, wêreldgebeure en verskansing. Volgens Opperman het hy die skenking ge-

maak omrede sy liefde vir die taal en daarom ook die ondersteuning aan WAT, wat tans besig is met die vaslegging van ons moedertaal in die woordeboek. “Ons moet onthou dat niemand anders vir die voortbestaan van Afrikaans sal sorg nie. Ons moet dit koester, dit vaslê, dit suiwer gebruik,” het hy gesê. “En daarmee wil ek my wrewel te kenne gee met die baie Afrikaanssprekendes wat so lief is om ’n Engelse woord tussen-in te gooi. Dis actually en awesome en fantastic tot vervelens toe. “Waarom? Wie wil hulle beïndruk? Hulle stel hulleself bloot as mengelpraters en doen hulle taal ’n onreg aan.” Opperman voeg by dat Afrikaanssprekendes nooit moet vergeet dat Afrikaans in dié land ontstaan het nie. “Dit het gegroei uit hierdie bodem. Dit is ’n absolute wonderwerk, want waar die En-

gelse, Duitsers en Franse gekoloniseer het, het die koloniste daardie tale voortgeplant in Afrika. “Maar Jan van Riebeeck neem die suidpunt van Afrika in besit met ’n Nederlandse verklaring. En jare later kom die eerste Afrikaanse woorde, eers krom en skeef, maar geleidelik al helderder en mooier in die joernalistieke idioom, in poësie, boeke, briewe en uiteindelik in wetenskaplike verhandelings. “Dog sy moes haar pad oop stry teen Nederlands en Engels. Die enigste voorbeeld van so ’n oorspronklike nuweling in die hele wêreld. Maar juis haar stryd om leefruimte maak haar sterk en gee karakter en daarom is ek trots op haar.” Dr. Botha het ná sy besoek aan die Oppermans die Hermanus Afrikaanse Kultuurontspanningsklub (HAKOK) toegespreek oor die onderwerp “Is Afrikaans tans op die kruin of op die rand van die afgrond?”.

Motor, bromponie, kano verwoes in brand JANINE VAN DER RIET Vanaf bl. 1: ’n Inwoner van Westcliff se hare het erg geskroei toe hy Woensdag laatoggend sy motor uit sy brandende motorhuis wou red. Dit blyk Eddie Lötter se bromponie, wat langs sy motor geparkeer gestaan het in die motorhuis langs die woonstel in Marine-rylaan in Westcliff, het skielik aan die brand geraak. Lötter (79) en sy vrou Sannie (73) woon in die woonstel agter sy suster, Hetta van der Merwe (89,) se huis in Marine-rylaan. Lötter was in die woonstel toe hy vir Sannie en Hetta hoor skree. Hulle was binne Hetta se huis toe hulle die brand in die motorhuis gewaar. Hy het uit die woonstel gehardloop en die motor uit die motorhuis probeer stoot, maar die vlamme het reeds die kar begin verswelg. Van die Overberg-brandweer en Metro-ambulanspersoneel was besig met brandopleiding en oefensessies dié spesifieke oggend. Soos Eddie Theron van Metro op die toneel vertel het: “Ek het na die “stormweer” en “don-

ker wolke” in die lug gekyk toe ek skielik besef dit is nie donker wolke nie, maar ’n brand!” Noodpersoneel het dadelik na die toneel gehaas. Omstanders het ook intussen die brandweer gekontak. Volgens ’n reddingswerker op die toneel, blyk dit dat die brand by die bromponie ontstaan het. “In 99% van dié soort gevalle ontstaan die brand as gevolg van ’n kortsluiting in die bedrading van die voertuig en/of ’n bromponie.” Lötter is op die toneel deur EMR Ambulansdienste ondersoek vir moontlike beserings. Maar behalwe vir ’n brandmerk op sy vinger en sy hare wat geskroei is, was hy ongedeerd. Gelukkig is die huis en woonstel nie deur die brand beskadig nie, behalwe vir die motor en bromponie waarop Lötter nie versekering uitgeneem het nie. Hy is ook baie hartseer oor sy opblaaskano wat in die motorhuis was en ook in die brand verwoes is. Hy het dikwels met die kano van die Ou Hawe na die Nuwe Hawe gevaar en dit was uitstappies wat hy terdeë geniet het.

The leading lady in the production of Grease, performed by learners of Hermanus High School last year, is bound for starry horizons. Savanna Bullough, who matriculated last year, has gained a scholarship entry to the prestigious Italia Conti Arts Centre in Guildford, UK. Her mother Fiona says Savanna’s theatre, dance and song training enabled her to be accepted for an audition process at Italia Conti. “She went through a gruelling two hour session and had to do three different dance disciplines, two musical theatre songs and one acting piece.” Fiona attributes her daughters’ ability to compete against hundreds of potential students on an international level, to Savanna’s seven years of dance training with Marina’s Dance School. Italia Conti Arts Centre is the oldest musical theatre college in UK, and is regarded as a training centre of excellence. The Academy has participated in Royal Variety performances, Queen Elizabeth’s 40th anniversary and Golden Jubilee, Andrew Lloyd Webber Concerts, BBC TV and

Thereafter she hopes to join a touring production company which will hopefully bring her back here to Artscape.” Savanna first performed at Artscape in 2006 when she played the role of the first princess in The King and I.

Pringlebaai koop sy eie vuurwa ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN ’n Nuwe Unimog is aan die Pringlebaaibrandweerstasie oorhandig ná die gemeenskap geld ingesamel het vir die aankoop van die voertuig. Die brandweerwa is “Rocky” gedoop, klaarblyklik ’n bynaam wat die inisieerder van die geldinsamelingsprojek, Clayton Francis, in sy weermagdae op die lyf geloop het. Volgens Angelo Aplon, die stasiebevelvoerder van die Hermanus-stasie, word die Pringlebaai-brandweerstasie beman deur vrywilligers uit die gemeenskap en ondersteun deur Overstrand-munisipaliteit. “Die brandweerwa vervang ’n Nissan 2x4-bakkie wat hulle gebruik het. Die Unimog beskik oor meer water, ’n groter pomp en is ook vierwiel-aangedrewe.”

Die Pringlebaai-voertuig is meer gepas om veldbrande te bestry. “Dié voertuig is aangekoop deur geld wat die gemeenskap self ingesamel het.” Dit het die vrywilligerskorps van Pringlebaai vyf tot ses jaar se geleenthede en skenkings (van heelparty groot finansiële instellings) gekos om genoeg geld bymekaar te maak vir dié vuurwa. Die Overstrand-munisipaliteit is verantwoordelik vir die onderhoud van die voertuig. Die gemeenskap, saam met die Overstrand-munisipaliteit, is tans besig om ’n nuwe satelliet-brandweerstasie te bou. “Dié groep mense is ’n sprekende voorbeeld van hoe die gemeenskap en die brandweer saam kan werk om ’n veiliger omgewing te skep,” het Aplon gesê.

Geel wa’s vir Overstrand ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN Die Overstrand het verlede naweek twee nuwe brandweerwaens in ontvangs geneem, een vir die Overstrand brand- en reddingseenheid en ’n tweede vir die Pringlebaai-stasie. Volgens Angelo Aplon, die stasiebevelvoerder van die Hermanus-stasie, wat deel vorm van die Overstrand Brandweerdienste, is die brandweerwa vir Hermanus gebou volgens die vereistes van die Wes-Kaapse brandweerhoofde-komitee. “Alle brandweervoertuie is in verskillende klassifikasies verdeel. Die voertuig is dan in ’n ‘Urban pumper type 1’ omskep, wat die hoogste klassifikasie is vir struktuurbrande en reddingsdienste-voertuie. “Dié voertuig gee ons die vermoë om struktuurbrande en reddingsaksies te hanteer en sal aansienlik ons diens verbeter.” Dit is deur Marcé Projects, wat die brandweerwa gebou het, aan die Overstrand-munisipaliteit oorhandig tydens die Brandweerdiens-feesvieringe verlede naweek. Volgens Aplon is die Overstrand-brandweer reeds sedert 2008 besig om sy vloot van rooi na geel te verander en dus is die nuwe trok heldergeel. “Geel is meer sigbaar as rooi. Rooi is tradisioneel meer kenmerkend vir brandweervoertuie, maar brandweerdienste verrig heelwat meer funksies as net brande blus. “Die geel kan ook gesien word as ’n simbool

van die transformasie wat die Overstranbrandweer tans ondergaan, van waar ons lede dominerend bestaan het uit reserviste en vrywilligers, na meer professionele, opgeleide en voltydse personeel.” Volgens Aplon beskik die nuwe voertuig oor ’n bemanningskajuit wat ’n offisier sowel as vyf brandbestryders kan vervoer. Die brandweerwa kan 3 000F water hou. Verder het dit ’n 4 000F per minuut pomp en ander gespesialiseerde toerusting. “Brandbestryders sal opleiding ondergaan om die voertuig effektief aan te wend.” Volgens Aplon is daar tans nege brandweerwaens (uitsluitend bakkies) in die Overstrand. Dit sluit in die Unimog in Pringlebaai, ’n wa en tenker in Kleinmond, drie brandweerwaens in Gansbaai, en drie in Hermanus, wat die nuwe voertuig insluit.

More weekend fun at Platbos

0800 055 555

New municipal court out of the starting blocks ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN After years of planning, a new additional court – which will focus only on contraventions of municipal bylaws, is finally becoming a reality for the Overstrand. The cases which will be dealt with in this additional court will include noise complaints, speeding and traffic fines and violations of town planning and building regulations. “At the moment municipal bylaw contraventions have taken the back seat in the criminal court and are usually last to be heard,” says attorney and Law Society area representative of about 50 local attorneys, Adrian Louw. “This means that the enforcement of local bylaws becomes somewhat irrelevant. But it is important to try the individuals contravening these laws.” According to Louw, the municipality must start adopting a stance of zero tolerance where every small con-

travention of the law is prosecuted, leading to other crimes also decreasing. “With the help of the new municipal court, the magistrate’s court will also be able to operate at a higher capacity and give attention to serious crimes, including theft and drug related crimes. “The community wants to see a functioning law system. If the system starts falling apart, it leads to vigilantism within communities.” Louw is still concerned about the current magistrate’s court. “The additional court will help with the criminal case loads, but will not address the issues regarding the civil, family and children’s court. “There has not been enough spatial and personnel capacity for at least 15 years. The current magistrate’s court is in serious need of rebuilding and expansion.” Tender notices to furbish and shopfit the new building have been published (HT 1 May) and must be sub-

mitted by 23 May 2014. The Overstrand Municipality has already advertised for the position of a prosecutor/legal advisor (HT 8 May), while the magistrate will be appointed by the Department of Justice. Lionel Wallace, senior manager of law services at the Overstrand Municipality, said that a part of Harmony House, situated within the municipal grounds, will be converted for use as the new court. “Building will commence soon. The next step in the process is to appoint the necessary court officials, in line with the requirements from the Department of Justice. “Furniture for the court must go through a formal procurement process,” said Wallace. He added that the opening date for the additional court is subject to the process to bring the building up to the standards as set out by the department. The aim is to open the doors as soon as possible after the original planned date of 1 July 2014.

Victims grateful for support

EDITORIAL COMMENT Lend a helping hand With the voter turnout at 77,7%, the people of the Overstrand have had their say when it comes to leadership. But each of us can play a role in making our community better, cleaner and safer by working with the local municipality and being watchdogs to make sure good governance and service delivery prevails. And then, after a long wait, the Hermanus fire station received a new bright yellow fire truck last week, replacing the written-off one. Better equipment means a safer environment for the whole community, as was evident with the quick response to a fire in Marine Drive this week. By working hand-in-hand, new goals can be set and achieved, as can be seen in Pringle Bay, where the community helped raise funds for their new fire engine. Hats off to the Pringle Bay community for taking the initiative and making a difference. And hats off to our readers who don’t shy away from saying their say and raising awareness of issues that could otherwise stagnate. Lemm’s Corner being a current example.

Biological control needed in fight against alien invasives The article “Alien hackers give fynbos a fighting chance” in the Hermanus Times of 8 May refers: All of us who cherish our fynbos and realise how big a threat alien invasives are to it, owe Charlyn Vosloo and her team of volunteers and workers a huge vote of thanks. It is people like Charlyn who get off their couches and literally take up arms against the threat. But how big a threat are aliens and why should we care? CSIR environmental economist Dr Willem de Lange and CSIR ecologist Dr Brian van Wilgen have estimated that the value of services provided by ecosystems in South Africa amounts to an estimated R152 billion per year. The millions of rands contributed to the economy by nature-based tourism is not included in this estimate. Services provided by Mother Nature herself through eco-systems include water, grazing and biodiversity. The researchers comment: “If we allow al-

Hermanusmedici ‘melk’ pasiënte

As nuwe intrekker vanaf Gauteng net meer as ’n jaar gelede, was ek verbaas om te sien hoe die mediese beroep pasiënte in Hermanus “melk”. In Hermanus is daar blykbaar nie ’n privaat dokter, spesialis of X-straal-departement wat ingekontrakteer is nie. By almal moet jy uit jou eie sak ’n bedrag inbetaal ongeag wie jy is. Miljoenêr, gewone werkersklas met ’n siekefonds, of ’n pensioenaris wat probeer oorleef ná jou duur mediese fonds van jou karige pensioen afgetrek is. Was my verbasing nog groter toe ek onlangs ’n sonar by die enigste privaat X-straal-kliniek op die dorp moes laat doen. Met ’n afspraak in my hand en voorbereiding wat ek die vorige dag al moes doen, het ek in die sonarkamer gewag. Die dokter aan diens was besig met ’n CT-skandering. Ná 20 minute se wag word ek deur die radiografis meegedeel dat die dokter nie weet hoe om die sonar te doen nie en of ek ’n herskedulering vir ’n ander dag wil maak wanneer daar ’n ander dokter aan diens sal wees. Sjoe, sowaar! Dié dokter weet hoe om ’n CTskandering te doen maar nie hoe om ’n sonar te doen nie. Dit laat ’n mens wonder waar het die dokter sy opleiding gehad? Hierdie was vir my onaanvaarbaar. Wat as die volgende dokter ook nie weet hoe om die sonar te doen nie? Geen waarborge nie. My tyd en opoffering is blykbaar nie vir die duur kliniek van belang nie. Ek glo die rekening sou wel onmiddellik ná die prosedure na my siekefonds gestuur word. En dan, tydens ’n privaat besoek by die provinsiale hospitaal het ek kennis geneem van die netheid van die hospitaal in teenstelling met baie ander staatshospitale waar ek nie eers my doodsertifikaat sal laat uitskryf

Your front page article “Hemel-en-Aarde Valley farm attack – two of four suspects still at large” (HT 8 May) refers. On Wednesday 30 April at about 21:00 we experienced what every South African family fears most – an armed robbery in their homes. We were tied up and held at gunpoint, our house was ransacked and the perpetrators escaped in our car, which they crashed enroute to Hermanus. We immediately reported this incident to the Hermanus police station and were astounded at the rapid response and professional service of all their officers throughout the entire investigation. Warrant Officer Fouché and his team are to be applauded for their highly professional approach, their diligence and support. They are a credit to the SAPS and we would like to put on record our appreciation for their efforts to make an unpleasant situation manageable and for their commitment to solving this crime. We would also like to extend our thanks to the neighbouring farmers for their kind wishes and offers of support following the incident. Sadly, in light of our experience we are compelled to install high-level security measures to ensure our safety; while this is not how one would choose to live in our valley, common sense dictates otherwise.

nie. Ek het besluit om dié staatshospitaal op die proef te stel. Behalwe vir die lang wag om my lêer op die eerste dag oop te maak het dinge daarna redelik vlot verloop. ’n Afspraak vir ’n sonar is gemaak. Die oggend van die sonar was ek gelukkig om net twee persone voor my te kry en binne 20 minute was ek op pad na die X-straal- afdeling waar ek vriendelik ontvang is. Die opvolgafspraak ’n week later by die kliniek was ’n heel ander storie. My afspraak was vir 15:00 geskeduleer. Ek het om 14:25 aangemeld om tyd toe te laat vir die verkryging van my lêer. Daar het reeds ’n pasiënt by die enigste toonbank wat oop was gesit en nog agt ander pasiënte wat wag. Die klerk aan diens het duidelik nie geweet wat sy moet doen nie en het meer agter met papiere rondgeloop as met die pasiënt gepraat. Na wat gevoel het soos ’n ewigheid is die pasiënt se saak afgehandel. Nadat ek die klinieksuster meegedeel het van my vertraging by ontvangs, het sy gaan navraag doen. Nog ’n toonbank is daarna oopgemaak, maar o wee, die klerk het slegs een persoon gehelp (20 min.), haar handsak geneem en by die hoofdeur uitgestap. Duidelik het sy ’n veer gevoel vir die mense wat al lank sit en wag. Iets wat ’n mens nie in die privaatsektor sal kry nie. My geduld was ná 50 minute en ’n verstreke afspraak op breekpunt en het ek aangedring om die hoof van die afdeling te spreek. Verskeie redes is aangevoer waarom die diens op die betrokke dag nie na wense was nie – klerk met verlof en ander op tee of ete en dié wat beskikbaar was, ken nie die werk nie. Tot my verbasing het ek ook gehoor dat

iens to dominate our natural ecosystems, the systems will lose their ability to deliver many of the benefits on which we depend for our livelihoods. Invasive alien plants use excessive amounts of water and smother our remarkable biodiversity, resulting in reduced river flow, a loss of grazing and a loss of harvested products from the veld.” Fire-adapted trees like pines and hakeas contribute to 20% of the alien impact in fynbos ecosystems, while invasive Australian acacia trees contribute about 80%. However, hacking and poisoning of invasive species by dedicated hackers in Hermanus and the considerable efforts of Working for Water in the rest of the country will never win the war. We need the help of nature itself. Biological control of these aliens by pathogens from their country of origin has been used successfully in South Africa and is an essential part of the offensive strategy. Pathogens include seed and flower-eating indaar 20 tot 30 minute per pasiënt by ontvangs toegelaat word. Kom ons doen ’n berekening teen gemiddeld 20 minute per pasiënt. Jy kom aan by ontvangs en daar sit reeds 10 mense en wag. Nie ongewoon vir ’n normale werksdag nie. As daar ’n pasiënt elke 20 minute gehelp word en my wiskunde my nie in die steek laat nie gaan pasiënt nr. 11 dus ongeveer 200 minute wag. Dit is swak diens punt! Interne probleme mag nooit na die publiek oorspoel nie. Daar is bejaardes, verwagtende moeders, moeders met klein kindertjies en mense wat soms erge pyn verduur wat op harde stoele sit en wag. ’n Mens voel jammer vir die mense wat geen ander opsies het nie, dit is onmenslik en onregverdig. Die enigste ligpunt by die hospitaal is die vriendelikheid van die meeste personeel, veral by die kliniek. Dankie klinieksusters, julle is die ware sterre. “I put it to you” Hermanus Hospitaal, word wakker. Daar is maniere om die probleem op te los sonder enige ekstra kostes. Trek die lêers van pasiënte met afsprake voor die tyd en laat ontvangs dit uitdeel soos hulle aanmeld. Die ry sal baie korter en die wagperiode aansienlik minder wees. Die kliniek hoef dan nie te wag vir pasiënte wat hulle lewe omsit in die ontvangs nie. Dit gaan bitter min tyd van die klerk by ontvangs neem en groot verligting op die wagtyd plaas. Die regering wil graag mediesefonds-pasiënte in hul hospitale sien om finansiering te help. Dit gebeur nêrens nie en sal ook nie met die huidige toedrag van sake in Hermanus gebeur nie! Pasiënte met siekefondse sal na die eerste besoek vlug en nooit weer terug kom nie.

sects, fungal diseases, wasps that produce galls, and so forth. De Lange and Van Wilgen add that they found biological control to be very effective in protecting ecosystem services. If there had been no biological control of invasive alien plants in South Africa, the country would have lost ecosystem services worth R48,2 billion per year. They estimate that controlling the invasive Australian trees just in fynbos has saved us R1,4 billion per year. The biological control of aliens in fynbos is one of the fascinating topics in the course on Fynbos offered at Hermanus FynArts, on 15 June. Anyone who is concerned about protecting biodiversity, not just in Hermanus, but in the entire Cape Floristic Region, will find the course of great interest.

The weather menu offers a mixed grill this week, with a bit of rain on Thursday, sunshine on Friday, and more rain on Friday evening lasting until Saturday morning. The sun will be out again on Saturday afternoon but an icy easterly wind will push the temperature down to a low of 13 °C.

Dankie vir Fynbos + Fine Arts = FynArts Dankie vir die FynArts-fees. So jammer dat iemand ’n klippie in die skoen moet hê daaroor (AvN, HT 1 Mei). FynArts verdien ’n staande ovasie op alle fronte. Die woordspeling op “Fynbos” en “Fine Arts” is pittig. Die tydsberekening, om Hermanus se galerye, restaurante, gastehuise en inwoners te dra deur die donkerste, natste deel van die winter, verdien applous. Die veelsydige program met ’n magdom genres is enig en intiem op die feeskalender duskant Oudtshoorn. Hope plaaslike talent kry kans om uit te stal en vir die res is daar blootstelling aan die beste van buite.

Die mate waartoe die program deur die hele Hermanus meander, deur dorpskern tot in Zwelihle, van Hawston tot in Hemel-en-Aarde, is merkwaardig. Die praktiese en gebruikersvriendelike glansboekie beïndruk. Die webtuiste is ’n voorbeeld vir ander feeste, wat soms tot verwarrens toe bladsye en bladsye “lysies” beslaan. Dankie vir die innovering om vir 10 dae in Hermanus, met sy gebrek aan “voete” buite seisoen en sy “mespunt”-sakebestaan, fakkeltjies aan te steek om die dorp in die donker winter te verlig.

Dank vir volgehoue liefdevolle versorging oor jare heen, dank vir professionele dienslewering en dank vir die warm ontvangs met elke besoek. Ons ma kon nie in ’n beter plek gewees het

nie. Telkens het ons verstom gestaan oor die geduld en empatie waarmee inwoners behandel is. Hulle het ons gerusstelling gebied deurdat hulle vir ons ingestaan het met die versorging van ons verswakkende ma. Sy het nooit ’n tekort aan aandag en liefde ervaar nie.

It is important for us all to work together to ensure a positive future for our youth. The fact is that many of our youth are poor, disadvantaged and dispossessed. Many fall through the cracks through bad choices.

Our role as the Humanity Youth organisation and leaders is to provide youth with alternatives and help guide them into a brighter future.

Weerspyskaart ’n ‘mixed grill’ Mens kan skaars glo dat die jaar so vlieg. Ons is reeds in die 20ste week van die jaar en is dus amptelik op die eerste paar treetjies van die winter. Mens kan dit hier in die Overstrand aan die koue wind in die rug voel. En wat kan mens vanjaar van die winter verwag? Weet nie, reken Langfaan, maar hy wil vir ons sê dit gaan nie ’n gewone winter wees nie. Die weer had die afgelope week wel sy gewone mombakkies vir hierdie tyd van die jaar, maar kyk net hoe verskil die voorspellings in die media. Een ding is egter seker; die komende naweek sal nie heelpad plesierig wees nie. Die reëntjie wat oor ons uitsak, lig Vrydag met dagbreek ’n bietjie op en dit is die hele dag sonnig; maar net voor 7de Laan môreaand aanvang, raak dit weer reënerig tot Saterdagoggend, met genoeg wolke om besoekers aan die Overstrand af te skrik. Die ligte bries uit die ooste sal rondom 13° draai. Die geneuk kom by die Indiese hoogdruk wat nie dié kant toe of daai kant toe ordentlike konveksie kan bewimpel nie. Hy was Woensdag nog ’n sterk hoogdruk van 1 024 hPa op 40° suid en het hom sedert Dinsdag verlustig aan konveksie tussen twee laagdrukke, die een by Gough en die ander by Marion. Vandaar die algemene voorspellings dat dit Saterdag heeldag sal reën. Weerhaan sê aikôna, die outjie het nie genoeg woema om die druk van die

Atlantiese hoog (1 028 hPa) te trotseer nie en sal moet aanbeweeg. Net ’n paar druppels kan val. Die vlieg in die salf is egter die klein laagdruk aan die noordweskus vanwaar Donderdag se reën eintlik vandaan kom. Hy is so klein dat mens hom skaars op die skerm kan sien en pure mossie maar man. Die sonnetjie wat Saterdagmiddag deurbreek, bly tot Maandagaand met sonsak met ons. Die oostewind kom dan weer aan. Maar moenie dink Sondag se son gaan vir almal lekker wees nie. Mense! Dit gaan tot 13 °C daal want die oostewind kom uit ’n nat en koue OosKaap. En wat het dit alles te doen met Langfaan se swartgalligheid dat die winter vanjaar steeks gaan wees? Mens sien dit aan die jong saailinge in die dorpstuine. Mens kry omtrent niks aan die groei nie. Dit lyk of die plantjies weet wat voorlê. Net die jong klomp op die branderplanke in hul rubberpakke is nie bekommerd nie. Die lekker winter deinings wag.

CILENE BEKKER Kidbrooke resident Kathleen Dorothy Hamilton, née Hudson, celebrated her 100th birthday on 12 May, in the company of her two daughters, Mary Jane and Tessa. Mary Jane says her mom was born in a certain Mrs Batchelor’s house in Lovers Walk, Rondebosch, and that “this has always amused her”. “Mum used to work at Metro Goldwyn Mayer in Johannesburg when she met and married dad Maurice Hamilton during the war.” Mary Jane also tells the story of her mum’s parents who had returned to Cape Town from the UK and that Kathleen’s father had brought the first hydroplanes to South Africa along with Royal Flying Corps pilot Dennis Cutler. In a report in The Daily News dated September 9, 1969 (which Mary Jane showed the Hermanus Times) it states that, “For centuries man has been boating and swimming. But the earliest record of anybody aquaplaning or skiing in Durban Bay dates back to 1914 when Mr Gerard Hudson bought and imported two hydroplanes as a novel attraction for the gala season. It was used for flips around the Bay.”

BASAARWARMTE TEEN DIE WINTER KOUE: Die NG Kerk Hermanus se kerk basaar Vrydag was weereens ’n enorme sukses ten spyte van die koue en reën. Volgens die koster, Hester Fourie, het hul le kort voor 17:00 die deure oopgemaak en was verkope fluks. Pannekoeke, heer like tuisgebak en vars vleis is sommer vinnig uitverkoop. Rothea Kleynhans, Rhoda Brynard, Hanna Patterson en Ma riaan Verster moes bontstaan om voor te bly met die vraag na pannekoeke.

Daughters Mary Jane and Tessa celebrated their mum’s 100th birthday on Monday 12 May. Kathleen Hamilton has been living at Kidbrooke Place for the past 10 years. It was later taken to Kenya during WWI where it was used to trace the Koningsberg, a German boat hiding on an East African river. Mary Jane and Tessa have enriched Kathleen’s life with six grandchildren, who added eleven great-grandchildren to the family fold.

MA EN DOGTERFUNKSIE: ’n Ma en dogterfunksie by Wellness Emporium Salon het op 3 Mei plaasgevind. ’n Modevertoning en ’n heerlike ontbyt is geniet saam met kliënte. Die missie by Wellness Emporium is om kliënte te help met leefstylbeplanning, soos gesonde eetwyses, skoonheidsgewoontes, streshantering, detoksifikasie, kolon spoelings ens. Hulle spesialiseer ook in niesjirurgiese estetiese behandelings. By die funksie is Marcel Hartman van Omega 3, Deirdré Grobbelaar, eienaar van Wellness Emporium Salon, Abigail Reck, Denike le Roux, Natasha Byleveld, Sophia Byleveld, Cin dy Khonco, Apologies (voor) en Elna Botha, ontvangsdame van Wellness Emporium.

Bringandbraai fundraiser a huge success The Hermanus Staan Saam (HSS) organisation and the Overberg Food and Blanket drive had a very successful Bring-and-Braai evening on Friday 2 May. This event was organised to raise funds for both HSS and the Overberg Food and Blanket drive. HSS supports poor families in the Hermanus area and the Overberg Food and Blanket project was created to collect blankets and food for the five Overberg animal shelters. The event was hosted at

Bikers Pub in the Hermanus industrial area. Organisers Tronel Meintjies and Danica Palvie would like to thank each and every person who supported the evening. More than 100 people attended the event and blankets and food were donated which will be distributed to those in need. Tronel Meintjies from HSS and At the event Graham van Danica Palvie from the Over berg Food and Blanket drive or Heerden from the Bikers Club paid homage to Eastganised the fundraiser. wood Loftus Nel, the bikelover who had passed away earlier that day.

BOONTJIES KRAAL HIS TORY: Uwe Kersandt and Doreza De Wet, authors of the book Boontjieskraal, addressed members of the Hermanus History Society on 6 May dur ing an outing to the farm. Members learnt about the history of and life on Boontjieskraal. The farm area, which dates back to the early 18th century, is situ ated at a crossroads in the Overberg on the old Cape Wagon Way. The members also visited the area where Hermanus Pieters is buried. Hermanus Pieters taught at Boontjieskraal as well as other farms. His name was given to the town, which was originally called Hermanuspietersfontein be fore it was abbreviated to Hermanus in 1902. ......................... PHOTO: FRANS THEUNISSEN

5 years on and lots to smile about It’s hard not to smile when you enter the iSmile orthodontic practise of Dr Frans Kruger in Northcliff, Hermanus. Even though the main reason for visiting is exactly because your smile isn’t as perfect as it can be. It’s the warm, perfect teeth welcome smile you receive from Dr Kruger when you walk through the doors of his practice, adjacent to his and wife Louisa’s home at 9 Impala Street. This month it has been five years since he first opened his doors. And there are at least three reasons for celebrating.

Not least of all the addition of little Estella (1) to the family fold, a sister to Sophia, who is now three years old. “Yes, we’re growing on all fronts,” says Frans with a proud grin. Another reason to celebrate is the extension of the services offered by Dr Kruger. Although 90% of his clients are and will remain children who require orthodontic attention, he does now offer facial aesthetics for adults. He explains: “It’s Botox and fillers. All this is still in the same field of enhancing your smile. Botox everyone knows, and fillers are for smoothing out those laughing lines around the mouth.” Dr Kruger offers this service twice a week, in the mornings. But his main focus is still dental orthodontics for children. “This is the other reason for celebrating. To give a public thank you to our clients for their continued support. It is great to see some of the brothers and sisters of their now older siblings also coming in for braces. So many of the same families have remained

Frans says he still manages a few games of golf and squash with a pilatus class thrown in now and again, but he’s had to wave goodbye to kitesurfing now, with little Estella now on board too. Louisa, besides being a mom and the manager of the pratice, still runs her popular Saturday morning ante-natal classes. She too has had her turn in her husband’s chair ‘to sort out crowded teeth’ and sported tooth-coloured aesthetic braces for fifteen months.

Chamber AGM now on 22 May The Hermanus Business Chamber AGM will now take place on Thursday 22 May, from 18:00 to 20:00 at the Bowling Club. It will be combined with the soup and sherry networking session (that was planned for 12 June, but this clashes with FynArts events). An overview of last year and plans ahead will be discussed. The executive committee for the next year will also be appointed. The cost to attend is R50. RSVP to Alta Pretorius, chamberceo@hermanus.co.za or 028 315 1619.

‘More than lip service needed’ for CBD and Lemm’s Corner KERRY VAN RENSBURG The sad demise of Lemm’s Corner, as seen through the eyes of Beth and Noel Hunt, and their suggestions to restore this once vibrant and creative hub of Hermanus, has generated a great deal of interest. The Hunts, who have owned Hemmingways Bookshop in Harbour Road for the past 19 years, say that after their letter was published in the Hermanus Times of 24 April, they experienced a positive and supportive response to their proposal for Lemm’s Corner and the Hermanus CBD. They say: “As well as between 20 to 30 walkins and telephonic calls received at our shop, we have been informed that an executive consultant is currently proposing to negotiate a lease on Lemm’s Corner and will put forward a business plan to the relevant authorities.” Angela Heslop of the Hermanus History Society has indicated that the society is in favour of the proposal to bring about the restoration of the CBD and in particular Lemm’s Corner as a historical landmark of which the town can be proud. The Hunts confirm that considerable support has been shown for the upgrading of Lemm’s Corner with a view to perhaps transforming this area into a park with trees, benches, gardens, and a fountain. As far as the revitalisation of the CBD initiative that was launched some time ago, is concerned, the Hunts say: “In 2013 we attended a meeting by Petrus Hendrickz, held in the auditorium. We put our names down on a list confirming our wish to participate in the proposals for pro-active

change.” They continue: “Our focus as shop retailers in the CBD is not on the Sandbaai mall or any other such development, but solely on revitalising the CBD, which already is suffering as a result of the geographical shift to the Checkers/Woolworths malls.” The Hunts say in the last five years they have seen a radical down marketing of the CBD and the neglect surrounding Lemm’s Corner is a point in case. “Our proposals are not ‘about moaning’, but are rather pro-active suggestions with a view to creating change for the benefit of a town which stakes its claim internationally as the whale watching capital of the world.” The Hunts claim that at least eighteen months ago they sent a proposal to the mayor supporting the delineation of an old town, which was to include the revamp of Lemm’s Corner. “Shortly afterwards, we were visited at our shop by Ben Solomon, an official of the municipality. He enthused about the concept which we had suggested. To date, we have received no further response from either him, the mayor or any other member of the municipality.” Elizabeth du Toit, director of the Old Harbour Museum, says: “The Board of Trustees has already identified and approved the implementation of a long-term plan, including an enclosed garden with benches and lights for the Lemm’s Corner area, as well as a few permanent kiosks for selected traders. This was drawn up by an architect and is presently going through some processes, looking at some other input from various members of the community, tenants and traders. Since

the last two publications of the Hermanus Times, some more supportive proposals have come forward and all of these go to the Board of Trustees for its perusal. It will be meeting next week (Thursday 15 May) and will then give an indication of what the way forward will be.” Although Hemingways and other retailers do open 7 days a week, and have done so for some years now, there still remains a considerable number of shops who do not follow this pattern. “To the best of our knowledge there are no regulations, apart from Village Square, regarding retail shop hours. Although it should be obvious to retailers to take cognisance of the fact that Hermanus is a destination for visitors from Cape Town and further afield, an entrenched mindset still prevails with most shops closing midday Saturday only to reopen again on Monday morning,” say the Hunts. They say they had experienced a problem regarding the rental of their business premises as a result of the financial strain of annual increments way in excess of current inflation and market rates. They were, however, able to negotiate more realistic terms with their landlord. “Unfortunately, this is not the case with a number of small retailers. In fact a small business in the CBD is currently paying almost double the price per square metre as is being charged by the Cape Town Waterfront. The Hunts say: “We have been heartened to know that our vision for the CBD, especially Lemm’s Corner, is shared by so many others. However, more than lip service to make this a reality is required.”

With the launch of her Wellness Studio and Nutrition Club recently, Tanya treated her guests to a taste of the Herbalife range that she is using to promote a healthy

lifestyle. Tanya says: “The nutrition club is a way to create awareness about making better nutrition choices to live healthier lives.” At the Wellness Studio, with its nifty health bar, Tanya will make up a healthy meal for you. A whole ‘meal’ costs R40 and is a way to try the products before buying the range, or if you have skipped a meal (particularly breakfast) during the day. The club, situated at 1 Mimosa Street (inside Sugarberry Distributors) in the Industrial area, is open from Monday to Friday between 08:00 and 13:00.

Hermanus team back from tour ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN A tired but triumphant team of delegates returned earlier this week after blowing the trumpet for Hermanus and the Whale Coast at the annual Tourism Indaba. Blake Albert, general manager at the Windsor Hotel and one of the delegates, said the trip was a huge success and that they are hoping that the payoff will be visible within the next few months. Albert is part of a team of local business people who grouped together on a Hermanus On Tour mission to ensure a presence in the Inkosi Albert Luthuli Convention Centre (Durban ICC) at the Tourism Indaba in Durban held from 10 – 12 May. “The Indaba this year was a lot better than last year. The Whale Crier, Eric Davalala, was absolutely amazing. He captivated both the local and international visitors with his energy and everyone wanted to take a photo with him. He was truly an incredible ambassador for Hermanus and the Whale Coast as a whole.”

Albert said they used some old-school tactics to draw people to their stall. “We had a welcoming cocktail party, and on Mother’s Day we handed out little bouquets of Fynbos we had taken along for the trip.” A cardboard shark to advertise the region’s shark cage diving industry, was also a huge hit. “The teamwork between the delegates was outstanding. Everyone worked together, channelling the right energy. It was such a wonderful culmination of ideas and we drew a lot of attention,” said Albert. “There were also a number of bloggers who became very interested in the area and we are hoping that they will be visiting soon.” The Whale Crier is still on his way back from Indaba with the Hermanus Online team in their vehicle named Die Skip. Davalala will be welcomed home today (Thursday), when he completes the last leg of the journey. A party will be welcoming him at Hermanus Tourism at around 15:30. To follow his progress, sponsored by Multitrack, visit www.hermanusontour.co.za.

FINMONITOR: En as die beer oorneem? Die aandelebulmark wat reeds jare duur, het ernstige aandeelbeleggers goed beloon. Dit begeester terselfdertyd opportunistiese – eintlik naïewe – beleggers. Dié beleggers spring daagliks nog geesdriftig op die wa, meestal sonder ’n beleggingsplan. Blykbaar redeneer hulle so: “Aandelebelegging is pret, opwindend, lonend en eintlik eenvoudig. Kies ’n prominente aandeel, beursverhandelde fonds of laasjaar se wenner onder effektetrusts, dompel jou beleggingsgeld daarin, sit agteroor en kyk hoe jou rande meer word soos die JSE indekse nuwe hoogtepunte bereik. Beleggingsadviseurs is ’n beslommernis en kos geld; beleggingsplanne belemmer beweeglikheid.” En as die beer die bul verjaag? “Wel dan sal ons tog betyds uitspring”, meen hulle met selfvertroue. Wel, wel. Toe die JSE Algehele Indeks met sowat 44% tussen 2008 en 2009 getuimel het, het sulke beleggers (sonder ’n beleggingsplan) hulle op ’n bloedige slagveld bevind. Vir lank moes hulle slegs wonde lek en kon hulle nie aktief op die beurs optree nie. Maar nou, vyf jaar later, in ’n stewige bulmark, baljaar hulle weer. Vrae ontstaan oor die volhoubaarheid van die bulmark wat kort-kort nuwe hoogtepunte bereik. Die wêreldekonomie stotter, vraagtekens hang oor China se ekonomiese mirakel, die SA ekonomie vertoon swak en swakker, rentekoerse is blykbaar op ’n stygbaan, arbeidsonrus verlam van ons belangrikste uitvoersektore en sakesentiment is bedruk en kwesbaar. Teen hierdie agtergrond lyk aandelewaardasies hoog d.w.s. aandele van prominente maatskappye wat reeds opvallende

pryslopies gehad het, lyk duur. Dit verg dapperheid om te argumenteer dat ’n beurskorreksie buite die kwessie is. Ernstige beleggers pantser hulle teen die risiko van kapitaalverlies, besluitloosheid en verwarring indien so ’n situasie sou uitspeel deur op ’n deeglik-beredeneerde beleggingsplan staat te maak. Hoe gaan die opportunistiese beleggers so ’n situasie sonder ’n beleggingsplan trotseer? Eintlik baie moeilik. Hoe gemaak om ’n beleggingsplan in plek te kry? 1. Aanvaar dat elke belegger se situasie uniek is; daar bestaan nie ’n “one-size-fitsall”-beleggingsoplossing nie 2. Betrek ’n beleggingsdeskundige tensy jyself een is 3. Ontleed jou behoeftes: word gereelde inkomste-onttrekkings benodig; is kapitaal nodig vir kinders se opvoeding of aankoop van ’n nuwe motorvoertuig; is aanvulling van ontoereikende bestaande aftreevoordele nodig ens? 4. Ontleed jou totale finansiële situasie: uitstaande skuld, belastingpligtigheid, bestaande beleggings, ens. 5. Bepaal jou vermoë om risiko te kan hanteer – toepaslike metodes bestaan om dit te bepaal vanaf TOTAAL KONSERWATIEF (geen risiko-aptyt) tot UITERS AGGRESSIEF (groot risiko-aptyt). Hierdie stap is krities belangrik. 6. Wys beleggingsfondse toe aan bateklasse met verskillende risikoprofiele nl. aandele en eiendom (hoë risiko), rentebeleggings – geldmark en ander (laer risiko) in ’n mengsel wat jou risiko-aptyt weerspieël. Verfyn deur fondse tussen plaaslike en internasionale belegging te versprei. ’n Beleggingstrategie kristalliseer wat in ’n beleggingsplan vervat word.

7. Implementering van die beleggingsplan volg. Aandele, effektetrusts en rentebeleggings word uitgesoek, plaaslike sowel as internasionaal. Direkte aandelebelegging asook effektetrusts en ander geskikte beleggingsprodukte word vermeng om die toepaslike risikomengsel van die beleggingsportefeulje te verseker. 8. Die hele proses werk beste deur ’n beleggingskundige te betrek. Die beleggingsplan is die kompas wat koers aandui, rustigheid bring en vertroue inboesem veral wanneer die beleggingsomgewing onstuimig raak en versleg in ’n pynlike korreksie. Dit rig die toepaslike respons; deur by die plan te bly solank die belegger se omstandighede nie verander het nie word impulsiewe, emosionele beleggers-optrede voorkom. As die beer oorneem en die pret en opwinding verander na kommer en vrees namate beleggingswinste in verliese omswaai lyk sake glad nie meer eenvoudig nie. Dis dan wanneer die beleggingsplan, deurdag en deeglik opgestel, ernstige van opportunistiese en paniekerige van rustiger beleggers onderskei. En dis wanneer jy gemoedsrus waardeer. NOTA: Hierdie artikel behels nie uitdruklike advies nie. Dit is wys om altyd voor mens belê met jou beleggingsadviseur te skakel. Chris van Wyk is ’n senior portefeuljebestuurder by PSG, Hermanus.

Gansbaaisakekamer floreer Gedurende die algemene jaarvergadering van die Gansbaai-sakekamer het voorsitter Fanie Bothma uitgebrei oor die projekte wat hulle aangepak het en die “besonder goeie groei” in hul ledetal. Hy het onder meer verwys na die moeilike ekonomiese klimaat en hoe dit ook in Gansbaai gevoel word. “Die verbruiker kry swaar en ongeveer 50% van alle kredietgebruikers sit met ’n verswakte kredietrekord. Daarom is hulle nie in staat om te bestee nie – onlangse syfers bevestig dit ook. Ons voel dit ook in Gansbaai, maar sien wel tekens van hoop vir sakeondernemings.” Van die sakekamer se projekte deur die jaar was: ) ’n Vyf dag-lange entrepreneurskursus wat deur 26 gekeurde mense bygewoon is. Die aanbieder was dr. Johan Louw en die Afrikaanse Handelsinstituut (AHI) het dit gesubsidieer teen ongeveer R3 000 per persoon. “Ons moes sekere koste dra en die kerkgemeenskappe (Fraternal, die liggaam vir al die geestelike leiers in Gansbaai) het ons ondersteun deur geriewe beskikbaar te stel en die spyseniering te doen.” Ná ’n opvolgvergadering in Oktober is ’n “broeikas” gestig om deurlopende ondersteuning aan die jong entrepreneurs te verleen. “Hulle het groepleiers gekies wat nou self die strukture moet benut tot hul eie voordeel,” sê Bothma. ) Dieselfde week is ’n twee dag-lange entrepreneurskursus by Gansbaai Academia aangebied vir die senior leerders. Die kursus is ook geborg deur die AHI en aangebied deur Jannie Kruger van die AHI. Elke leerder het ’n handboek ontvang en op die skool se versoek is gereël dat die uitvoerende hoof van die AHI,

Christo van der Rheede, hulle toespreek oor ’n toekomsvisie en om leerders te motiveer om hul geleenthede te benut. Van der Rheede was ook die gasspreker by ’n geleentheid van die sakekamerlede waar hy sertifikate aan die jong entrepreneurs oorhandig het.

Ballet with a twist at FynArts “Bovim Ballet is honoured to be part of Hermanus FynArts,” said Sean Bovim, who founded the Cape Town company five years ago. Ovations, a programme with highlights from the company’s repertoire, will be staged in the Hermanus High School Hall on Saturday 7 June at 19:30. Audiences can prepare to be entertained and enthralled with hand-picked hits from Tango Nights, Swing Time, Romeo’s Kiss, Queen at the Ballet and Private Presley. The programme also offers a powerful fusion of fashion and dance. Sean is an award-winning South African choreographer whose creations have been presented worldwide. Over the past 15 years, he has made ballet accessible by creating popular works that have drawn in a new and young market. He enjoys pushing the boundaries choreographically and creates works that incorporate dance styles such as contemporary, jazz and even African dance without losing the basic principles of ballet technique. The Ovations dancers will also be hosting a dance workshop on 7 June between 11:00 and 12:00 noon in the Hermanus High School hall. Workshop tickets cost R50. ) Tickets at R120 are available at www.webtickets.co.za or Hermanus Tourism on 028 312 2629. For the full programme visit www.hermanusfynarts.co.za, or collect a booklet at the Hermanus Tourism office. If you purchase a minimum of four or five tickets at Hermanus Tourism, you could still get them at the early bird rate.

Make sure not to miss Bovim Ballet’s Ovations during FynArts on 7 June.

NATURE MATTERS Did you know: Most flowering plants are adapted to be pollinated by animals, especially in sects. About a third of all our food comes from crops (fruits and vegetables, maize and wheat) that are pollinated by insects, especially honeybees. They are ideal pollinators because they deliber ately collect pollen and continually move between flowers, often concentrating on a single plant spe cies, and move over large distances. Our world would be very different without hon eybees. So it is very worrying that honeybees are in severe trouble around the world. There is also some cause for concern in South Africa. We can help our bees by not spraying insec ticides and planting bee forage in our gardens.

FIREBLADE SP: EXTRACTING THE VERY BEST FROM EVERY RIDER

Honda launches CBR1000RR SP QUICKPIC For 21 years Honda has pursued a concept of “Total Control” with the Fireblade, after rewriting the rulebook in 1992 with the original CBR900RR. Over the last decade the CBR1000RR has developed into perhaps the most balanced Super Sport machine available, combining exceptional performance and handling with a satisfying ability to extract the very best from every rider. Victories in the World Super Bike (WSBK) championship and all-conquering success at the Isle of Man TT, with average lap speeds of 130 mph plus over 37,73 miles over the mountain course, is testament to the CBR1000RR’s innate capacity. The open-class CBR has built a loyal army of fans around the world over two decades especially with over 200 000 sold, throughout Europe. And in response to demand from hard-core performance enthusiasts, Honda for the very first time in 2014 is producing the CBR1000RR Fireblade SP. A track-focused, yet fully road legal, limited edition Sport Production version of the standard bike that not only looks special – it is special. In Japanese to give something ‘edge’ is to add polish. And for the dedicated track day goer that’s exactly what the CBR1000RR Fireblade SP has been given: “Total Control” with an extra edge. The chassis wears circuit-ready front and rear Öhlins suspension plus Brembo four-piston mono block calipers, with frame revisions and new top and bottom yokes to suit. Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tyres are the finishing touch. The 999.8cc inline four-cylinder engine gets the same updated cylin-

The CBR1000RR SP’s 999.8cc, 16valve inline fourcylinder engine has the same cylinder head updates as the standard machine. PHOTO: QUICKPIC der head as the standard 2014 CBR1000RR Fireblade, with improved inlet/exhaust gas flow and combustion efficiency, and an extra 2 kW peak power boost. However the SP features factory-matched pistons and con-rods, to ensure optimum internal balance. As a track-focused machine there’s no provision for a pillion and a sleek single-seat unit saves weight. Further marking the SP version out from standard is its own unique Tricolour paint – white and two-tone blue, with a central red stripe and trademark Honda gold wheels.

At 35 mm (from 38 mm) the exhaust pipe diameters are smaller, increasing torque and a new vertical connecting pipe balances pressure between cylinders two and three. Peak power of 133 kW – up 2 kW – arrives at 12 250rpm; torque is improved in the 4-6 000 rpm area, peaking with 114 Nm delivered at 10 500 rpm. The CBR1000RR SP’s 999.8cc, 16valve inline four-cylinder engine has the same cylinder head updates as the standard machine. The inlet and exhaust ports have been reshaped and polished with the combustion chambers “gas-flowed” to

improve efficiency. The CBR1000RR SP uses a new “wave” design ignition key; it offers improved security and its compact size greatly reduces the chance of breakage. Also new is the fuel tank cap – it uses an improved breather design for better venting. Instrumentation is a multi-function LCD with a cockpit display dominated by the digital bar-type linear tachometer that scrolls left to right as engine speed increases. Beneath this are the main numerical readouts: gear position, coolant temperature, speedometer, clock/ lap time, trip/fuel efficiency/fuel

consumption and odometer/numerical tachometer. At the bottom of the display are lights for headlight high beam, neutral and indicators. Clear and easy to read in all light conditions, the tachometer has four display modes: Conventional, which uses black LCD segments to show current rpm; Reverse, which employs black LCD segments to show remaining rpm. Peak Hold indicates rpm in the conventional way and also leaves a tell-tale segment showing the peak rpm achieved while Single Segment uses a single block to show current engine speed. In addition the odometer may be switched to display engine rpm numerically. The lap timer features four modes. The display can also show fuel consumption, average fuel efficiency, distance travelled and total elapsed time. To assist debriefing after a session, lap-time recall mode shows the fastest lap time and the lap on which it was set. To ensure gear shifting at the optimum engine rpm, the 5-level shift indicator display uses highly visible white LEDs, adjustable for brightness. They illuminate sequentially as engine rpm rises, finally blinking at a chosen pre-set rpm (default is 13 000 rpm but this can be set between 4 000 rpm and 13 000 rpm). The interval between sequential illumination can also be set at 0,200 or 400 rpm. The Honda CBR1000RR SP is sold Standard with: • Complimentary Rider Training course through the Honda Academy •12 Months Free Roadside Assistance •24 Month unlimited KM warranty Dealer recommended sales price is R189 990

The Dogs took part in an individual Stableford (log) in Kleinmond on 13 May. Half-time Shirley fought a nail-biting duel with one of the Swampland Bandits of the Bot River Wetlands only to be beaten to the draw when he ran out of bullets on the last 6. The Smith Brothers backed him up with some accurate shooting but it wasn’t good enough to see off the intruder. Sheriff van Zyl didn’t quite live up to

Golf roundup with Julian Shaw

This week we had some better weather on the golfing days, so we have a full golf report. Tuesday was the ladies, and this week was the turn of the dreaded medal and putts, a true test of golf. Winning the best gross, no surprise here, was Lynne Behagg with a very well constructed 75. Winning the silver division was Lexa Garbers with a great nett 69, the bronze division victor was Wendy Altona de Klerk who counted in on nett 72, and Charme Southey won the putts with 27 strokes. Well played to all the ladies. Wednesday was an equally beautiful day with 110 players and this week was kindly sponsored by Overberg Asset Management. Our competition was a betterball stableford and we had a spectacular 51 points from Jan Kuhn and Neil Malan. Indeed, Neil had a nett 64, and I am sure the handicapper is eagerly anticipating this card. We had ten two clubs and ball pool paid to 46. Saturday was a challenging day to say the least. The wind got up and the rain came down, but undaunted we had 100 players braving the elements. This week was the Dockerall Cup, which was first played for in 1948, and the format was an individual bogey plus. Coming out tops this week was an old campaigner in the form of Harold Barker with a very good +3. Congratulations Harold. Harold also won on the South Course. Winning on the North Course was an even older campaigner, Johnny Rhodes on +1. It is nice to see Johnny back playing Saturdays. There was just one two club from Terry Westbrook, which took the pot! Ball pool paid to -1. We also had great results from our league teams this week with the Kruger team winning against Bredasdorp 5.5 to 2.5, and our Brodie team won against Arabella 6-2. Well played guys. Don’t forget the Adams demo days this week on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning. All are welcome to come and try some of the most popular equipment there is on the market.

8TH YEAR: FUTURE OF RACE UNCERTAIN

Wheels and Runners

ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN

The eighth annual Wheels and Runners Race took place in Hermanus over the weekend, and over 600 entrants took part in the race.

PROVINSIALE SPORTMANNE EN VROUE VAN HOËRSKOOL HERMANUS: Die volgende leerders van Hoërskool Hermanus is in pro vinsiale en nasionale spanne vir verskillende sportsoorte ingesluit: Agter: Karli Beyers (Boland o.16 muurbal); Nelrine Beyers (Boland o.18 muur bal); Kristen Block (Boland o.18 Bspan hokkie) en Richard Whitelaw (Bo land o.18 Bspan hokkie). Middel: Carmen Lenci (o.16); Mika Engelbrecht (o.18) en Kendra Hudson (o.18) behaal die Boland Streekspan vir hokkie. Voor: Tyron Davidowits (Boland o.17 gholfspan) en Ayron Davidowits (Protea o.20 kushengelspan).

This year’s number of entrants were down from last year. “In 2013 we had a record number of 757 entrants taking part, while this year we had a total of 651,” said local organiser Karin Coetzee. “According to the timekeepers this trend is seen in most races. It seems to be due to the state of the economy and the increase in the petrol price.” This year’s competitors competed at a slower pace than last year. In the 21,1 km race, Johann Lubbe came in first in a time of 1 hour 14 minutes and 14 seconds, followed closely by Tony Williams in 1:14:22. Gerrit Hendricks came in third in a time of 1:16:13. In 2013 this race was won by local hand cyclist, Tiaan Boshoff in a time of 0:47:21, while Johann Lubbe completed last year’s race in a time of

00:48:42. The event attracted quite a number of entrants who came from far and wide to take part in this oneof-a-kind race. According to Coetzee there were runners from Kwazulu-Natal, Springbok, Graaff-Reinet, Oudtshoorn, Mossel Bay, George and Cape Town. New state-of-the-art timekeeping equipment, from the About2Time team, was used for this year’s race. “The group is involved with races across the country and did an excellent job,” said Coetzee. The equipment could track each racer to see how far along the way they are and then recorded their time the moment they crossed the finish line. But the future of the race is somewhat uncertain due to the withdrawal of its main sponsor and the convener stepping down. After eight years of being involved, Coetzee is stepping down as convener, citing personal family reasons for her decision. Checkers has also withdrawn as the main sponsor, said Coetzee “but

they will probably still be involved albeit in a smaller capacity”. The event organisers are in talks with other companies to possibly come on board as sponsors for the race next year. Coetzee confirmed they are looking for a new main sponsor. Besides the challenge of finding a main sponsor, Coetzee also cited finding accommodation for all the wheelchair racers as a major challenge for next year’s race. “There is a shortage of self-catering holiday facilities in Hermanus, but hopefully new developments in the area should fill this void. “We also struggle to find enough marshals to man the course. Many of our marshals did not show up on Saturday and the course was not fully manned.” But Coetzee would like to thank everyone who has been involved in the organisation of the event over the last eight years. “The community has done so much and I am hoping that the race will continue with their support.” To view a video of the day’s events, visit www.hermanustimes.co.za..
