Evacuees accommodated at churches because of fire threat cers, and the mayor herself, went from door to door to Berghof residents to tell them to evacuate. Officers, neighbours, friends and family, ambulance services and staff all helped to alert and evacuate residents of the two retirement villages, who were accommodated at the Dutch Reformed Church in On-
rus (Onrus Manor residents), and the residents of Kidbrooke at the United Church in Hermanus. News of the fire threat was also shared and spread on social media networks. Overstrand Mayor Nicolette Botha-Guthrie visited the control room and fire scenes to evaluate the

Residents of Berghof, Chanteclair and two retirement villages, Onrus Manor and Kidbrooke, had to evacuate in the midnight hours of Thursday 15 January after a fire, that started in Hawston around 15:00 that afternoon, jumped across the road and spread over the mountain. First it spread towards Karwyderskraal and then later in the evening, fuelled by a gusting northwestern, the inferno raged over the mountain to the Onrus side. Flames reportedly shot up as highas30metres,destroyingallthe trees and vegetation in their path. While the helicopter crew was able to water-bomb the flames, they had to stop when the light faded, which saw the ground crews then doing battle. The area was declared a Code Red as the flames, spot fires and thick smoke posed a threat to the lives and homes of these residents. Rudi Fraser, traffic chief, was in charge of the evacuation exercise. Law Enforcement and police offi-
“The decision by all the role players was not taken lightly, and was made to safeguard your health and safety, while the fire department teams do their job. We have also called for back-up from the firefighting teams from Cape Town and they are on the scene,” the mayor explained. “Although this is not the most comfortable night for you, do get to know and love each other, and sharethismoment.Andbeassured, we know we are paraat.” But if it wasn’t for the rain that started falling from 03:00, the mountain fire would have spread towards Hermanus. By 05:00 the fire was under control, leaving a scorched mountain and smouldering patches here and there, and the evacuees could return to their homes by daybreak on Friday. There was no loss of life or damage to property reported, nor were any of the fire fighters injured. The cause of the fire is being investigated.

WATER UIT SKOOL SE SWEMBAD GESKEP: Die helikopter van Stellenbosch Aerodrome is Vrydag en Saterdag gebruik om verskeie brande in die Overstrand te blus. Teen Vrydagmiddag het die helikopter ’n paar keer water uit Curro Hermanus se swembad geskep om die brand, net duskant die skool, te blus. Hennie Mentz, uitvoerende hoof van Curro Hermanus, het foto’s geneem waar die helikopter water uit die skool se swembad skep om die vuur te blus. “Dis nie iets wat ’n mens elke dag sien nie,” sê hy.

Thursday 15 January: At around 15:30 a bush and veld fire was reported to Overstrand Fire, Rescue & Disaster Management east of Hawston High School. The first vehicle arrived on the scene at 15:40. Due to strong winds reaching 46 km/h, the fire jumped the R43 and spread towards the Hawston mountain range. More resources were requested by the initial officer on the scene and four additional firefighting vehicles with 15 crew members and three senior offi cers of Overstrand Fire and Rescue were deployed. Aerial and ground sup port was requested, which consisted of one spotter, one helicopter and a Work ing on Fire ground team consisting of 21 members. Overstrand Law Enforce ment, Traffic and SAPS were also re quested to help with traffic, crowd con trol and other related matters. Due to zero visibility and thick smoke, the helicopter could only start bombing the fire half an hour later. The fire spread towards Karwyderskraal and at 20:15 it was confirmed that the fire had de scended above the crest at Berghof and Chanteclair. Vehicles and firefighters were diverted to these areas to assist. At 22:15 a Code Red was declared to Provincial Government through the Overberg Districts Municipality and ad ditional resources were requested. Three type 1 urban pumpers and one water tanker were received from the City of Cape Town and a samil was re ceived from Overberg District Munici pality.

Blake Albert, general manager of the Windsor Hotel
says they received a phone call from Juan Mostert from ADT at 01:00 on Friday morning requesting assistance. “Although we were running high occupancy with the Stormers inhouse, we still had a few rooms available. At the end of the day we accommodated quite a number of people and
of course we did not charge any of them. It is our role in the community to stand together and not make a profit out of a potentially tragic event such as this. As a token of thanks and to the brave firefighters we have extended an invitation to have breakfast at The Windsor Hotel.”

Dankie vir bekwame hulp van oral oor in ’n tyd van krisis
RAGING FIRE: Dr Wolf Barth from Chanteclair wants to congratulate all the security forces who worked excellently and together. “We heard about the measures in the community hall and that was great. They even had food, not only for the people, but also for dogs and cats. The security forces informed all owners from the houses to be ready to leave the house when the fire was coming close to the houses. We are proud of all the people and are happy to live as Germans in such a town with such a good cooperation.” PHOTO: DR WOLF BARTH
Berghof in first line of fire On Thursday 15 January the Emergency Services of the Overstrand Municipality were put to the test. As residents of Berghof Estate we were in the front line. When the blaze was noted it was on the far side of the mountain. A few hours later it was obvious that it was going to be driven by strong northwesterlies across the crest of the mountain, and the Emergency Services started showing a presence. Fire engines, police vehicles, a tree felling team, and traffic police appearing to know exactly what their roles were. We were warned at about 21:00 that we might need to evacuate, and to prepare to take out essential items and animals. At 23:00 a knock at the door requested us to evacuate. At all times there was no panic, and we realised that mock exercises must have been performed several times in advance to prepare for the real thing. Eventually the wind direction changed, and rain arrived earlier than expected and started dousing the flames. We were able to return to our home shortly. Well done, Overstrand Emergency Services.

Ons is almal maar te lief om te kla, maar daar kom gelukkig ook tye wanneer dit nodig is om dankie te sê en lof uit te deel. My vrou en ek woon in Onrus Manor Aftree-oord. Verlede Donderdagnag, skuins voor middernag, het ons huisfoon gelui en is ons aangesê om so gou as moontlik ons huis te verlaat en by die NG gemeente Onrusrivier byeen te kom. Die inwoners wat nie hul telefone beantwoord het nie, is wakker geklop. Teen daardie tyd was die oordbestuurder, Domma van der Merwe, en ander personeel lankal aan diens en druk besig om te sorg dat die ontruiming so vinnig en glad as moontlik verloop. Van die inwoners het hul bure wat nie oor ’n vervoermiddel beskik nie of hulp nodig gehad het, gehelp. By die kerk aangekom, het die kerk se personeel en ander vrywilligers reeds koffie en tee beskikbaar gehad. Twee van die predikante, drr. Clifford Heys en Wilhelm Burger, het reeds tussen die mense, meestal bejaardes, beweeg om met hulle te gesels en hulle te ondersteun. (Die ander leraar, ds Michiel de Kock was weg met verlof). Overstrand se burgemeester, Nicolette Botha-Guthrie, het in die middel van die nag daar opgedaag om die mense toe te spreek en gerus te stel. Dr. Burger het in Engels en Afrikaans ’n gebed gedoen. Matrasse en beddegoed is in die saal beskikbaar gestel en later was daar borde toebroodjies om die innerlike te versterk. Ons is van tyd tot tyd ingelig oor die stand van sake wat die brand en die veiligheid van ons huise betref. Almal was rustig en het geduldig gewag op die boodskap dat
ons terug kon gaan huis toe. En daar kom die reën, ’n bestiering van bo, en blus byna die hele vuur sodat ons voor dagbreek huis toe kon gaan. Dit is vir almal, veral vir ouer mense, ’n skok om in die middel van die nag aangesê te word om jou huis te ontruim. Mense reageer verskillend op so ’n traumatiese ervaring, maar die gewaarwording wat my die meeste getref het, is die manier waarop diegene wat in beheer was, die omstandighede bestuur het. Die brandweerpersoneel het die situasie deurgaans gemonitor en die moeilike besluit geneem dat die aftree-oord ontruim moes word. Toe die krisis begin het, was die oordpersoneel lankal aan diens. Wat my in besonder opgeval het, is dat die bestuur van die NG gemeente Onrusrivier so paraat was dat hul organisasie in ’n japtrap aan die werk was om huisvesting, drink-en-eetgoed en noodsaaklike basiese geriewe sowel as geestelike bystand aan die bejaardes beskikbaar te stel. Wat ’n voorreg is dit nie om in hierdie tye van laksheid en vrotsige dienslewering deel te wees van ’n gemeenskap wat in ’n krisissituasie so gereed en gewillig is om onmiddellik bystand te verleen aan sy mense. Daar gaan natuurlik enkelinge wees wat oor een of ander iets gaan kla en daar sal inderdaad na ’n paar prosesse gekyk moet word om uit die gebeure te leer. Maar ons as gemeenskap is groot dank en waardering verskuldig aan diegene wat daardie nag so gewillig, bekwaam en hard gewerk het.

Ontruiming van Onrus Manor is goed bestuur JANINE VAN DER RIET Altesaam 42 bejaardes in die siekeboeg en 240 inwoners van Onrus Manor is ontruim. Domma van der Merwe, bestuurder by Onrus Manor, noem Donderdagaand “die lang nag waaroor ek amper ’n boek kan skryf”. Ná die brandweer die bestuur opdrag gegee het om die inwoners in die siekeboeg wakker te maak, het hulle ’n halfuur later opdrag gekry om te ontruim. “Gelukkig het die siekeboeg goed geoefende ontruimingsplanne, so dit het gou gegaan om hulle almal reg te kry om na die NG Kerk in Onrus vervoer te word. EMR en Metro Ambulansdienste was baie vinnig op die toneel, en ons bussie is ook ingespan.” Die heel verswakte inwoners wat bedlêend is, is per ambulans na Mediclinic Hermanus vervoer. Ook hoërisiko-pasiënte is vir rookinaseming en as voorkomende maatreël hospitaal toe vervoer. Van der Merwe sê hul noodbe-
planning is reeds twee jaar gelede deur Bennie Walden, hoof van noodbeplanning, met die NG gemeente in Onrus uitgeklaar. “Die NG Kerk se reaksie was niks minder nie as fenomenaal. Hulle het matrasse, komberse kussings, ens. gehad. Daar was mense wat drinkgoed voorsien het, toebroodjies gemaak het en daar was tot voorsiening gemaak vir die honde.” Marie en Peet van den Berg, inwoners van Onrus Manor vertel hulle het die hele aand die brand dopgehou. “Ons vroumense het buite bymekaar gekom, die manne was meestal binne, en ons het die vuur aanskou, wat al hoe vinniger na ons toe gekom het.” Hierna het hulle ontruim, maar so in die gejaag, het hulle eers na die Hermanus NG Kerk gery. Hul het eers daarna besef hulle moet by die Onrus NG Kerk bymekaarkom. “Domma en personeel was wonderlik. So georganiseerd, daar was nie een oomblik paniek of bekommernis nie.” Van der Merwe is dankbaar teenoor almal wat saamgewerk en gehelp het.
Kidbrooke residents stand together JANINE VAN DER RIET Kidbrooke residents spent the night at the United Church where Rev Dr James Gray played the piano. He says he did this “as music is a source of great calm and peace”. Avis Hartley, chairlady of the residents committee of the care centre at Kidbrooke, added that the evening had been traumatic and left some people stunned, but there were lighter moments too. “When Rev Gray saw me, he jokingly said: ‘I knew I could get you in my church, one way or another.’” Some people lay on matrasses, or stretched out on the pews, while others sat in chairs, but, says Hartley, the love and care from the Kidbrooke staff, carers, sis-

The 200 residents, as well as 28 people staying in the care centre, were evacuated shortly after midnight. Some of the residents went to stay with family, while the rest were taken in private cars and the Kidbrooke bus to the church, said a representative of the care centre management. “We are very proud of everyone for their co-operation. And very thankful to Fire and Rescue, ambulance personnel, the traffic department and law enforcement.” Rev Gray commented that this night brought people together in a time of need. “People discovered their humanity.”
Helpers and friends offered words of support to residents of Kidbrooke who gathered at the United Church, many of whom arrived with their carers and animals and still mostly clad in pyjamas and gowns.

Gemeenskap staan saam JANINE VAN DER RIET
’n Besigheideienaar kan steeds nie glo hoe die gemeenskap met die brand net ingespring en gehelp het nie. Elizma le Roux, eienaar van One Love, The Fashion Shack, in die dorp, en haar twee tieners moes vinnig pak en vlug toe die vlamme Donderdagaand naby hul huis teen die berg in Chanteclair verwoed gebrand het. “Teen 18:00 het ek ’n gevoel begin kry hier kom moontlik ernstige gevaar. Teen 19:00 het ek vyf skilpaaie in die pad sien afstap, ons het hulle opgelaai en aan die onderkant van Chanteclair gaan aflaai.” Terug by die huis het sy die kinders gevra om solank die tuin te begin natspuit terwyl sy belangrike dokumente en die kinders se skoolklere solank in die motor gelaai het. Toe hulle kort hierna deur die brandweer beveel is om die huis te ontruim, het sy besef hulle het dringend hulp (en baie hande) nodig. Le Roux het vinnig op haar profiel op Facebook ’n noodkreet uitbasuin. “We evacuating, please help!” Binne minute was daar hordes mense en almal het items begin uitdra. Sy vertel laggenderwys hoe sy eers haar gunsteling onderklere en ook parfuum gegryp het. “Ander mense het die res van ons klere gepak en ingelaai. “Hierna het ons padgegee. Dit was ’n ervaring duisend. Dat daar nog soveel liefde en omgee oor is in ’n gemeenskap wat saamstaan wanneer die nood opduik.”

Tikka Boys now at La Vierge A year ago Stephen Mandes and Yusuf Sujee (both 26) worked as junior sous chefs at the De Grendel Restaurant with no idea how their lives were going to change in the span of twelve months. Without any expectation Yusuf submitted some recipes to enter the third season of the Pick n Pay sponsored Ultimate Braai Master competition and was surprised to be called for the regional auditions in Cape Town. This random act launched the two friends on a journey of visiting and cooking at twelve locations covering 9 000 km in two months and winning the competition to become South Africa’s youngest Ultimate Braai Master team. They succeeded in passing all the braai tests and tasted victory as the Tikka Boys on 4 December 2014. Having worked at award-winning restaurants including the Cape Grace and the Mount Nelson, the braai master friends had to change their game from five star cuisines to breakfast, lunch and supper – all prepared on South Africa’s national pastime – the braai.
Host of the show, Justin Bonello, reported that the Tikka Boys showed what great things two good friends could achieve around a fire. Unbeknown to the team, Hermanus was part of their new future. In his entry submission Yusuf mentioned Hermanus as his favourite out-of-town destination and both braai masters have visited Hermanus for special holidays, yet never thought that this might become their new permanent home. With R500 000 prize money in their pockets and a new Renault Duster to explore new destinations, they found the Restaurant at La Vierge for sale and took on another challenge – a mere two weeks after their success as Braai Masters. Mandes has since moved to Hermanus with his supportive wife Melissa and can now be found cooking in the kitchen, while Sujee is taking a long-planned holiday before returning to the kitchen. The duo has plans of developing a food and wine-pairing menu complementing the La Vierge wines. Visitors can look forward to a new and interesting menu. – FRIEDA LLOYD

CELEBRATING 33 VINTAGES: The Hamilton Russell Vineyards team celebrated their 33 vintages of pinot noir and chardonnay with a lunch party at Anthony (photo) and Olive Hamilton Russell’s home, Braemar, on the property, on 13 January. In his speech Anthony remarked: “We have a tendency to think that old means staid and new means exciting, but this can be a mistake for wineries, where some of the most original and exciting developments and new practices are coming from producers with a long history and deep experience. The relationship we have with wine is like a friendship. The more we put in the more we get out. And to me the wines most worthy of prolonged friendship are those that tell the story of place at a point in time, not just the story of grape variety.”

vier 60 jaar saam
Die Schirmer-egpaar (86), Wolfgang (bekend as Holler) en Gertrud , is gebore op dieselfde dag, getroud op 22 Januarie 1955, en steeds aan die gang met hul wonderlike Hermanus- en walvisposkaarte. Die egpaar vier vandeesweek hul diamant-huweliksherdenking. Hulle is oud-Namibiërs, het dieselfde skool op Swakopmund bygewoon en daar gewoon en gewerk van 1950 tot 1989. Hulle is ook op dié dorp getroud. Die Schirmers het later besluit dit is tyd om woestynsand vir seesand te verruil en hulle woon al 25 jaar in Hermanus. Hier leef die egpaar hul passie vir fotografie uit deur hul poskaartonderneming, Photo Holler. Gertrud vertel toe hulle destyds hier aangekom het, was daar nie foto’s van walvisse beskikbaar nie en dit is waarop hulle gefokus het. Hulle het ’n leeftyd bestee aan die neem van hierdie ikoniese foto’s van walvisse en mooi uitsigte in Hermanus, en die poskaarte is steeds beskikbaar in verskeie winkels op die dorp. Tussendeur is daar ook gefokus op hul familielewe. Die egpaar het drie kinders – hul seun, Ingo, en twee dogters, Olga en Viola, asook kleinkinders. “Ons was gelukkig in die loopbaan en het ook ’n gelukkige familielewe gedeel.” Namens die familie wil Ingo die volgende boodskap aan hulle oordra: “Ons bedank julle uit ons hart vir jul lewenslange ondersteuning, liefde en toewyding.”
Wolfgang (bekend as Holler) en Gertrud Schirmer op hul troudag, 22 Januarie 1955.

Some other options for concerned parent KOMMENTAAR Welgedaan Eiendom, besittings en menselewens was in gevaar met die brand. ’n Kode Rooi is aangekondig. Inwoners van Onrus moes middernagtelik ontruim. Dis ’n ontstellende situasie en baie van die bejaardes is steeds getraumatiseer oor die gebeure, maar deur dit alles het dit ons ook gewys hoe Overstranders wél kan saamstaan en saamwerk as die nood druk. Brandweer, nooddienspersoneel, verkeer, polisie, helikopter-bemanning, die burgemeester, kerke, skole, ondernemings en inwoners het almal soos een man ingespring en gehelp waar hulp benodig was. Sommige plekke het verblyf aangebied waar ander weer kos en drinkgoed voorsien het. Vriende, bure en vreemdelinge het ingespring om ander se huise te help ontruim. En dan het die reën natuurlik om 03:00 Vrydagoggend tot ons finale redding gekom. ’n Mens kan seker vra: “Wat as?” Wat as dit nie gereën het nie? Maar hoe dit ook al sy, die reën, wat gekom het asof dit gestuur was, het ’n situasie help red waar daar seker baie erger nagevolge kon gewees het. So, aan elke Overstrander, klop jouself op die skouer, want danksy julle wat oral ingespring het en eenvoudig net nie moed opgegee het nie, is bewys dat ons as gemeenskap waarlik kan saamstaan. Dankie ook aan ieder en elk wat foto’s, nuus en briewe vir ons gestuur het. ’n Groot jammerte dat ons nie al die bydraes dié week kan plaas nie.
Hermanus ‘just did it’ again with open hearts The Boxing Day 2014 collection and distribution of food was again a huge success. There were generous gifts of money and food from churches and private homes, fruit from Fruit and Veg, and discounted whole chickens from Gateway Spar. Churches gave directly to needy families in their areas and a team distributed food to eight churches in Zwelihle and from there pastors personally took food to the homes of those in need. Many, many gave thanks and feasted on the wonderful Christmas fare. Hermanus “just did it” again.

Thank you to all the good people I would so like to thank all the relevant people who helped Sparklekids over the last four years. A total of 28 young people from Zwelihle, Grabouw, Hawston etc. are this year studying at tertiary institutions, thanks to people who believe in this initiative. Each and everyone of the students that we are involved with have passed nicely and are committed to breaking out of poverty towards self support through hard work. (We will know in the next few days whether four more have been accepted.) All of them are studying courses such as education, engineering and nursing, which will give them a good chance for employment. The two young students of 2013 became the ten of 2014 and are now the twenty-eight of 2015. Gratitude from the heart to each and everyone who helped this incredible journey along. For more information, contact Theo on 082 654 4924 or visit www.sparklekids.co.za.

Wonderful birdlife with water feeder bottles With reference to the letter in last week’s issue, “Is Banting for the birds?” In 2006 we saw these bottles for the first time at the Hospice Care Centre in Humansdorp. Godfried Potgieter started them to keep the patients busy – doing something while earning some money as well. We bought a bottle and also got talking to Pottie. My husband and Pottie started perfecting these Sunbird Water Feeder bottles. Since then a lovely piece of art with wire, tomato sauce bottle (All Gold), extended tops, were made by them. When Grootbos had the big veld fires a couple of years ago, we were contacted to supply waterbottles as the birds had no way of getting any water. Birds that make use of the water feeder bottles are the Cape sugar birds (male with long tail) that arrive in our gardens by the end of August and stay until middle February in the Hermanus and Overberg areas. Here they have their young ones, and teach them the life skills that birds need. This is the scene with talking, fighting around the water bottles and banting.
When the youngsters are ready, they all take to the veld where they come from. Our little sunbirds are the ones that really enjoy the water feeders. They have long beaks like the Cape sugar birds. The weavers have a ball with the water – but, with the extension fitted to the top, their beaks are too short. They will sip the drops dripping from the tops. The white eyes enjoy the same. We have never seen wagtails drinking from the bottles. Again, their beaks are too short. But give them a little cheese and you will have a visitor for life. The mossies just sit and watch the world go by. The instructions supplied in the bottle are there for a reason. Follow them, with not too much sugar, sit back and enjoy our wonderful birdlife in Hermanus. PS. We had a visit from a pea-hen (pouwyfie) on Sunday; she never stopped eating, then had a short rest and took to the road again. Now and then two Egyptian geese will also come around to ask for a slice of bread and clean up all the wild bird seeds.

Baboons shot and captured near Stanford On Saturday 10 January a mature lactating female baboon was found trapped in the Stanford area. Nearby were the remains of a further five baboons. All had been shot. On close inspection the one skeleton proved to be that of a juvenile which had been shot in the body area with a shotgun, broken ribs and shot pellets testified to this. Also, the animal must have suffered until eventually succumbing as it was found perched on a tree stump which it must have crawled to before dying. The caged female baboon showed signs of having been in the cage for many hours, through the heat of the day, in the full sun. The cage was a drop-door of the type farmers use to catch porcupines. Without a doubt the farmer would have shot her when he eventually checked his trap. Law enforcement was called in after numerous unsuccessful attempts to get help to release her, including calls the Hermanus CapeNature (closed for the weekend and no-one on standby). But a call to Toitjie of law enforcement saw two officers on the scene within 20 minutes. When the officers released the baboon it was discovered that there was a baby hiding in the bushes nearby because when the baboon ran off, she turned, ran back and scooped up a baby from under a bush. With the baby clinging
to her, she ran for the trees and mountains. Apparently the case and photos have been turned over to CapeNature for investigation. If baboons are a problem for wine/fruit farmers in the area, surely they can hire someone to patrol, like the Voëlklip baboon monitors do, to keep baboons away during the critical time before harvest. Baboons are seldom seen in the Stanford area and one wonders just how many are left and how many have already been killed. If the farmer has a permit to cull, then why is he indiscriminately trapping and killing the baboons? There is no excuse for cruelty to animals, whatever the reason, there is always a kinder method of dealing with a problem.
CONCERNED ANIMAL LOVER STANFORD
Justin Lawrence, public relations officer for CapeNature, responds: CapeNature is currently investigating the incident to build up concrete evidence for a case. People taking the law into their own hands and indiscriminately shooting baboons will always be of concern to CapeNature. It remains illegal to do so, whether or not there are baboon monitors. We encourage communities to report illegal baboon feeding by members of the public to CapeNature or the Overstrand Municipality.
Re: letter “Something must be done about the bullying at school” HT/15 Jan. I feel that the letter is a misrepresentation of Curro school and its leadership. We, as parents, should protect, nurture and teach our kids to our utmost ability. We trust that teachers take their responsibility and duty seriously, which they are legally bound to and get paid for. This is where Unhappy Parent has to show the same trust and responsibility toward her children’s teachers involved. My son was involved in an unfortunate incident, being a ‘newbie’ at school. I was outraged when I finally dragged information about the incident out of him. I made an appointment with Mr Mentz. He phoned me back and asked if he could handle it without my involvement. I can happily report that Curro Hermanus has the best team effort and success rate for listening to kids, handling kids and restoring their self-esteem. Unhappy Parent, I want to ask that you maybe reconsider the course of action your concerns about your kids are on. My opinion is if you take your kids to another school, maybe the vicious circle of them being ‘different’ will just be continued. Will you please consider talking to your kids, trying to involve them in finding solutions for them to empower themselves? Will you please communicate with the teachers involved, until they understand your concerns, the facts of what’s happening and the kids/ culprits involved? Will you consider making an appointment with a professional psychologist, to listen to your kids about concerns they maybe don’t share with you? Will you please contact the parent class-representative and have a conversation with her? Will you please contact the phase-head (’fasehoof) (Gr R or foundation phase) of Curro school to have a conversation with him/her? Will you please consider making an appointment with the principal to voice your concerns? Dear Unhappy Parent, please consider your kids’ happiness, they need guidance and practical advice on how to cope in this confused world of ours, exactly what my two kids currently receive in abundance from Curro school and their leadership!
MARIETJIE VENTER
Curro unfairly tainted It is with sadness that I read the letter of a parent lambasting Curro Hermanus unfairly. Firstly, Curro is not a “posh” school (Somerset College is a posh school), it is a private school and a good one at that. Secondly, you do not pay for perfection as there is no such thing in a school, you pay for a great education, excellent curriculum, superior facilities, small classes, good discipline and Christian ethos, etc. Bullying is found everywhere and I am sorry your child had to suffer. We recently met a couple who removed their two children from the public school due to bullying and teasing. Curro takes such matters very seriously and the parents of the offender are called in for joint disciplinary action and monitoring. Unfortunately it sometimes takes time to work through. There is adequate supervision but no teacher can have eyes on every single child at all times and bullies in all schools know that. Trying to create a hype by drawing in the so-called “other” children leaving the school because of bullying is unsubstantiated, the exaggeration and timing of publishing is noted. Children leave for various reasons (very seldom), often financial. Amongst Mr Mentz’s many qualities, the fact that he loves the children, stands out above all. Curro is a healthy school with good growth every year. The saying seems to be true, that the highest trees get the most wind. I hope this matter will be closed now. Letter shortened - Ed.

Today (18 January) on a hike up to beacon on Rotsberg we encountered a large troop of baboons. In all the years walking on the mountain the baboons allowed us to walk right up to them as evident from photos, completely unperturbed. The numbers of young seem to have multiplied over the years. Baboon monitors low down in Voëlklip looked helpless. From the number of baboons around and over the house at the top of 10th Avenue this year it is evident that numbers have multiplied out of control, let alone the effectiveness of monitors to control them. Surely in this 21st century a more scientific approach with electronic tagging monitoring their move-
Leon Steyn, Environmental Specialist, Overstrand Municipality answers: The Overstrand Municipality’s last baboon count this week stands on 30 baboons, part of the Fernkloof troop. For the past five years, the number never exceeded 33. The Hamilton Russell troop is
around 57, but they are scared and never come to town. The Vogelgat troop consists of 30 baboons, but they are also scared and have not been seen close to town for the past three months. The Fernkloof leader lost two female baboons in a short period and is now protecting the remaining troop and babies against people who want to harm them. The male leader of this troop recently chased two residents in Voëlklip, one wetting him with a hosepipe and the other screamed at him, which caused a negative reaction. If you see a baboon, do not shout at him, do not stare at him and do not show your teeth. Phone the baboon monitors on 028 313 8111.

Overstrand nie so ‘bloody warm’ Bloedig warm! Dit was al waaroor mense Dinsdag byna reg oor die land kon praat, maar soos dikwels gebeur moes mens op Hermanus maar eers rondkyk as iemand vra of jy só warm kry dat jy spreekwoordelik wil vergaan. Toe die kwik Dinsdagmiddag kort ná drie tussen Stellenbosch en die Weskus rondom 33 en 37 °C gespeel het, was dit in Hermanus op straat ’n leefbare 29 en nie eintlik op sy “bloedigste” nie. Nou wil een leser weet wat is bloedig warm en wanneer word die uitdrukking gebruik? Nee kyk, sê Hennie de Beer van Voëlklip toe ek bel, dit is net ’n Overstrander wat so ’n dom vraag kan vra. As jy iewers in die Noordkaap woon of sommer hier anderkant Carnavon, sal jy weet wat die woord beteken. Die antwoord is seker; bloedig is so drie of vier grade bokant baie warm, sê hy. Dit is wanneer die son jou neus velaf brand as jy gou ’n paar tamaties gaan pluk, sê Ans sy vrou, eenkant in die saampraat foon en reken die taalmense weet ook nie. Een ou het gesê die uitdrukking is ’n direkte vertaling van “bloody warm”. En siedaar, in al die tale lyk dit vir haar soos ’n kragwoord. Dit is wat Weerhaan Dinsdag op Stellenbosch ondervind het toe hy in sy motor klim en aan die stuurwiel vat. Toe het die woord eina ook ’n lelike geword. Dinsdag se hitte word verkeerdelik as komende van
die suidoostewind beskryf, maar dit is nie die gewone westewind nie, wat by Mosselbaai draai nadat hy ’n bietjie hitte ingelaai het nie. Hierdie meneer kom duisende myle ver van die Indiese hoogdruk af wat die afgelope tyd wegholbrande en storms aan daardie kant van die wêreld saai. En soos dit nou lyk, kry die suidpunt van die land dit die naweek weer “hot” agter met temperature wat op plekke soos Worcester, Beaufort-Wes, Malmesbury en Riversdal en Oudtshoorn na die veertigs toe mik. Die Overstrand sal weer rondom 28-30 °C speel en mens kan nie sê geniet nie. Weerhaan se berekening is egter gegrond op satelietlesings vanuit die noordelike halfrond en is die uiterstes. Die suidelike lesings wys eenvoudig geen swaai in die huidige patroon nie. Die fyn verskil is dat die erge warm lugstroom nét kuslangs beweeg. Gister (Woensdag) het ons toring op Hermanusberg gesê die windspoed en rigting bly konstant, maar die hoogdruk (1013 hP) ruk hand uit.

Wenke hoe om items te verkoop 4 Royal Street Hermanus Tel: 028 - 312 3114
Maak seker jy weet wat jy het voordat jy items soos waardevolle juweliersware en ou muntstukke wil verkoop. Die internet is nie altyd die regte plek om te begin soek na items se pryse nie, aangesien enigiemand enige prys kan vra. Die groot vraag is egter of hulle die items verkoop kry teen daardie prys. Maak seker die persoon of maatskappy aan wie jy jou items verkoop, is gelisensi-
eerd. Daar is sekere standaarde wat in jou guns tel indien die persoon ’n lisensie het. Moenie sommer enige persoon vertrou met die wete dat jy duur items in jou huis het nie.

13 FINMONITOR: Olie – ’n onbekende speelveld vir 2015 HermanusTimes
Sakegids Business Guide
Die prys van brent ru-olie het sedert die middel van laasjaar met ongeveer 56% gedaal tot die huidige vlakke van tussen $45 en $50 per vat. Teen ’n prys van bo $100 per vat het baie kommentators gemeen olie is aan die duur kant, maar min het só ’n drastiese daling verwag. Vir die meeste van ons bring die gevolglike verlaging in brandstofpryse groot verligting, maar die laer olieprys het ook verreikende gevolge vir die Suid-Afrikaanse en wêreld-ekonomie. Amerika het oor die afgelope jaar of twee verrys as ’n belangrike rolspeler in die wêreldwye produksie van olie. Sy produksie van olie uit skalie veroorsaak dat hy bykans selfversorgend is in sy verbruik van energie. Volgens die American Enterprise Institute vervaardig Amerika nou 87% van sy energieverbruik self, die hoogste in amper twee dekades. Gevolglik het ’n stryd om dominansie tussen Amerika en die tradisionele olieproduserende lande ontwikkel. Op ’n onlangse vergadering het Opec (Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) teen ’n verlaging in produksie besluit ten spyte van ’n oormaat aanbod. Terselfdertyd beleef ons wêreldwyd ’n verlangsaming in ekonomiese groei wat tot laer energieverbruik en ’n laer vraag na olie lei. Een van die grondbeginsels in ekonomie is dat hoër aanbod en laer vraag tot ’n daling in prys sal lei. Verder het paniek nou ook ingetree, terwyl spekulante poog om te baat uit die wisselvalligheid van die olieprys. Vir die Suid-Afrikaanse ekonomie beteken ’n laer olieprys ’n laer inflasiekoers. Vervoer dra ’n betekenisvolle gewig van 16,4% in ons

inflasiemandjie. Die inflasiekoers vir vervoer het in slegs ses maande van 8,9% in Mei 2014 tot die nuutste 4,2% in November 2014 gedaal. En ons kan verwag dat dit verder kan daal ná nog ’n noemenswaardige verlaging in die petrolprys in Januarie 2015. Die gevolg was dat die algehele koers vir verbruikersprysinflasie (VPI) weer teruggesak het tot binne die Reserwebank se teikenband van 3% tot 6%. Aangesien vervoerkoste so ’n belangrike rol speel in die produksiekoste van talle Suid-Afrikaanse nywerhede, het die verlaging in die olieprys ook ’n belangrike tweede ronde invloed op inflasie. ’n Voorbeeld hiervan is voedselpryse. Alhoewel voedselpryse nie noodwendig sal daal as gevolg van die laer olieprys nie, kan die koers waarteen dit styg heel moontlik verder verlangsaam. Teen hierdie agtergrond sal die Reserwebank minder rede vind om rentekoerse te verhoog, wat uiteraard positief vir verbruikers sal wees. Die besparing op petrol gee verbruikers ’n paar ekstra rand in die sak om te bestee aan ander goedere en dienste en sal verbruikersentiment ook ’n bietjie verbeter. Verbeterde sentiment speel ’n belangrike rol om verbruiksbesteding te stimuleer. Ons meen hierdie faktore kan ’n positiewe uitwerking hê op veral kontant kleinhandelaars. Ons verwag ook dat kleinhandelaars kan baat vind by ’n herstel in marges soos wat die druk op voedselpryse verlaag. Ook in Amerika word verwag dat verbruiksbesteding ’n hupstoot sal kry in 2015 as gevolg van die laer olieprys.
Die Wall Street Journal berig ekonome beraamdie laeroliepryskanvergelykwordmet ’n verlaging in belasting van tussen $100 miljard en $125 miljard vir Amerikaanse huishoudings. Aangesien verbruiksbesteding ’n groot deel van ekonomiese groei uitmaak, kan die laer olieprys help om dit ’n hupstoot te gee. In teenstelling met die positiewe uitwerking op verbruiksbesteding, sal energie-produsente swaarkry terwyl die olieprys onder soveel druk verkeer. Die JSE-genoteerde maatskappy wat die volle uitwerkende van ’n laer olieprys voel, is Sasol. Die aandeelprys van hierdie maatskappy word in ’n groot mate beïnvloed deur twee makro-faktore, naamlik die olieprys en die rand-dollar-wisselkoers. Ná die skerp dalling in die aandeelprys wonder baie beleggers: wat nou? Uiteraard sal die swakker olieprys ’n wesenlike negatiewe impak op Sasol se verdienste hê wanneer die resultate vir die halfjaar geëindig 31 Desember 2014 vroeg in Maart 2015 bekendgemaak word. ’n Laer dividend is ook in die vooruitsig. Ons meen egter dit sal raadsaam wees om ’n langer termyn siening oor die olieprys te neem en nie benoud te raak oor die huidige prysvlakke nie. Ná ons mening is die laer olieprys alreeds grootliks in Sasol se aandeelprys ingewerk en maak dit nie sin om van die aandeel ontslae te raak in ’n tyd wanneer paniek ingetree het nie. Daar is waarskynlik ’n geleentheid vir geduldige beleggers om munt te slaan uit die slagting van Sasol. Dit bly steeds ’n hoëgehalte-maatskappy met uitstekende tegnologie
Barley farming encouraged in Caledon South African Breweries (SAB) recently introduced their Better Barley Better Beer programme to invited media in Caledon. The programme encourages and supports sustainable farming practices among South Africa’s barley farmers by focusing on water usage reduction, improved carbon footprints, soil health and clearing of alien vegetation, as well as the protection and restoration of ecosystems. “Better Barley Better Beer (BBBB), in partnership with the World Wildlife Fund for Nature of South Africa (WWF-SA), is in its pilot phase in the dry land area of the Southern Cape and in the irrigated barley areas in the Northern Cape, and will run for about two years,” said Jan Coetzee, the project extension officer. The programme involves a total of 26 barley producers – 15 in the dry land area and 11 in irrigation, who have either voluntarily opted to participate or hold important conservation assets on their properties. These assets include endangered veld, important water catchment areas and critical species. Through structured engagement and advisory support, BBBB is aimed at empowering barley farmers to understand and implement sustainable farming practices. The programme is an important element of SAB’s global sustainable development framework called Prosper. Prosper highlights tangible targets to be achieved by SAB over the next five years in the areas of responsible alcohol consumption, securing water resources, reducing waste and carbon emissions, supporting small enterprises, including emerging farmers, and the support of responsible and sustainable land use for brewing crops. Farmers with critical conservation assets will be supported in engaging in biodiversity stewardship to protect and restore ecosystems. The stewardship concept is a new way of achieving conservation protection by creating positive, proactive partnerships with private landowners and conservation bodies such as WWF-SA. SAB intends for the BBBB key metrics to be systematised into accepted industry standards, much like the Barley Passport it introduced in 2005. The Barley Passport contains detailed information on chemicals applied on the produce and only that which is registered
The three producers who are part of the pilot programme are from left MG Lotter, owner of Klipfontein, Jan Coetzee, project extension officer of South African Breweries, Richard Kriger, owner of Boontjieskraal and Josias le Roux, owner of Langhoogte.

will be purchased by SAB. BBBB allows SAB to build on its strategic business objective to help grow the local barley industry and secure its future growth and sustainability. This is in line with South Africa’s strategic plan for sustainable agriculture and the Department of Agriculture’s policy for sustainable development. Through BBBB and other sustainable agriculture initiatives, including the construction of a multi-million rand SAB Maltings plant in Johannesburg and its Go Farming programme, which is geared at establishing and supporting emerging farmers, SAB intends to source more than 90% of its barley requirements from local producers. “Having a fully-fledged and sustainable local barley sector means SAB can rely on contracts with local producers for approximately 93% of its brewing requirements, enabling us to hedge against volatile global commodity markets and, just as importantly, to keep tighter control of quality and ensure a sustainable barley growing sector,” says Thinus van Schoor, general manager
SAB Maltings. Historically, SAB has played a pioneering role in the South African barley industry. It began growing barley locally more than three decades ago, a strategic attempt by the company to become self-sufficient. Since those early days, SAB’s support for the local barley industry has strengthened considerably and the company is today regarded as a critical role player. The strategic industry partnerships it has developed, as well as its close working relationship with producers, is what has helped to yield successes and drive further sustainable growth. “Our collaborative approach within the agricultural sector has proven to be the most effective method in creating sustainable growth, which is a key objective of any SAB investment. The existing knowledge and skills within the industry are invaluable to success,” says Van Schoor. About 160 000 tons of barley are currently grown in the Southern Cape and a further 55 000 t (64 000 t in 2013 and expanding to 94 000 tons in 2014) are produced in the irrigation areas of the Northern Cape. SAB helped establish South Africa’s barley growing sector in the 1970s. The next phase of the BBBB pilot will be the roll-out of specific guidelines to small scale and emerging farmers in the Taung area. These guidelines will be tailored to focus on training the farmers rather than auditing them.

NATURE MATTERS: Did you know ...Spider wasps (family Pompilidae) are wasps that hunt spiders to feed their offspring. The female’s toxic sting paralyses the spider, which she then drags to her nest. There she lays a single egg on the paralysed spider (which stays fresh since it’s still alive). The egg hatches into a larva, which slowly consumes the protein-rich spider. The larva then pupates and eventually hatches as an adult wasp. Adult spider wasps eat pollen.

IN MEMORY OF WHERE IT ALL BEGAN:LIMITED EDITION LAUNCHED THIS YEAR
Land Rover launches a year of Defender celebrations QUICKPIC
Land Rover has gone back to the place where it all began to start a year-long celebration of the iconic Defender. A unique 1 km sand drawing at Red Wharf Bay in Anglesey, UK, marks the launch of two exclusive limited edition models and the beginning of an exciting new chapter in the Defender story. As UK production of the current Defender enters its final phase, Land Rover will use 2015 to celebrate its global automotive icon. Land Rover vehicle line director, Nick Rogers explains the significance of recreating one of the world’s most iconic vehicles: “Passion and enthusiasm surround everything we do with Defender, and that will never change. With a history stretching back 68 years, this is a Land Rover that has thrived for decades on its unquestionable capability and iconic shape. I am now lucky enough to be one of the many enthusiasts at Land Rover committed to creating a fitting successor to the legendary Defender.” To mark the announcement Land Rover has created the largest sand drawing ever produced in the UK. A Defender outline measuring a staggering 1 km across was drawn on the beach at Red Wharf Bay in Anglesey using a fleet of six Land Rovers. The unique image is a tribute to the moment in 1947 when the engineering director of Rover, Maurice Wilks, first sketched the shape for the original Land Rover in the sand of Red Wharf Bay and proposed the idea to his brother
The Heritage and Adventure are all powered by Land Rover’s proven 2.2-litre diesel engine and will go on sale locally in Q4 2015, in limited numbers. PHOTO: QUICKPIC Spencer, Rover’s managing director. “My father met his brother on the beach at Red Wharf Bay and made a drawing in the sand of how he thought the Land Rover could be made,” said Stephen Wilks, son of Maurice. “That was the start of it all, the conception of Land Rover.” The Wilks family owned land on the Welsh island and Maurice wanted a versatile vehicle that could double as a light tractor and offroader. His forward-thinking design was christened the ‘Land Rover’, the outline of which we now rec-
tion Wagon. The immaculate Series II once belonged to the Wilks family and in memory of the moment originally enacted by their fathers, cousins Stephen and Nick Wilks, the sons of Maurice and Spencer Wilks respectively, were on hand to take part. They helped to draw the continuous 4,52 km line – the length of 1 118 Defender 90 Station Wagons – into the sand with just minutes to spare before it was erased by the incoming tide. The event witnessed the debut of the Defender Celebration Series; two exciting new limited edition
ognise as the Defender. Creating the giant piece of temporary artwork at Red Wharf Bay required a fleet of six Land Rovers, each towing a 3,6 m agricultural harrow to draw the unmistakable outline of the Defender in the sand. The vehicles chosen for the race against the Anglesey tides chart the evolution of the Defender from its introduction in 1948 to the present day. A Land Rover Series I, II and III were joined on the beach by a Ninety from the eighties, a Defender 90 Hard Top, and a Defender 110 Sta-

models which each celebrate a different element of Defender’s unique history. The Heritage and Adventure are all powered by Land Rover’s proven 2.2-litre diesel engine and will go on sale locally in Q4 2015, in limited numbers. Land Rover is also investigating the possibility of maintaining production of the current Defender at an overseas production facility, after the close of UK manufacturing. Any continuation would see low volume production maintained for selected fleets and special vehicle applications for sale outside the EU. Limited Edition Defenders The Heritage Edition is inspired by early Land Rover models and mixes nostalgic design cues with modern creature comforts. It is identified by distinctive Grasmere Green paintwork and a contrasting white roof. A heritage grille and HUE 166 graphics, recalling the registration plate of the first ever preproduction Land Rover nicknamed ‘Huey’, also identify the Heritage model. The exciting new Adventure Edition is aimed at Land Rover customers who relish the great outdoors and embrace the Defender’s ‘go anywhere, do anything’ attitude. It comes fitted with additional underbody protection and Goodyear MT/ R tyres to boost the Defender’s already class-leading all-terrain capability. Unique decals and a leather-trimmed cabin ensure the Adventure Edition stands out from the Defender crowd. In total more than 200 of these limited edition Defenders are destined for South African shores. Pricing will be confirmed closer to launch.

Hulle het pas ’n groot voorraad wol van Irma van Heerden van Bernina, Hermanus, ontvang.

Matrone Nikki Bouwer het die sakke vol teddiebere ontvang en later die dag aan die kinders gaan uitdeel. Mense wat graag by die projek betrokke wil raak, kan Snyman bel by 028 316 3950 of 083 450 4507.
Solidariteit Helpende Hand se Hermanustak het Vrydag twee groot sakke vol teddiebere aan die Hermanus Provinsiale Hospitaal oorhandig.

Golf roundup DOGS play in rather difficult conditions with Julian Shaw We have again had some beautiful weather, so lots of golf was being played. We did though have a quick 21 mm of very welcome rain last week, which has turned the course into a bright green paradise. This rain and wind did however coincide with our ladies golf day so we have no ladies results this week. Men’s Day: Wednesday saw 150 gents teeing up in a better ball stableford format. Coming out on top on the East course were the successful pairing of André Gouws and John Clifford on a huge 47 points. Winning the South course on a respectable 48 points were Hennie Smit and John van der Plas (the lessons with Terry Westbrook are obviously paying off nicely), and showing everyone how to play this game on 51 points on the North course were the pairing of Faan Pretorius and again our secret weapon Reinhard Buhr. There were nine 2 clubs and the ball pool paid to 44. The best players of the day, both on a nett 65, were Faan Pretorius and Brian Cain, whom I still maintain has the best practice swing in the club. Saturday: We had absolutely fantastic weather and a field of 175 golfers played an alliance competition which is always relaxing. Winning the East course on +22 were Peter Sulley, Brian Ridley, Rein Kelder and Johann Krog. Taking top honours on the North course were Jan Mulder, Gerhard Visage, Halfee Maree and Guri Visage on a super +19, and leading the scoring on the South course with a massive +23 was the regular four-ball of Rob George, Brad George, Peter Cawdry and Paul the “club fiddler” Vorster. Well played guys. Thanks to my four-ball, we managed a second placing on the North course and good to see the ladies also featuring on the leader board, achieving a second place on the South course. Don Slade again shot below his age with a gross 78. I think he is getting younger... Best play of the day: The ever quiet John Reynell on a nett 65. Thanks to our greens staff for a super course and until next week keep calm and go golfing.
Kleinmond - Individual Stableford (Log) / 4BBB: Conditions were difficult on Tuesday as a pumping Southeaster destroyed a large field who think that golf is tough enough already without interference from the elements and therefore should be played indoors. On occasions like this, cream normally rises to the surface, but there are exceptions to every rule and “Dogsbody” scraped in by a point with an average round by playing slightly less bad golf than usual. “Hanging Judge Robinson” perverted the course of justice by bribing two guests to score less than him, but he was beaten by the “Jolly Green Giant”, thus proving that size does matter. The “Dachshund’s Friend” has

At the Ayala prizegiving were, from left: Mark Gibbs (Personal Trust), Ben Butler (tournament secretary), K Barnard, Tikkie Rossouw, Roy Gallaway and Philip Graham.
Tight finish at 88th Ayala Some of the teams have been competing in the tournament for more than 26 years, and this year it was Peter Quinn’s team from
Caledon who took top honours, with Kleinmond coming in as the runners-up. The Hermanus team, skipped by Riaan Pienaar, came in third, with only one point separating them from Kleinmond. Mark Gibbs from Personal Trust, who will sponsor the tournament again next year, handed out the prizes and trophies. He
praised the Hermanus Bowling Club for the well-organised tournament. Blackie de Swardt, president of the Hermanus Bowling Club, thanked everyone involved, with a special pat on the back going to Jan van Niekerk and his helpers in the bar, who quenched the thirst of the 200 or so hot and sweaty players.

Philip Coetzee (met die geel-en-swart hemp) sê sy opponent die stryd aan.
Skaakspelers blink uit by SA’s JAN-HENDRIK COETZER Drie jong skaakspelers het onlangs baie goed gevaar by die SA Jeugkampioenskappe in Kimberley. Hulle is Annette van Wyk (o. 16), Charl van Wyk (o. 12) en Philip Coetzee (o. 14). Al drie van hulle kry afrigting by die Hermanus-skaakklub wat geborg word deur cashkows.com. Die speler wat veral uitstaan, is Coetzee wat vier uit sewe wedstryde gewen het. “Dit is regtig uitstekend as mens in ag neem hierdie kinders het teen van die beste in SA meegeding het”, sê Marius van der Westhuizen, afrigter by die klub. Van der Westhuizen en Kathleen Botha, albei afrigters by die klub, het ook onlangs kursusse
voltooi wat nou van hulle gekwalifiseerde afrigters maak. Volgens Van der Westhuizen moedig hulle kinders aan om deel te raak van die klub aangesien skaak soveel voordele vir kinders inhou. “Die program wat ons nou aanbied, is juis vir kinders van graad 1-3. Dis baie interaktief asook baie pret. “Die program fokus nie net op skaak nie, maar ook onderrig wat fokus op basiese beginsels van wiskunde en wetenskap. Deur skaak te speel leer hulle baie van hierdie beginsels.” )Mense wat belangstel of meer oor die Hermanus-skaakklub wil uitvind, kan 082 416 8714 of 072 065 1016 skakel, of ’n e-pos stuur aan chess.hermanus@gmail.com.

Stormers spanbou SEE-EN-SAND HELP MET SPANBOU: Deel van die Stormers se vierdag oefenprogram in Hermanus het ook bestaan uit spanbousessies, waaronder ’n besoek aan die See-en-Sand Instituut. Volgens Henk Esterhuysen (in duikpak) was die Stormers baie gewillig om iets nuuts te probeer. “Alhoewel die sessie slegs ’n uur lank was, het ons heelwat vermag. Drie van die spelers kan byvoorbeeld nie swem nie en het elkeen van hulle by ’n rots afgespring. Ek het hulle vertel van die gevare van die see en hoe jy ’n baie beter kans staan as jy as ’n span saamwerk. Ek was regtig baie beïndruk met die ouens. Hulle was plat op die aarde en baie gewillig.” Om dissipline toe te pas moes die span in ’n peleton staan terwyl hulle opdragte ontvang, totdat hulle gevra is om te verdaag.

Vermeulen praat oor kapteinskap JAN-HENDRIK COETZER Stormers-agtsteman en Springbok-ster, Duane Vermeulen, aangewys as kaptein van die DHL Stormers vir vanjaar se Vodacom Superrugbyseisoen, sê hy besef “daar is groot skoene wat gevul moet word, maar dit is ’n geweldige voorreg om die span te kan lei en ek wil regtig ’n voorbeeld wees vir die res van die spelers.” Die aankondiging van sy kapteinskap, en dié van die span se onderkaptein, Juan de Jongh, is gemaak by ’n perskonferensie verlede Vrydag by Hermanus Laerskool se klub-
huis. Vermeulen het gesê dit is vir hom belangrik om koelkop te bly onder druk en goed berekende besluite te neem. “Dan is my ander fokus natuurlik om te wen – so eenvoudig soos dit!” “Wat ons spel betref sal ons moet kyk na omgekeerde balbesit en hoe om dit beter te benut. Ons moet ook minder besit wegskop.” Vermeulen (28) het reeds 78 keer vir die Stormers en 29 keer vir die Springbokke uitgedraf, met De Jongh (26) wat sedert 2010 al 69 keer vir die Stomers en WP op die veld verskyn het. Volgens afrigter, Allister Coetzee, is beide Vermeulen en De Jongh
sleutelspelers en ken hulle veral die kultuur van die span baie goed. “Die span bevat hierdie jaar baie jong spelers met Vermeulen en De Jongh wat ook relatief jonk is, maar ek glo hulle is die regte manne om nou hierdie span vorentoe te vat in die afwesigheid van Jean de Villiers. Vermeulen is ’n ongelooflike professionele speler en baie vasberade. De Jongh het weer baie energie en adrenalien en die res van die spelers hou daarvan.” Coetzee sê hul besoek aan Hermanus, die vyfde agtereenvolgende jaar, is altyd iets om na uit te sien. “Hermanus bied baie goeie fasiliteite en die laerskool se veld is ’n lief-
like oefenveld. Die weer is altyd goed en die mense vriendelik.” Volgens Coetzee sien hulle nou uit na die volgende fase. “Ons is redelik ver met ons tegniese en taktiese voorbereiding en gaan ons terselfdertyd baie op die losgemaal fokus.” )Die DHL Stormers open hulle Vodacom Superrugbyseisoen op Saterdag 14 Februarie teen die Bulls in Pretoria. Hulle eerste tuiswedstryd is Saterdag 21 Februarie teen die Blues. Drie vriendskaplike wedstryde word gespeel voor die Superrugbytoernooi. Die span speel SWD op 24 Januarie, Cheetahs op 30 Januarie en Boland Kavaliers op 7 Februarie.
Duane Vermeulen voer ’n mediaonderhoud ná sy aanwysing as die Stormers se nuwe kaptein.
