Onwettige padresies bly kopseer Onwettige padresies vind nog dikwels plaas op plaaslike paaie in die middernagtelike ure. FOTO: LISE BEYERS

MARYKE SWART Inwoners van Drakenstein kla al jare lank oor onwettige padresies wat veral oor naweke dié gebied soos die Killarneyrenbaan laat klink. Ten spyte van wetstoepassing en die plaaslike polisie se pogings om die onwettige bedrywighede oor naweke te stuit, blyk dit ’n kopseer te wees waarvoor daar nie vinnig ’n oplossing gevind gaan word nie. Ná nog klagtes ontvang is, het Paarl Post besluit om op Facebook sy lesers te vra wat hulle dink.

Hier is ’n paar van hul menings: Anees Carolissen meen sterfgevalle in die Paarl is 90% weens “dronk jong mense wat ’n show wil opsit”. Sy skryf verder dat dit nie padresies is wat gevaarlik is nie, maar dronk en onverskillige mense wat probeer drag race en ongelukke maak. Duncan Francke sê, “Hou op drag racing blameer vir ongelukke in die Paarl. Hoeveel ongelukke gebeur daar in die Hoofstraat. Drag race hulle dan in die hoofstraat ook?” Melisha Moerat meen mense moet ophou dronk mense die skuld gee vir padresies: “Die

mense is nie dronk nie ... as jy daar is of al was, kan enige een sê dis mans met vinnige karre wat dit wil afshow ... hoekom kan daar nie iets uitgewerk word vir hierdie groep karreliefhebbers nie?” Jessica Janke sê die mense moet in Killarney gaan ry. “Hoekom op ’n stuk pad waar daar huise en ander mense is. Dalk as party van julle in my huis bly, sal julle verstaan hoe erg dit is. Moet elke Maandagoggend 2 uur wakker lê en luister hoe hulle jaag.” Munisipale bestuurder van Drakenstein, Johann Mettler, meen die probleem is nie net beperk tot Drakenstein nie, maar is

iets wat regoor die land en selfs wêreldwyd kop uitgesteek het. Hy sê die aard van die probleem maak dit ook moeiliker om ’n oplossing te vind om dit aan te spreek of te bekamp. “Versnelwedrenne (padresies) word nie gepatrolleer as ’n spoedoortreding nie, maar as roekelose en nalatige bestuur. Dit word dus hanteer as ’n kriminele oortreding en wanneer ’n persoon daarvoor in hegtenis geneem word, word kriminele klagtes gelê.” Hy sê wanneer ’n probleemarea goed gepatrolleer word, hierdie bedrywighede eenvoudig na ’n ander gebied skuif. “Wanneer daar toegeslaan word op ’n groep

verdagte renjaers, word daar dikwels boetes uitgereik vir onpadwaardige voertuie en in enkele gevalle, dronkbestuur. Wanneer die skuldiges wel vasgetrek word, vind ons dikwels dat die hof hulle weer vrylaat omdat dit baie moeilik is om voldoende bewyse bymekaar te maak wat sal lei tot ’n skuldigbevinding.” Mettler sê die verkeersafdeling is tans besig om te kyk na die moontlikheid van ’n 24-uur verkeersdiens en of dit die probleem meer doeltreffend sal aanspreek. * Illegal drag racing on the streets of Paarl and surrounding areas is still a problem for both residents and law enforcers.

Tienermeisie, tuinier trek vermeende dief vas MARYKE SWART

Binnekort open die deure van die eertydse tabakfabriek van British American Tobacco wat omskep word in ’n nuwe inkopiesentrum. Die gebou wat vroeër gebruik is vir die verwerking van tabak en het lank leeg gestaan, totdat ’n plaaslike ontwikkelaar die gebou op ’n veiling bekom het. Die ontwikkeling sal sekerlik Paarl se middedorp ’n broodnodige finansiële inspuiting gee. En dan wag ons verder in spanning vir nuus oor die Waterfront-winkelsentrum ontwikkel, skaars ’n klipgooi hiervandaan.

“You should be of one mind, full of sympathy toward each other, loving one another with tender hearts.” 1 Peter 3:8

’n Leerder van die Hoër Meisieskool Paarl en ’n tuinier het ’n vermeende dief in haar spore gestuit ná sy op heterdaad by die motor van ’n inwoner in Derde Laan, Paarl, betrap is. Lize Zülch vertel sy was kort voor 15:00 op pad na haar motor wat in die oprit van haar huis agter ’n toe hek geparkeer was, toe sy ’n vrou by haar motor sien krap. “Ek het my vrek geskrik en gegil.” Dit is dieselfde bloedstollende gil wat die graad 11-leerder van HMS, Berlé Edwards, gehoor en laat ondersoek instel het. Berlé sê toe sy deur hul veiligheidshek kyk en die vrou in Zülch se oprit oorkant die pad sien staan, het sy uitgehardloop. Bennie Fourie, haar buurvrou se tuinier, het dieselfde gil gehoor en oor die muur geloer. Toe hy die vrou sien, het hy ook besluit om te gaan hand bysit en haar in Zülch se oprit voorgekeer. Met Berlé ook naby, het die vrou vir Fourie gesê sy het haar hospitaalkaart in bosse daar

Dit is toe dat Berlé haar beste “atletiekskoene” aantrek en haar agternasit met Bennie ’n kortkop agter haar. Hulle kon daarin slaag om haar ’n entjie verder vas te trek. Sy en Fourie wou die vrou daar hou totdat die polisie kom, maar ’n verbyganger het vol-

gens Fourie hul aangeraai om haar te laat gaan “omdat daar niks van sou kom nie”. Hulle het haar skaars laat gaan toe ’n sekerheidsvoertuig van Thornburn daar verbykom. Bennie sê hulle het die sekerheidsbeamptes ingelig oor die voorval en hulle het haar enkele meters verder vasgetrek. Die polisie is toe ontbied, wat toe die vrou wegvat het. Zülch het haar beursie onder haar motor gekry en dit blyk nie of iets gesteel is nie. Dieselfde vrou is Sondag na bewering in Zülch se buurvrou, Marie Nel, se huis betrap. Nel sê sy en haar huurder, Lael Pienaar, het buite gestaan en gesels. Hy is na sy woonstel toe en sy in haar huis in. Sy is weer uit om wasgoed te gaan ophang. Toe sy weer in die huis kom, het sy die vrou in haar gang gekry. Sy het vir Nel gesê dat sy kos soek. Nel het vir haar gesê sy moet loop. Toe sy haar Spanjoel-hond op die vrou se spoor sit, het sy pad gevat. * A learner at Girls High School and a gardener managed to stop an alleged burglar in her tracks.

Crime stats reveal both successes and concerns Paarl Cluster is one of the five clusters with the highest number of business burglaries in the Western Cape. This was disclosed when the 2013/2014 crime statistics were released last week. Paarl police station was among the top five police stations in the same category, showing a significant increase in business burglaries with 62 more cases reported than the previous book year. Residential burglaries, however showed a decrease in numbers, with 134 less cases reported. The 2013/2014 crime statistics were released on Friday by national Police Commissioner, Genl Riah Phiyega and Police Minister Nkosonathi Nhleko. In the Western Cape, contact crimes in total increased by 5% from the previous book year. Murders were up by 12,8%, attempted murders by 2,5%, and aggravated robbery by 16,7% which includes sub-categories of robberies at residential premises (14%) and non-residential premises (11,5%). In the Boland region, Paarl police station showed little increase in murders with only two more cases reported.

Sexual offences were down by 16 cases, while common assault went up by 43 cases and common robbery by 34 cases. Aggravated robbery was down by 20 cases, although robberies at residential premises and non-residential premises showed a slight increase. More cases of motor vehicle and motorcycle theft and theft out of or from motor vehicles were reported than in the previous period. Paarl East’s efforts to decrease contact crimes within the area paid off, paid off with all but common assault showing a decline. Business burglary increased by only two cases while residential burglaries remained consistent. Groot Drakenstein showed a slight increase in murders, attempted murders, common assault, common robbery and aggravated robbery as well as theft from and out of motor vehicle. Business burglaries and residential burglaries showed declining numbers. Franschhoek police station had twice as many murders reported than in 2012/2013 and five more case of sexual crimes, but otherwise showed a decrease in contact

crimes. Property related crimes relating to residential burglaries and business burglaries increased. Klapmuts had three less murders while sexual offences remained consistent. Assault with the intent to inflict grievous bodily harm and aggravated robbery including the sub-categories of residential and business robberies increased. Residential and business burglaries both showed a sharp incline. In Mbekweni, attempted murder, aggravated robbery and business robbery were the only crimes which showed an increase of more than five additional cases than reported in the previous period. The number of murders reported at Wellington police station in 2013/2014 remained consistent with what was reported in 2012/2013 while sexual crimes showed an increase of an additional 17 cases reported. Other contact crimes showing an increase are attempted murder, common assault and common robbery. *For the comprehensive crime statistics visit the SAPS website at www.saps.gov.za. * Go to www.paarlpost.co.za and vote on our poll about the crime stats.

Winkelbestuurder, assistent ontvoer ’n Ontvoeringsdrama het hom onlangs in die dorp afgespeel toe ’n Pakistani-selfoonwinkelbestuurder en ’n winkelassistent ontvoer is. Dié bestuurder van ’n selfoonwinkel in die middedorp se broer het die polisie se hulp ingeroep nadat hy op 11 September omstreeks 17:30 ’n oproep van vermoedelik een van die ontvoerders ontvang het. Hulle het geld by hom geëis. Die polisie se taakspan en onderhandelingspan is genader om die losprys te on-

derhandel en ná drie dae is die verdagtes aangesê om die geld by ’n plaaslike vulstasie te kry in ruil vir die gyselaars se vrylating. Die vier verdagtes is by die optelpunt in hegtenis geneem, en die gyselaars is sonder beserings vrygelaat. Die verdagtes, onderskeidelik van Mbekweni en Paarl-Oos, het reeds vlugtig in die hof verskyn. Hulle moet op 25 September weer in die hof wees en bly tot dan in aanhouding.

Ambagsman sterf in brandende opslaanhut DEVIDEAN MOSES ’n Ambagsman van Loverslane, Paarl-Oos, is Sondag 21 September omstreeks 04:00 dood ná die opslaanhut waarin hy gewoon het aan die brand geslaan het. Manuel Brown (41) het in ’n opslaanhut agter sy suster, Anna-Marie Damonse, beter bekend as Koela, se erf gewoon. ’n Geskokte Damonse het hartseer vertel dat hul familie die vorige dag ’n familiereüniepartytjie in New Orleans-park bygewoon het. “Ons almal het vrolik van die reünie teruggekom, was moeg en het vroeg gaan slaap. Ure later

het ek net gehoor hoe Manuel gil. Later het hy na my geroep: ‘Koela, Koela, help my, asseblief!’ “Ek het uit die bed gespring, uitgehardloop en gesien hoe die vlamme reeds hoog by sy huis brand. Ek het toe talle kere die deur van sy hut probeer oopstamp, maar alles was tevergeefs omdat daar ’n ketting met ’n slot voor aan sy deur was.” Die brand het na twee aangrensende opslaanhutte versprei. Die bure en omstanders het almal gehelp om die vlamme te blus totdat die brandweer daar opgedaag het. Die Drakenstein-brandweer het die vuur geblus, maar dit was reeds te laat vir Brown, wat op die toneel dood verklaar is. Brown se lyk is later in die puin van die verkoolde hut gevind. Die oorsaak van die brand is nog steeds onbekend, maar ’n saak van brandstigting word deur die Paarl-Oos-polisie ondersoek. Mense met inligting kan die Paarl-Oos-polisiekantoor by 021 877 5900 bel. Die begrafnis vind Saterdag 09:00 by die Ou Apostoliese kerk in Lantanastraat plaas. * A man of Loverslane recently died in his burning shack.

Gewapende roof neem toe in PaarlOos DEVIDEAN MOSES Gewapende rowers teiken skynbaar die PaarlOos-area nadat daar op nog ’n besigheid verlede week toegeslaan is. Drie mans het Vrydag (19 September) by Take & Pay in Smartie Town toegeslaan, terwyl kliënte besig was om inkopies in die winkel te doen. Volgens ’n polisiewoordvoerder het die mans na bewering by die winkel ingeloop met vuurwapens. “Een van die mans het na bewering by die deur wag gehou, terwyl die ander een oor die toonbank gespring het en die derde een het die sekuriteitswag na die agterkant geneem,”ver-

tel die polisiewoordvoerder. Volgens hom was die klante baie kalm terwyl die voorval plaasgevind het en het steeds voortgegaan om hul inkopies te doen. Die verdagtes het ’n onbekende bedrag geld en sigarette geneem en het toe uit die winkel gehardloop en op die vlug geslaan. ’n Klag van gewapende roof word deur die polisie ondersoek. Enigiemand met inligting oor die verdagtes, kan konst. Jeronimoh Isaacs by 021 877 5900 bel. ) Vyf mans wat sedert Desember 2013 op die soeklys van die Paarl-Oos-polisie was vir verskeie ernstige misdade soos roof, sakeroof, aan-

randing, die besit van vermoedelike gesteelde eiendom asook die besit van onwettige vuurwapens, is onlangs deur die flinke diens van die polisie vasgetrek. Dít nadat die groep mans na bewering ’n drankwinkel, Orleans Off Sales in Brookslaan, New Orleans, beroof het. Die mans is met ’n onbekende bedrag geld, drie vuurwapens asook ’n bottel Bells daar weg, wat toe later in hul besit gevind is. Die verdagtes het Maandag 15 September in die Paarl-landdroshof verskyn en bly in aanhouding tot wanneer hul borgtogaansoek op 29 September aangehoor word.

Ma van Dempers-gesin sterf Engela Johanna Dempers is op 93-jarige leeftyd op Woensdag 17 September in Huis Vergenoegd oorlede. Engela en haar man, wyle Japie Dempers, wat ook vroeër vanjaar oorlede is, het op Piketberg hul lewe as egpaar saam begin. Hulle het toe besluit om in die Paarl te kom nes skop en ook om hier hul eie konstruksie-besigheid te begin. Nadat die Dempers-egpaar hulle hier gevestig het, het hulle besluit om eiehandig hul eie huis te bou. Engela was toe elke aand van die week en gedurende naweke wyle Japie se handlanger terwyl hy die bouwerk self gedoen het. Engela was op ’n daaglikse basis betrokke by hul konstruksiemaatskappy en het weekliks die lone en boeke tot in 1967 gedoen, toe hul kinders hulle by die besigheid aangesluit het.

Misdaadsyfers bly ’n kwelpunt in SA Die misdaadsyfers van die afgelope boekjaar wat onlangs aangekondig is, laat ’n mens wonder hoe akkuraat hulle werklik is. Dit voel tans asof daar ’n wolk van misdaad oor die vallei hang. Daar kan wel gesê word dat daar in die gebied ’n daling in ernstige misdaad soos moord en geweldaanrandings is, asook ’n groot verligting oor die afname in seksuele misdaad. Maar byna daagliks word jan alleman die slagoffer van die een of ander soort diefstal. Huise en motors is beslis nie meer veilig nie, met motordiefstal en diefstal vanuit ’n motor wat grootliks ’n styging toon. Inbrake by ondernemings in die Paarl het ook die afgelope vyf jaar skerp toegeneem. Maar hoewel die statistieke sukses- én kommerpunte uitgewys het, bevraagtekenkennerssteedsdiegeldigheiddaarvan,enmeenditspreekslegs van sake wat aangemeld is. Hoe dit ook al sy, een ding is seker: Suid-Afrika het nog ’n ver pad om te stap in die aanspreek van misdaad. Die afname in ernstiger misdade is miskien ’n teken dat daar daadwerklike pogings aangewend word. Soos polisie-amptenare al verskeie kere genoem het, bly dit egter elke burger se verantwoordelikheid om verdagtes en misdaad aan te meld.

Take a break and have a braai As I write this, I am sitting on my beloved Paarl Mountain at Christmas Camp. My fire is burning and the steak is waiting to hit the coals. I have just returned to Paarl from the epic National Braai Tour, which took me across the country with a bunch of selected braai enthusiasts. We travelled from Johannesburg to Paarl, crossing the Free State, Northern Cape, Eastern and Southern Cape, until we reached the green grass of the Boland. The Braai Tour is an initiative of Jan Braai. The aim of this tour was to get the nation geared up for National Braai Day, which took place yesterday on Heritage Day, 24 September. And yes, there is no better way of celebrating our heritage than sitting around a fire, getting ready to braai something over the coals. Jan started Braai Day 10 years ago in order to unite South Africans around a braai fire, celebrate our heritage and restore pride in our national flag. Since then South Africans across the world have embraced this initiative. For eight days on tour we passed through beautiful towns, each night setting up camp in a spectacular SANPark, and, of course, braaiing at every opportunity. There were 130 people from all walks of life on the tour. We were divided into teams of four, each team travelling in their own vehicle, camping, cooking and celebrating together for the duration. I had no idea who my teammates were until my arrival in Johannesburg. Things could seriously have gone wrong if our personalities had clashed. But to my relief, the three young men who I was teamed up with were a treat. And after getting to know each other better, it was evident that we all came from completely different backgrounds. But the adventure, the numerous daily braais, and a mutual love of our country brought us together with no problem whatsoever. Across the 2 200 km that we travelled, there were many who wanted to join us around the braai, but unfortunately the powers-that-be have not embraced Jan Braai’s

braai day initiative. They reckon that he has boycotted Heritage Day. Sorry, but what bull! Now, for the first time, Heritage Day is actually being celebrated as it should be, with South Africans being strongly reminded of their unique heritage. It is perhaps one of the only public holidays which now has true significance - not just another day off with no meaning, except to sleep in late. Just take a look at other national days across the globe, such as Independence Day on the 4th of July in America. During this day all Americans fly their flags high and with great pride celebrate their own heritage. So why can we not do what we love doing best on Heritage Day and braai. And here I sit in solitude on Paarl Mountain. After ending my Braai Tour barely twelve hours ago, wanting to celebrate a bit of Paarl’s heritage. The first European settlers named Paarl Mountain ‘Pearl Mountain’ because of the giant granite rocks that glimmer like pearls when wet. But the original inhabitants, the Khoi, called it tortoise mountain because, from certain angles, the rocks resemble a tortoise. Christmas Camp was so named almost a century ago when the Grundlingh and Perold families ascended the mountain for their Christmas holiday with horse carts laden with camping gear and produce. It is a natural campsite with the very old wild olive trees protecting visitors from the elements. On a large granite rock the Christmas Camp symbol is preserved, followed by the names of the children that made their arrival each year. This too is part of Paarl’s rich heritage. And as my fire slowly turns into coals, I think of all the wonderful parts of the country that I have travelled through and all the colourful people that I have met and who I am proud to call compatriots. May National Braai Day in conjunction with Heritage Day grow from strength to strength, making us all proudly South African.

Als nie pluis met hierdie selfoontoring in Noorder-Paarl nie Ek het heel per abuis en met groot ontsteltenis die kennisgewing op die hoek van Retief- en Reitzstraat raakgesien (ten spyte van die feit dat dit so klein en onopsigtelik is dat 99% van Noorder-Paarl waarskynlik dit nie raakgesien het nie) dat iemand beoog om ’n selfoontoring in die wingerd so na aan ons wonings op te rig. Wat my meer ontstel het, is die feit dat hulle beoog om selfs nie eers in die koerant kennis te gee van die toring nie. Soek ’n mens cellphone tower health risk op die Internet, kom daar talle waarskuwings op oor die risiko’s van onder meer kanker vir diegene wat naby so ’n toring woon. Ek sal graag wil verneem of eni-

ge navorsing deur diegene wat die toring wil oprig gedoen is, en sal graag so ’n verslag wil besigtig. Verder dink ek dit is slegs regverdig dat waar so ’n projek wat die moontlikheid inhou om so ’n groot invloed op mense se lewe te hê, hulle ten minste die geleentheid gegun word om daarvan kennis te

dra (en ingelig word van moontlike gevare wat dit mag inhou vir hul gesondheid), sodat hulle die geleentheid het om behoorlik insae te lewer. Ek versoek alle partye hierbo genoem om asseblief nie die projek voort te sit alvorens daar behoorlik kennis gegee is en navorsing gedoen is oor ander gebiede, ver van die gemeenskap waar dit alternatiewelik opgerig kan word nie. Op die powere klein kennisgewinkie sê dit dat die afsnytyd vir insette is reeds 30 September 2014. Ongelukkig, weens die swak kennisgewing, het ek nou eers kennis gekry.

notice at the German Club on Saturday. At the end of the evening we were able to hand over a cheque to the value of R50 000 to the Boland School of Autism.

SAPS goes on shopping spree We were having lunch at John Dory’s at the Paarl Mall on Sunday 7 September at 15:30. Much to our dismay a police vehicle, “crime investigation unit”, registration BSX 481B Nissan doublecab bakkie, parked in a disabled parking and picked up two ladies in casual clothes laden with several grocery bags. They had clearly been shopping. What would this have to do with official police crime investigation? Will anyone be held accountable?

SHOCKED PAARL

Paarl police spokesperson, Capt Louise du Plessis, said the vehicle was not one of theirs and that she would forward the complaint to the relevant station commander.

We would also like to thank Robert and Heidi Knorr of the Paarl German Club for their kind support that evening.

STYLE FOR HAIR PAARL

Thank you for helping me when I fell ill Herewith I would like to thank the managers and staff and customers of Red Mountain Spur in Paarl Mall for their undivided help when I fell ill inside their premises on Sunday 14 September. To the paramedics, Bester and Adonis, thanks for your medical assistance. The Paarl Hospital management and staff, doctors and nurses, etc - the hospital looks immaculate. To my family and friends, thank you for being so concerned about me. It is indeed in times like these that the song really has its meaning: You never walk alone.

Be on the look out for these con artists ‘from Malaysia’ As a local businessman I would like to warn the public of a crooked couple who are stealing from unsuspecting business people. I too was victim to their shenanigans recently. The couple entered my shop in Klein Drakenstein, claiming to be visitors from Malaysia. They made a small purchase during which money changed hands and started to chat with my shop assistant, telling him how they were enjoying their stay in Paarl. They were very friendly and we really thought they were tourists. They then asked whether we did not have a R200 note for them,

the one with Nelson Mandela’s image on, as they want it as a keepsake and they will in turn hand us two R100 notes in exchange for it. I took out my wallet, which had a substantial amount of money in it, to see whether I did have any R200 notes. I did not and told my shop assistant to look in the till. I put my wallet back in my pocket and the visitors were still chatting to me. When they eventually left my shop, I felt for my wallet and it was gone, together with a few thousand rands. I ran out of the shop and there

was no sign of the two. I even went looking for them in my car. But they had just vanished. The two were well-dressed and well-spoken and the woman had a tattoo on her hand which looked very much like some kind of cross. I want to warn others of this so that they do not become a victim like me. These two are very smooth and the fact that my wallet disappeared was like magic because I did not feel a thing. Please be warned.

Voormalige Girls’ Higher onthou Paarl Daar is ’n kompetisie vir liedjieskrywers in een van ons tydskrifte en dit het my weer laat terug dink aan my grootwordjare in die Paarl. Ek was vanaf gr. 3 tot gr. 7 in die Hoër Meisie Skool. Ons was, en is steeds bekend as Girls’ Highers, net soos die Hoër Jongenskool se Boishaaiers. In die vroeë 1940’s het Boys’ High ’n verskeidenheidskonsert in die Paarl-stadsaal aangebied. Een van die items was ’n koor uitvoering en van die Girls’ Highers is genooi om daaraan deel te neem. Ek was dié Saterdagaand lid van die gehoor in die stampvol

saal. Die lied wat hulle gesing het was Johann Strauss se Blue Danube waarvoor iemand Afrikaanse woorde geskryf het. Ná die applous het hulle ’n kort liedjie gesing wat Aldred du Toit, die musiekonderwyser, geskryf en getoonset het. Ek het die liedjie baie gou aangeleer en wanneer ek sit en terugdink aan my Paarl-jare, dan sing ek dit. Ek is 85 jaar oud en hoop dat daar nog senior burgers is wat die konsert onthou en dat die woorde vir hulle mooi herinneringe terug bring.

12 PaarlPost Brandbestryders se vaardighede getoets

Nuus News

25 September, 2014

Vyf brandbestryders van Drakenstein Brandweerdienste het onlangs aan die nasionale Firefighter Rescue Challenge deelgeneem. Die jaarlikse kompetisie is op 11 September in Modderfontein gehou en word aangebied deur South African Emercency Care, ’n instelling wat brandbestryders in die korporatiewe wêreld oplei maar ook professionele brandbestryders die geleenthede bied om hul vaardighede op te skerp. Die kompetisie het bestaan uit ’n individuele

uitdaging, ’n hindernisbaan en ’n reddingsuitdaging. Die span van Drakenstein – Brenton van Schoor, Leonard Julies, John Petersen en Leon van Wyk het die hindernisbaan aangedurf en sewende geëindig uit 25 spanne wat deelgeneem het. Spankaptein Jaco Stander het hierdie ronde uitgesit maar sy staal in die individuele uitdaging gewys waar hy in ’n tyd van 03:20 klaargemaak het, byna twee minute voor die vyf minute afsnytyd. Die span het egter in die reddingsuitdaging,

waar spanlede geblinddoek was, bietjie vasgeval. Spanlede het voor die kompetisie by die Pasadena Spur kelner gespeel, en het daarmee sowat R1 100 vir die kompetisie ingesamel het. Stander sê ander rolspelers soos Meadow Feeds, HG Molenaars, Paarl Mall en Gelderblom Motors het ook bydraes gemaak, en daar waar hulle nog kortgekom het, het spanlede self die wa deur die drif getrek. *Om ’n video te sien van die span se deelname by die kompetisie besoek www.paarlpost.co.za.

Local residents watch as a woman’s body was recovered from the river near O.R Block.

Missing woman’s body found in river The body of a woman who went missing two weeks ago, has been recovered in the Berg River near O.R Block, Mbekweni. According to the spokesperson for Mbekweni police, Sergeant Nceba Vanqa, 19-yearold Vuyiseka Daluka’s decomposed body was found on 18 September around 09:30 floating near a tree trunk in the river. Daluka’s boyfriend, who reported her missing at the Mbekweni police station on the 6 September, identified her body by the clothes she was wearing the day she went

missing, and the traditional beads on her wrists and ankles. Her body was removed by forensic pathologists to determine the cause of death. The autopsy showed no signs or marks on her body that might have indicated that she was murdered. Only a small amount of sand was found inside her stomach. The circumstances surrounding her death are thus still unclear but police have ruled out murder and therefore have also finalised their investigation into the matter.

PIENK BOME VIR KANKER: NTT Volkswagen Paarl het ’n motor beskikbaar gestel wat met pienk oorgetrek is ter ondersteuning van die kankerprojek. Mense moet uitkyk vir dié pienk Polo wat by verskeie plekke in die volgende twee maande te sien sal wees. NTT Volkswagen het dit goedgedink om ook ’n kompetisie te begin waar mense hul naam en van kan SMS na die nommer wat op die motor verskyn en so ’n kans het om lekker pryse te wen. Die projek behels die bewusmaking van borskanker deur die toedraai van bome met pienk materiaal teen R100 elk. Daar word gestreef om 1 000 bome toe te draai. Die burgemeester, Gesie van Deventer, is die beskermvrou van die projek. By haar is van links kapt.

OP DIE PLANKE: Mits dese wil ek vir jou sê: Uittreksels uit sy verhale, dagboeke, briewe en kabarette, stel die ontslape skrywer, Hennie Aucamp, aan die woord in hierdie produksie wat Saterdag 26 om 20:00 by die Ou Meul-teater te sien is. Die produksie is geskep in opdrag van die Woordfees, ter viering van Aucamp se 80ste verjaardag, maar kort daarna is hy egter oorlede en is die produksie daarom nie net ’n viering van sy literêre bydrae nie, maar ook ’n herdenking van sy nalatenskap. In die produksie word daar dankie gesê dat hy vir die grootste gedeelte van sy lewe onverpoos so mildelik van homself gegee het. Vir ’n voyeur de la vie is die ganse lewe onwettige teater. Hy sou dit nie anders wou hê nie. Want dan sou hy toegang moet betaal. Die akteurs is Paarliete Johann Nel (links) en André Terblanche (regs). Kaartjies is R90 by 083 564 0056.

nings nie, waarvan Storm in ’n D-Cup die mees onlangse een is. Dit is juis met hierdie vertoning wat sy vroue (en mans!) by die funksie gaan vermaak. Saam met haar vertoning word ook ’n driegang maaltyd aangebied. Elkeen ontvang ook ’n geskenksak vol verrassings en bykans 30 prystrekkings wag op gelukkige gaste.

ruary. After having played at the Horstens Blues Festival in Denmark last year, Patlansky received a summons to headline the November 2014 event. Ever since his debut album, Standing at the Station, followed by his 2004 major label True Blues, Patlansky has been immersing himself in the rich and rollicking world of blues rock music.

Nuwe uitklop-kampioene vir Paarl-streek wink Die 2013 Paarlstreek Uitklopkampioen, Vineyards, is Saterdag deur ’n begeesterde Rangers in die kwarteindronde van die gewilde Paarlstreek-kompetisie uitgeskakel. Rangers, wat vanjaar sy 100ste bestaansjaar vier, het met goed gestruktureerde rugby en uitstekende afrondingswerk die span van Vineyards met 25-23 verslaan en kom in die eerste halfeindronde-wedstryd Vrydagaand (19:00) te staan teen Young Standards, wat Riverstones met 39-19 van die veld afgevee het. Young Standards het in die proses vyf drieë gedruk, en die halfeindronde-wedstryd teen Rangers beloof om ’n regte riller te wees.

Rangers sal die bordjies wil verhang vir die twee liga-nederlae wat hy in die 2014-seisoen teen die omgesukkelde Young Standards gely het. In die eerste wedstryd van die dag het Violets ietwat verras deur die vlugvoetige Simondium met 2914 te verslaan. Simondium, wat in die eerste ronde behoorlik amok gemaak het teen Young Gardens, het hom vasgeloop teen die beter en groter pak voorspelers van Violets en is die les geleer dat elke wedstryd in die uitklop-toernooi ’n ander uitdaging bied. In die laaste wedstryd van die dag het die 2014-ligakampioen, Laer Paarl, min moeite met Allandale ondervind en is Allandale se sei-

soen met 42-22 beëindig. Violets en Laer Paarl speel Vrydagaand om 20:30 in die laaste halfeindronde teen mekaar by Faurestraat-stadion en sal Violets hul derde posisie in die 2013 Paarlstreek-kompetisie met hul sterk voorspelers en vinnige agterspelers graag wil verbeter. In die voorwedstryd om 16:30 pak die o. 15-spanne van Rangers en Laer Paarl mekaar in die halfeindronde van die o. 15-kompetisie, waarna Young Gardens en Riverstones se o. 17-spanne mekaar die stryd aansê. Alle junior en senior finale wedstryde word op Woensdagaand 1 Oktober vanaf 15:30 te Faurestraatstadion beslis.

BOLAND: AL DRIE SPANNE AAN WENKANT

Boland Kavaliers maak skoonskip Die Boland Kavaliers het Saterdag vriend en vyand verras deur die SWD Arende met 34-25 kaf te draf op Outeniqua Park te George, in ’n Absa Curriebeker Eersteliga-wedstryd.

FRANS LE ROUX

Asof ’n bonuspunt-oorwinning vir die Kavaliers nie genoeg was nie, was die kersie op die koek toe ál drie Boland-spanne – die Kavaliers, Boland o. 21’s én die Boland o. 19’s – oorwinnings oor hul onderskeie opponente van SWD behaal het. Die Kavaliers se inspirerende agtsteman, Zandré Jordaan, het in die tiende minuut die eerste punte van die wedstryd aangeteken, ná ’n aggressiewe kraglopie tot ’n drie gelei het. ’n Eric Zana-skepskop in die 20ste minuut en ’n verdoelde drie deur die vleuel Chesswin Williams in die dertigste minuut, het aan die

Kavaliers ’n stewige 17-0 voorsprong besorg. SWD het vir die res van die eerste helfte die meeste speelwerk gedoen en binne 10 minute 10 punte opgestapel om rustyd met 17-10 binne te gaan. Met Boland se agterlyn wat duidelik lus was vir hardloop – wat in die tweede helfte tot twee drieë gelei het vir die vleuel Danwell Demas – en met die heelagter Eric Zana se stelskopwerk uit die boonste rakke, was die Kavaliers uiteindelik te sterk vir die tuisspan. Eerskomende Vrydag meet die Boland Kavaliers kragte teen die Grens Bulldogs om 16:00 op die Boland Stadion, terwyl die Boland o. 19’s en die Boland o. 21’s te staan kom teen die Limpopo Blou Bulle se o. 19’s en o. 21’s (om 12:15 en 14:00) onderskeidelik.

Java MTB challenge at Van Loveren Chase the thrill of excitement in fresh country air by signing up for the 2nd annual Van Loveren’s Java MTB Challenge, which takes place on Saturday 4 October at Van Loveren Family Vineyards in the Robertson Valley. Runners can join in too, by entering a new 10 km vineyard trail run across the farm. Riders can choose between four MTB trails varying in distance, terrain and technical difficulty, catering for all levels - from children and beginners through to the seasoned mountain biker. Java MTB is a PPAendorsed event and was adjudged the “Best New PPA Event” last year. There will be activities for the whole family to enjoy, with prizes and lucky draws of over R40 000 up for grabs. Enjoy the day with great music to

set the mood, plenty of food stalls and the basket of Van Loveren’s famous activities such as food and wine pairings, and tasty meals in the farm bistro, Christina’s. Route descriptions The 8 km MTB route is an easy, non-technical fun ride suitable for children, a perfect family event. The 20 km route is ideal for beginners with rewarding vineyard and valley views. The 80 km is a gruelling route for top riders only. It includes many sections of the 2014 ABSA Cape Epic route, virgin territory and custombuilt single tracks. The 1 800 m elevation will challenge even the most seasoned rider, making this an excellent training race for the “Bridge Cape Pioneer Track” and “To Hell and Back” events.

The new 10 km trail run is a very scenic route that crosses the Breede River, taking runners along vineyards and across the Elandsberg Mountain. Don’t be fooled by the distance: the 350 m elevation and rocky terrain will make you look forward to the finish line. The event is held as fund-raiser for a number of beneficiaries including the main one, Robertson Preparatory School. The chief sponsors of the day are Van Loveren, Pick ‘n Pay and Hi-Q Robertson, with additional generous sponsorship from Lelienfontein Vine Growers, Roelou Barry Ford, Imvusa, Tekco Packaging and Cape Winelands District Municipality. For entries visit www.javamtb.co.za. For enquiries, contact Van Loveren on 023 615 1505.
