DAAR is geen versekering dat Boland Rugby in die nabye toekoms enige wedstryde gaan wen nie. Alhoewel daar verlede week ’n hernieude finansiële borgskapboei na hulle uitgegooi is, wil die dinge op die rugbyvelde maar net nie vlot nie. Die versekeringsreus se borgskap is welkom, maar as die Bolanders nie hulle sokkies gaan optrek en wenne verseker nie, gaan dit sekerlik die laaste keer wees dat versekering die Bolanders se bas gaan red. ) Dis dalk vir party ’n kleine troos dat hulle ’n paar rand gaan terugkry vir die onlangse kragfiasko. Maar die volgende paar maande gaan broekskeur wees, met die petrolprys wat volgende week met 80c per liter gaan styg. Nog stygings word ook verwag voor die einde van die jaar en die ergste nog is dat kospryse gevolglik ook gaan styg. Die leuse vir die toekoms is dus: spaar en vasbyt!

Rainy spring day SPRING DAY is here, but the weather just does not want to play along. Today remains cloudy with a high of only 17°C. But from tomorrow, the mercury drops to an expected high of 14°C and the heavens open, bringing heavy rains. More rain is forecast for Saturday, but the good news is that although Sunday will still be on the chilly side at 16°C, it is expected to start clearing and by Monday warmer spring weather can be expected.

Hoax delays trains A HOAXTER once again caused huge delays for railway commuters last week following a bomb scare. Paarl police were alerted on Friday shortly before 07:00 of a possible bomb at Paarl railway station. As a safety precaution, the station had to be evacuated and the railway tracks inspected by the police with the assistance of the K-9 unit. The regional manager of Metrorail Western Cape, Mthuthuzeli Swartz, attributed the hoax call to a coward intent on delaying innocent commuters. “We condemn the action in the strongest possibleterms–anyindividualcausingsuch mayhem must be dealt with severely.” Swartz reiterated his earlier appeal to the public to expose hoax callers. “These individuals thrive on causing chaos and must be stopped immediately.” He requested anyone with any informationthatmightexposetheculprittogivetheir information to the police to assist them in apprehending the offender. Six trains were delayed for between 20 and 40 minutes while police explosives experts swept the area. The train service resumed at 08:20 after the area was declared safe. Anyone with any information regarding these incidents can phone their information through anonymously - a reward of up to R25 000 is payable for information leading to conviction.

Bespaar só op jou krag KRAGKOSTES het die afgelope paar jaar die hoogte ingeskiet. Drakenstein Munisipaliteit raai mense aan om kostes te bespaar deur te verander na ’n kleiner stroombreker. Moenie dan nie alle elektriese toestelle gelyktydig gebruik nie, om sodoende nie die laer stroombreker (A) te laat afslaan nie Elektriese toestelle gebruik min of meer die volgende ampere wanneer hulle aangeskakel word: geyser 10A, stoof 6A-15A afhangende van hoeveel plate en oond aangeskakel word, strykyster 4A, ketel 8A, verwarmer 10A, yskas/vrieskas 3A, mikrogolfoond 2A, stofsuier 4A en lugversorger 4A.

Indien ’n mens die Ampére van al die implemente optel wat tegelykertyd gebruik word, moet die totaal laer wees as die stroombreker wat jy gebruik. Ander toestelle wat ’n verdere las op verbruik plaas is die TV, radio, gloeilampe, swembadpomp, wasmasjien en ondervloerse verhitting. Skakel onnodige ligte af en gebruik warmer klere en komberse, eerder as verwarmers. Installeer ’n tydskakelaar om die geyser slegs van 04:00 tot 06:00 soggens en van 20:00 tot 22:00 saans aan te skakel. Ondersoek die voordele van ander bronne van krag, soos gas en sonverhitting.

HUISBRAAK is aan die toeneem in die Drakenstein-gebied. In Paarl-Oos alleen is daar die afgelope naweek by nie minder nie as 18 wonings ingebreek. En in Paarl-Wes het sewe inbrake plaasgevind by huise en besighede. Dit is ook kommerwekkend hoeveel inbrake plaasvind terwyl huiseienaars tuis is en slaap. En motors word ook erg geteiken. Sondagoggend is ’n man se Nissan-bakkie gesteel, terwyl hy slegs vir 15 minute in ’n winkel was. Die voorval het tussen 10:45 en 11:00 plaasgevind toe die man sy voertuig by Noorder-Paarl Kwik Spar geparkeer het. Toe hy uit die winkel kom, was sy bakkie weg. Daar is ook tien gevalle van diefstal vanuit motorvoertuie aan die polisie in die Paarl gerapporteer. Wellington het ook die afgelope paar maande erg deurgeloop met inbrake, maar

onlangs is ’n deurbraak gemaak toe arrestasies gemaak is van verdagtes wat verbind word met vier inbrake in Berg-en-Dal. Die volgende wenke kan misdaad voorkom: * Sluit altyd jou voertuig en hou vensters toe. Moet geen waardevolle besittings in voertuie laat nie. * Maak seker dat jou huis toegesluit is, en as jy met vakansie gaan, vra die bure om ’n ogie oor jou erf te hou. Stel ook die polisie hiervan in kennis. * Leer ken jou bure en hou ’n ogie op mekaar se eiendom. * Wees veral versigtig met die hoeveelheid kontant wat jy saamdra, en wees uiters waaksaam wanneer jy geld trek by OTM’s. *Maaksekerdatjouselfoontealletyewerkend is, en sit noodnommers daarop. Die polisie is net ’n oproep weg, indien die publiek hulp nodig het. Hou ook jou gebied se sektornommer byderhand om direk die betrokke patrolliewa te kan kontak.

Heritage symposium in Paarl

LENTE. Die afgelope week het dit behoorlik gevoel asof lente in die lug is, met heerlike sonskynweer Maandag en Dinsdag. Hier geniet Tiaan Botes en Sunette Steyn die sonskynweer tussen lentebloeisels van ’n boord op die plaas Welgemoed by Wellington. Maar volgens die weervoorspelling word Lentedag Saterdag ontsier met nog reën en koue.

Twee sterf tydens gewelddadige naweek ’n VROU is die afgelope naweek vermoedelik met ’n graaf doodgeslaan. Die voorval het Sondag omstreeks 02:00 plaasgevind op ’n plaas in Klein Drakenstein. Volgens Paarl polisie het ’n man en ’n vrou buite ’n werkershuis gekuier. ’n Stryery het glo ontstaan waarna die man na bewering ’n graaf gaan haal en die vrou verskeie kere hiermee geslaan het. Die man het gaan slaap en toe hy later wakker word, het hy op die liggaam van Sylvia Beukes afgekom. Izak Skippers is in verband met die voorval in hegtenis geneem.

THE tragedy of the forced removals of black and coloured communities by the government during Apartheid will be commemorated during a function to be held in Paarl on 4 October. It will form part of the tenth symposium of Heritage South Africa from 4 to 6 October, hosted by the Drakenstein Heritage Foundation. The function will be held at Nelson wine estate where there will be talks by people who experienced the removals first-hand. Memories of old Paarl will be relived - historic photographs and memorabilia will be on display. There will also be a powerpoint presentation of the unveiling of Blue Heritage Plaques near Paarl railway station, School Street, Die Ou Tuin, Berg Street and Market Street. This event is organised by a committee of former Paarl West home owners under the auspices of the Drakenstein Heritage Foundation. Heritage organisation members attend free (for an invitation, contactCathyRaymond at heritage@iafrica.com). During the rest of

the week, social historians, researchers, architects and restorers will discuss the social and economic history of the Valley and its influence on the development of the famous Cape homesteads. They will discuss how the three forces – indigenous peoples, settlers and slaves – combined to shape our heritage. Guests will visit 18th century sites in the centre of town and on surrounding farms during the symposium, which has the theme “From survival to opulence in 100 years: the rise of the Cape Dutch manor house”. The symposium will trace the development of the Cape from its geological beginnings, through the earliest inhabitants, to the arrival of the Dutch East India Company. The endeavours of these people, together, created the wealth that gave rise to the Sumptuary Laws (die Wet van Prag en Praal) of Governor Rijk Tulbagh 100 ye-

ars later to curb the ostentatious display of opulence. This period of prosperity is still represented by many examples of Cape vernacular architecture in the Drakenstein Valley. The symposium, in the hall of the Toringkerk, is open to everyone, but will be of special interest to members ofheritagesocietiesand those who are interested in heritage and cultural history of all the people of South Africa. On Friday 5 October there will be a variety of talks on the early inhabitants of the valley, including the Khoi and the first frontier war. The contribution of the slaves to the development at the Cape will be discussed by Prof Rob Shell, University of the Western Cape. There will also be a number of outings to visit historic buildings.

ATM fraud - who is to blame? ATM fraudsters are shopping merrily in Paarl. This is obvious from the number of ATM fraud cases which are being reported. These criminals have become extremely sophisticated, using handheld devices to clone card information. They are then able to duplicate the card and draw as much cash as they like from the cardholder’s account if they know the pin number. And not only are they operating in dark secluded corners, but they are now so confident of getting away with their crimes that they are operating in broad daylight and in the centre of Paarl. But who is actually to blame here? Yes, users of ATMs are continually warned to be extremely vigilant and not allow anyone near them when using these cash machines, as well as covering the key pad with one hand while entering the pin. But what are banks doing with their huge profits to counteract these crimes? South Africa has some of the highest banking costs in the world, so where is the expenditure for ensuring the safety of their clients and their hard earned cash?

Braai, geliefde land ’n GROOT debat woed tans oor publieke vakansiedae wat óf behoue moet bly, óf geskrap moet word. Maar een vakansiedag wat nie geskrap mag word nie, is Erfenisdag, oftewel Nasionale Braaidag. So ’n paar jaar gelede het ’n jong Stellenbosser besluit dat Erfenisdag die perfekte geleentheid is om die ganse land se verbeelding aan te gryp. Die een ding wat die meeste van ons sekerlik in gemeen het, is braai. En hy het net daar die spryker op die kop geslaan en braai gebruik as ’n manier vir die land om hande te vat. Ja, Jan Scannell, nou beter bekend as Jan Braai, het besluit dat Erfenisdag die perfekte dag is om letterlik die land aan die brand te slaan. ’n Klompie jaar gelede was die land ook byna aan die brand, maar beslis nie met braai nie. Die menigte het in opstand gekom en hul verset teen die jarelange verdrukking van Apartheid. ’n Ware gevaar van burgeroorlog het talle mense inderhaas laat besluit om die oewers van Suid-Afrika te verlaat. Maar in die nagevolg van Nelson Mandela en diegene naby aan hom, het die kwik gedaal en daar is besef dat op een of ander manier kan hierdie veelkleurige en -rassige nasie probeer saamlewe. En volgens my beskeie mening is Jan Braai se konsep van Braaidag op Erfenisdag ’n gevolg van die groot manne wat vrede in Suid-Afrika bewaar het - dus ’n briljante idee. Almal se erfenis sluit op een of ander manier braai in. Ek dink maar net terug aan my Hugenote-voorvaders wat destyds in Franschhoek gebraai het. My eerste voorvader het vanuit Frankryk hierheen as Protestantse vlugteling aangekom. So beland die Hugenote aan die Kaapse kus en word grond gegee in die Franschhoek-vallei, in daardie dae beter bekend as die plek van Olifante. My voorvader, Joubert, se vrou het die skeepsreis nie oorleef nie

en toe hy sy voete hier aan wal sit, het hy sommer dadelik ’n plaaslike vrou gevat. Ons land is ryk aan sulke stories wat ’n nasie uiteindelik gebou het. En dan moet ons glad nie vergeet van die talle kleurryke inheemse mense wat reeds aan wal was toe die setlaars hier aangeland het nie. Die stories van Shaka en Dingaan is maar net ’n handjievol fasinerende verhale van ons plaaslike stamme en daar is nog ’n magdom van hierdie legendes wat in ons volk se aardsgeskiedenis lê. Om terug te kom na Jan Braai se erfeniskonsep: een ding wat ons kleurryke nasie in gemeen het, is seker braai. Vir party is dit ’n daaglikse noodsaaklikheid weens die tekort aan krag, vir ander is dit ’n lekkerheid waarvan hulle nie genoeg kan kry nie. As ’n mens so om ’n braaivuur sit en kyk hoe skiet die vlamme vanuit die hout die lug in, dan is dit ’n byna hipnotiese ervaring. Ek kan in my verbeelding sien hoe my voorvader Joubert op die lappie grond wat aan hom gegee is in die Franschhoek-vallei byna verleë met sy nuwe bruid daardie eerste aand moes vuurmaak en so ook kosmaak daarop. Die vlamme moes om hulle lek, soos hul onsekere toekoms. En ons inheemse mense het groot fees gevier om reuse braaivure in die dae voordat die westerse wêreld hul koninkryke verdeel het. Die tromme is geslaan en die gemeenskap het dikwels feesgevier. Dalk ná ’n groot jag, huweliksfeesviering of die geboorte van ’n kind wat die volk sou lei. Dus dink ek dat daar geen beter manier is om Erfenisdag te vier as om ’n paar houtjies bymekaar te skraap, hulle aan die brand te steek en ’n stukkie vleis oor die kole te gooi en te braai nie. In die woorde van Jan Braai, braai geliefde land - dit maak nie saak wie jy is nie, of waar jy vandaan kom nie.

Why do we have to park in the mud at station? AS a user of the public transport system, I would like to point out the terrible condition of the parking area at Huguenot train station. The red gravel surface of the parking lot gives problems all year around. In summer, when the slightest breeze blows, your car will have a coat of red dust on it, not to mention the engine bay, which looks as if someone has dropped it in a sand box. In winter it gets worse. As soon as we have rain, the gravel washes away and massive puddles form with even bigger potholes. I have witnessed many occasions where someone had no option but to drive through a puddle and ended up getting stuck in the mud. You park your car in the morning, have a day’s rain, and when you get back to your car the evening, it’s standing in the middle of 100 square metres of

water. I am a tax paying South African, paying monthly rates as well as spending R336 per month on a train ticket. So whether that parking area belongs to Metro Rail or the Drakenstein Municipality, all I want to know is: When will a proper tarmac be built? Unsatisfied customer The municipal spokesperson responds: The parking area between the Huguenot Station fence and the Huguenot

Bypass is indeed the property of Drakenstein Municipality. The problems experienced by commuters making use of this area for parking is acknowledged. Future development of the area in question together with the railway infrastructure in respect of all transportation systems and facilities, is at present in the midst of the planning phase. The provision of a permanent surface to the parking area can only be considered in line with this future development. As the area is utilised by a large number of commuters, the gravel parking area will be attended to by placing a new gravel surface. The dust problem unfortunately will persist in the medium term, but it will be attempted to use material with a low dust content to keep the problem to a minimum.

Swak gedrag van Interskole-jeug skok INTERSKOLE 2012 is nou deel van die Paarl se ryke geskiedenis, maar ongelukkig sal dit onthou word vir die verarming van die waardes van die jeug. Interskole bied die geleentheid vir sekere besighede in die dorp om hulle jaarlikse omset ’n hupstoot te gee en die Paarl-rugbyklub is geen uitsondering nie. Weke se beplanning en reëlings bou op tot die grootste skolesportnaweek suid van die ewenaar en was dit nie ’n grote nie! Ek het die Faurestraat-stadion nog nooit so vol gesien nie. Dit is ’n voorreg vir die Paarl om met die twee toprugbyskole in Suid-Afrika te kan spog. Baie

Service game? LAST week, I parked next to a municipal van (CJ 26860) at about 15:30 outside Game in Paarl. There was an employee sitting behind the steering wheel (looking very drowsy). I had a few places to go to and returned to my car at about 16:20 and the van and the employee were still as when I arrived. It is no wonder we have such terrible service, plus we need to ask how long was he there before I had arrived and how much longer did he stay after I left? Will anybody at the municipality follow this up? Disgruntled taxpayer

geluk aan Paarl Gimnasium met hul oorwinning. ’n Spesiale woord van dank aan die 30 werkers en die tien sekuriteitswagte wat die wa deur die drif getrek het en was die stroom Saterdagaand nie sterk nie! Ons moes die ingang van die rugbyklub op ’n stadium sluit omdat die perseel vol was. Dit sou ’n risiko wees om nog mense in te laat. Die volgende oomblik word ons sydeur oopgeskop en minstens 100 jongmense stroom die gebou binne. Hulle het tot die draadheining agter die tent platgetrek om toegang te verkry. Die aggressie was ongelooflik

en die taalgebruik van sekere seuns en dogters sou geharde matrose laat skaamkry. My vraag aan hierdie “hooligans” is bloot: Waarheen is julle op pad? Wil julle eendag bekend staan as die verlore generasie? Waar kom al die aggressie vandaan ? Ek kon duidelik sien dat julle dringend leiding nodig het. Baie dankie aan die jongmense wat hulle goed gedra het, ons vir ’n suksesvolle Interskole bedank het en vir dié wat hulle self net wou geniet. Mark van Eyssen (namens rugbyklubbestuur)

Terug na die swartbord DIE Derby-kragmetings die afgelope weke het my gedwing tot die vraag, wat is die doel van interskole? My verstaan van hierdie jaarlikse gebeurtenis van skole is om sport in skole te bevorder - of hierdie egter nog gebeur is een groot vraag. Skolesport en in besonder interskole, het in ’n verryking van die skoolekonomie geword en nie die ontwikkeling van sport nie. Ek kon nie help om onlangs te lees hoe ’n oudstudent gal braak oor skoolleerders wat rook, drink, vloek en seuns wat met oorbelle

rondloop nie. Die respek en dissipline van leerders het met die jare verdwyn. Leerders is nie meer trots op hul skole nie, dit is liefs ’n geval van watter skool se leerders kan die ongeskikste wees. Baie van die leerders het ook min of geen dissipline en skroom nie om in die openbeer vuil taal te gebruik nie. ’n Wen is ’n wen en verloor is swaar, maar as dit jou trots is, is jy patrioties en kan jy nog wen met respek en dissipline.

Poor road works in Main Street a shock FOLLOWING the nightmare stories of the Wemmershoek road repairs, this has now been followed by an identical never ending story on the Paarl-Klapmuts road. I would like to point out that Main Street south of Paarl has changed from good to something you might encounter while driving in the middle of the bush somewhere. It is now what can only be described as a total mess due to road works. The only asset that the repairers have utilised is a front end loader that is probably hired for the day and a few guys with spades. I travel to Franschhoek daily on the short piece of road between De Soete Inval and the turn off to Franschhoek. This piece of road was actually quite good, no potholes, bumps or unevenness. Since repairs started, it has been a big mess for months. Why was the left hand lane patched and screeded and then it collapsed and was torn up and removed? It is now a gravel road littered with big pieces of concrete. Why did the right hand side, after it was patched collapse to such an extent that the road had to be closed? Why are there no warning lights to warn motorists of danger at night? Excuses, explanations and rhetoric will not solve this, only the appointment of professional companies with the management and resources to do such work to first world

standards. If the Provincial Authorities are too far removed from the local conditions, the local Municipality should represent its constituents and sort out the mess. No notice is taken of individuals by these construction companies, as they are fully aware that they do not have to take individuals seriously.

Dankie ambulans EK wil net dankie sê vir mnre Cupido, Vermeleun en kollegas wat so spoedig opgetree het Maandagnag. Mej Le Roux, Wellington

Ghost Buster Adrian Skea of UWP Engineers responds: The road works on this section of the west bound carriageway of MR189 comprised re-working of a 200 m section of the outer lane and patching on the inner lane. The 200 m section of the outer lane is currently still closed to traffic as the repaired layer cannot currently be primed or re-surfaced due to recent heavy rains and high moisture contents in the layer. The road works on the west bound inner lane comprised base patching. The contractor’s workmanship on these patches was not up to the required standard and they were formally rejected by the resident engineer. These patches also started to ravel and form potholes. The traffic was thus deviated on 16 and 17 August onto a 250 m section of New Eskdale Street for a period of 48 hours while the contractor rectified these rejected base patches at his own cost. Traffic will now remain on the inner west bound lane on this section of MR189 until weather conditions allow the outer lane to be resurfaced.

Hier red hulle lewens EK was onlangs in die noodkamer by Paarl Hospitaal en was beïndruk met wat ek gesien het. Ek is deur die ambulans daarheen geneem omdat ek erge asemnood gehad het weens bronchitis. Ek is gou gehelp en het ’n deel van die nag in die noodsaal deurgebring op suurstof. In die ure wat ek daar was (van 22:00 tot 03:00 die volgende oggend) het ek gesien hoe hard daardie mense werk, en hoe hulle lewens red. Ek het wonderlike behandeling ontvang en haal my hoed af vir die personeel. Ek dink daar is baie mense wat onnodig by die hospitaal opdaag omdat ’n kind koorsig is of iemand maagpyn het. Dit is nie die plek om te gaan met minder ernstige probleme nie - daarvoor het jy die kliniek wat jy môre kan besoek, anders gaan jy heel nag daar sit sonder behandeling, want daar is ernstige siek mense wat gehelp moet word.

on the use of wood shavings and saw dust. Grade 9 learner Fay-Yaaz Ahmed’s study on the influence of colour on learning ability earned him a special prize for the best junior project at the expo in the social and physiological sciences category. He was also one of the seven silver medal winners from Bridge House, along with Megan de Vos, Phillip Myburgh-Marais, Robyn Clark, Janie de Lange, Aimee Fuller and Joshua Ferreira. Bjorn Grapow, Alexandra Borel-Saladin and Maxine Lahner-Todd received bronze medals. Sean Manas, a grade 10 learner of New Orleans Senior Secondary, did not only earn a place in the regional group to participate in Boksburg with his physics project on energy and colour, but also received a silver medal for his sterling work. The Grade 7 duo of Ceachanne Fillies and Michelle Hendricks of Nederburg Primary School received a bronze medal for their medical sciences project. During the event, the learners were given an opportunity to present their projects visually with the aid of posters, while they also had to explain their findings to the judges, who were from Stellenbosch University, Eskom and the education sector, among others.

Land claims are closed

VERJAAR. Madge van der Westhuizen het onlangs haar 102de verjaarsdag gevier. Sy is ’n inwoner van Rusoord-tehuis vir bejaardes. Die ouers van Paarl Primêre Seunskool het vir haar ’n lekker verjaarsdagpartytjie gehou. By haar is leerders (van links) James Alderson, William BourbonLeftley, Dillon Neethling, Jacques de Villers, Keathon Samuels en Wessel Beneke.

THE Department of Rural Development and Land Reform has pointed out that land claims are closed and that people who are currently charging Mbekweni residents R100 to “register” a land claim, are acting fraudulently. According to a spokesperson for the department there are certain residents who claim that they are mandated to reopen land restitution claims for a fee of R100. The Chief Land Claims Commissioner has stated that all people forcibly removed from landsinceJune1913musthavelodgedtheir claims by 31 December 1998. This process has not been reopened for any new claims. People with queries regarding their exclusion during the verification process must contact the department on 021 486 7400.

GESTEEL. Verlede week is ses verdagtes in hegtenis geneem wat vermoedelik betrokke was by verskeie winkeldiefstalle in die Paarl. Wellington polisie het Donderdagoggend inligting ontvang dat verdagtes in dié dorp gewaar is in ’n bloukleurige VW Jetta met ’n CF registrasienommer. Hulle is later op Wellington opgemerk en die polisie het hulle aangekeer. Die voertuig is deursoek en verskillende items, onder andere skoene, handsakke, weggooibabadoeke, ’n DVD-speler, asook haarprodukte is in die motor gevind. Dit het aan die lig gekom dat die items by Jet en Pep winkels gesteel was. Vier vroue en twee mans, almal van Bloekombos in Kraaifontein, is gearresteer vir besit van vermoedelik gesteelde eiendom. Hiér is konstabels Henco Hunt en Justin Appollis met die buit.

GESTEEL. Effektiewe spanwerk van die Paarl polisie het daartoe gelei dat ’n man van Colesberg in hegtenis geneem is vir motordiefstal. Dit kom nadat lede onlangs ’n klag ontvang het van ’n voertuig in die omgewing van Paarl Hospitaal vermoedelik verlate gelaat is. Maar toe die polisie op die toneel aankom om ondersoek in te stel, was die motor weg. Hulle het wel besef dat die beskrywing van die motor wat aan hulle deurgegee is ooreenstem met ’n motor wat op Colesberg gesteel is. Verskeie polisiebeamptes het in die omgewing begin soek na die motor. Dit is opgelet en toe polisie die bestuurder beveel om te stop, het hy probeer wegjaag.

RELIEF. A family’s dreams went up in smoke after their house burned down in Franschhoek North recently. Within a couple of minutes a family of four lost their house as well as their belongings and memories. When the Fire Department arrived on the scene there was nothing that they could do to save the house that took less than 10 minutes to be destroyed by the flames. The Lions Club of Franschhoek came to the rescue of the Dywili family with clothes, food, blankets and kitchen supplies.

Pêreltjie van die maand Jani Schlebusch is 18 jaar oud en ’n leerder by Labori Hoërskool. Sy is die onderhoofmeisie asook die hoofmeisie van haar koshuis. Ek is gek is oor my hokkie, want ons o.19A-span is soos ’n familie. Ek’s trots op my skool en gaan dit Jani Schlebusch vreeslik mis as ek die skool moet verlaat Ek staan nie vir fotograwe terug as dit kom om foto’s te neem nie en behoort in ons skool se fotografieklub. Ek is ’n groot boekwurm en hou veral van Engelse boeke lees. Ek kyk graag movies en luister na musiek. My gunsteling musiekgroepe is The Uses, The Rasmus, AFI, Him, Bullet for my Valentine. Ek hou van gesellige tyd spandeer met vriende omdat ek glo hulle maak ’n belangrike deel van my lewe uit. Ek is spontaan van geaardheid en glo in waardes en norme. Ek glo almal moet mekaar respekteer en hou nie van onregverdigheid nie. Ek steur my glad nie aan skinderstories nie - mense wat skinder het ’n lae selfbeeld. Ek hou niks van Jungle Oats pap vroeg eet nie en haat dit met ’n passie as ek vroeg moet wakker word. Ek bewonder Charlize Theron, want sy ploeg terug in Suid-Afrika en ek sal daarvan hou om in haar voetspore te volg. Ek beoog om volgende jaar Aktuarieel of Regte te swot. Ek is trots dat ek tot dusver dux-leerder is - die opvoeders en my vriende se ondersteuning beteken vir my ontsettend baie.

Perdeberg shines SIMPLY THE BEST. The winners of the Santam Shiraz/Chenin Challenge stand here proudly with their awards. At left is KWV winemaker Izele van Blerk and second right is Liani de Wet of Windmeul. In the centre is Faizel Samuels of Mallasat Vineyards who was crowned cellar assistant of the year. With them are (second left) Annelize Stroebel of Paarl Vintners, Riaan Louw of Santam and Stephen Richardson of Mellasat, also chairperson of Paarl Vintners.

KWV, Windmeul top notch THE winners of the Paarl Santam Shiraz/Chenin Challenge were announced on Wednesday 22 August at a gala dinner at the Grande Roche. KWV continued its award-winning run with two wines in the Shiraz top three, including first place, and two wines in the Chenin Blanc top ten. Fairview ranked for three wines in the Shiraz top ten, including second place in the top three. Windmeul, Perdeberg and Nederburg were ranked first to third in the Chenin Blanc category. Wines of richness and elegance, with a heightened balance between fruit ripeness and acidity, characterised the entries in the challenge. Shiraz class panel chair Nico Vermeulen said that “rich, fresh, vibrant wines made in a newer style” was the panel’s shared opinion of the wines. “To achieve this kind of elegance in a warmer area is a good reflection on the winemakers, many of whom are young

and up-and-coming,” Nico said. “Paarl’s Shiraz wines show a great versatility, and general potential in a category that I’ve always believed can be South Africa’s best.” Chenin class panel chair Ken Forrester found “a better balance throughout” among the Chenin Blanc entries, with “better phenolic ripeness and a brisk acidity, tending towards a mineral edge.” The winning wines were chosen unanimously, with relatively little discussion among the panel, Ken said. “Generally the better wines come from the cooler sites, where elevation plays a part while older vines contribute to concentration.” In general, Ken said, there was great suitability in Paarl to the Shiraz category; however he said “where elevation and aspect come to bear, there are some excellent, highly sought-after Chenin Blanc vineyards.” Consumer tastings will be held in conjunction with the WineX in Cape Town in November.

THE Perdeberg Winery in Agter Paarl produced the Champion Young Wine of the Paarl Region with its 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon/ Shirazblend.ThisisthefirsttimethatPerdeberg has received the sought-after Absa Trophy. The grapes for the winning wine came from selected vineyard blocks of dryland vineyards on two farms owned by shareholders of Perdeberg. The grapes that were harvested in March areofoutstandingqualitywithsmallberries, intense colour and flavour and a good tannin structure, as a result of the late ripening process. The winning wine is definitely a team effort, according to cellarmaster, Albertus Louw: “My team consisting of two wine-makers, Riaan Möller and Carla Herbst and a viticulturist, Jaco Engelbrecht, played a most important role. The trophy means a lot for us and for Perdeberg Winery, because it labels us as a quality wine producer.” The Cabernet Sauvignon/Shiraz winning wine which is presently undergoing maturation, is destined for Perdeberg’s Reserve range. It was also a class winner at the SA Show, as was their wooded Petit Verdot. KWV also collected a haul of medals at the regional event, winning the categories Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, white blend, Pi-

notage, non-muscat fortified wine (the 2012 Pineau de Laborie) and most points with five entries. At the SA show they won the classes Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc (wooded). Wellington produced the top Wellington wine in the Paarl region with their Cabernet Franc, which also won its class at the national show. At the national competition they also won the class Grenache. Other trophy winners at the Paarl show were Boland (best natural sweet white wine, best other white cultivar/wooded Viognier, and best dry rosé), Landskroon (best Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon), Amistad (best Malbec, and the champion Franschhoek wine), and Tulbagh (best wooded Cabernet Sauvignon which was also the best wine from the Tulbagh area). The aim of the competition is to judge the qualityofwineswithintheyearofproduction before they are finally blended and bottled. In this way, the industry can give recognition totheproductioncapabilitiesofawinecellar. This year, a total of 149 producers competed in the two-tiered SA Young Wine Show, which includes eight regional competitions with separate awards ceremonies, followed by the national championship. The roots of the event were laid in 1833. Entries are adjudicated by specialist panels of judges.

Sporttelbord * Scoreboard RUGBY * Boland lost again The Ford Pumas overturned an eight-point deficit on their way to a narrow 36-33 (half-time 13-18) win over the Boland Kavaliers in their Absa Currie Cup First Division match at Boland Park in Worcester last Friday. * Violets net-net aan die verloorkant Violets het die afgelope naweek teen Rangers met 13-14 verloor. Die tweede span wen 15-3 en die derde span wen 6-7. * Riverstones klop liga voorlopers Die eerste rugbyspan van Riverstones het Saterdag daarin geslaag om Vineyards op die Daljosafat-stadion met 17-6 te klop. Die eerste helfte is gekenmerk deur hegte verdediging deur albei spanne. Jacques Hendricks (skrumskakel) slaag vir Riverstones met twee strafskoppe en die rustydtelling was 6 elk. Die tweede helfte is gekenmerk deur beter dissipline en goeie aanvallende spel deur Riverstones en hul voorspelers het met uitstekende samespel vir Vineyards oorheers. Vineyards het geen antwoord gehad vir die kraglopies van Lance Benjamin (slot), Alfredo Adams (slot) en Arnold Kika (agsteman) nie. Jacques Hendricks het met nog twee strafskoppe geslaag. Ná goeie samespel deur Riverstones se voor- en agterspelers, het Dominique Adriaanse (flank) afgerond met ’n drie vir Stones. Die doelskop was egter mis, wat die eindtelling op 17-6 te staan gebring het. Lance Benjamin (kaptein) is welverdiend aangewys as die speler van die wedstryd. Riverstones

se 2de span verloor 18-0, en die 3de span verloor 8-5. * Blues neem die voortou Laer Paarl (Blues) het Saterdag die voortou geneem in die Paarlstreek nadat hy Simondium met 64-0 geklop het en ’n waardevolle bonuspunt ingesamel het. Simondium het met swak verdediging toegelaat dat Blues 10 drieë gedruk het waarvan Delwayn Cornelissen 7 verdoel het. Blues se voor- en agterspelers het mekaar goed aangevul en Simondium se verdediging deeglik beproef. Blues se agterspelers het ten spyte van die reën en nat veld die bal goed hanteer. Marco Prinsloo, wat ’n reuse wedstryd gehad het, is as speler van die wedstryd aangewys. Blues se tweedes wen 1710 en die derdes verloor 7-8. WEDVLUGDUIWE * Wellington Resiesduifklub Hanover Sondag 26 Augustus - 1 H Joseph, 2,3,4,9 en 10 D Perrins, 5 Jasper & Kobus, 6 en 7 Arendse Lofts en 8 I Laubscher. Richmond Sondag 26 Augustus - 1,8 en 9 D Perrins, 2 I Laubscher, 3,4,5 en 7 Arendse Lofts, 6 D Solomon en 10 Jasper en Kobus. HOCKEY * Paarl Club The Paarl men’s first hockey team secured another win over Pinelands at Hartleyvale with a 5-1 victory. The first goal came within the first two minutes of the game by Donavon (Mr Biceps) Caldecott, but Pinelands equalised minutes later. Xavier (Backstick) Lawrence again lived up to his name and scored the second goal off his backstick beating the Pinelands goalkeeper.

With the score 2-1 at half-ime, Paarl showed Pinelands who was the best team on the field and Pinelands got hit by a more composed and settled Paarl team in the second half. Pinelands hit back time and time again, but with Paarl’s solid defence and a rock of a goalkeeper just could not break through. It did not take Paarl long in the second half to secure a short corner, and with Jacques (the Jackal) Saayman nearly decapitating the Pinelands goalkeeper off a deflecting ball from Caldecott, the Jackal scored the third goal. Paarl continued their dominance and visited Pinelands’ half with Lawrence showing excellent ball skills, beating two defenders before passing the ball into the circle to Zaayman to score the fourth goal. With ten minutes left Paarl secured another short corner in which Caldecott recovered the ball and showed what he was made of, outskilled four defenders and the goalkeeper of Pinelands scoring the fifth and final goal for Paarl. The ladies suffered another loss, this time against UCT. UCT was simply the better of the two teams, leaving little room for error and scoring four goals. Paarl just could not capitalise on the opportunities that were created. At half-time the score was 3-0 to UCT. UCT scored their fourth goal in the second half.

Eerste kolhou vir Elsa

BAIE gholfspelers sou dit nie verlede Saterdag op die gholfbaan waag as gevolg van die gure weer nie, maar Elsa Albertyn (62) van die Paarl was op haar pos by die Wellington-gholfklub en het oudergewoonte aan die Saterdag-kompetisie deelgeneem. Die deelname was op die ou einde die moeite werd, want op die 12de putjie slaan sy vir die eerste keer in haar lewe ’n kolhou - die eerste vrou in die geskiedenis van dié gholfklub wat dié prestasie behaal. Elsa, die dameskaptein by die Wellingtongholfklub, vertel dat sy byna kon voorspel het dat iets groots gaan gebeur toe sy op die 11de putjie ’n voëltjie (een minder as baansyfer) aangeteken het. Op die 12de putjie (syfer 3) het sy die ses yster geneem en die bal met een hou in die gat geslaan. In gholfterme het sy ’n arend aangeteken. Elsa, wat al vir 14 jaar gholf speel, speel vanaf ’n 22-voorgee en het Saterdag ’n telling van 95 behaal. Dit beteken dat sy op haar voorgee drie meer as baansyfer gespeel het. Haar versekeringsmaatskappy moes ook R2000 opdok vir dié gelukskoot, maar Elsa vertel dat die geluk ook hier aan haar kant was, want daar was as gevolg van die slegte weer nie baie spelers op die gholfbaan nie en dus nie baie vir wie sy op die “19de putjie” ’n drankie moes koop nie.

Sponsor signs new agreement THE current sponsor of Boland Rugby, the Regent Insurance Group, has announced the signing of a new sponsorship with Boland Rugby at Boland Park in Worcester. The new sponsorship agreement signed last week extends the partnership from 1 July 2013 to 30 June 2014 with a further renewal option for 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2015. This has been a rewarding sponsorship for both stakeholders and Regent has committed to continuing its investment both with Boland Rugby (Pty) Ltd and the surrounding community. “From the outset in June 2011, Regent was quite keen for the relationship with the Boland Rugby community. Our mission has always

been to become a partner to Boland Rugby and not just a sponsor,” said Jurie Strydom, CEO of Regent Insurance Group.

SIGNING. Last week Regent signed their new sponsorship agreement with the Boland Rugby Union. From left are Piet Bergh (CEO of Boland Rugby), Francois Davids (President of Boland Rugby), Jurie Strydom (CEO of Regent Insurance) and Reginald Haman (Regent’s executive general manager).

Francois Davids, President of the Boland Rugby Union, expressed his appreciation, saying, “This is a humbling gesture for Regent to extend their partnership with Boland Rugby. We are very pleased with this development. We will continue to be the team player you certainly can count on. “Since coming on board in 2011 as the ‘Title Sponsor’ of Boland Rugby’s professional team, Regent has made a massive impact in the Boland community. “Not only have they given the Boland Cavaliers and the Boland Stadium a more professional ‘look and feel’, they have also made massive contributions in terms of social responsibility and local business support,” Davids said.

Gelykopstryde vir Labori IN die interskolestryd die afgelope naweek tussen Labori Hoerskool en Bosmansdam van Bothasig (Kaapstad) was daar heelwat gelykopuitslae, maar in die meerderheid wedstryde het die Paarliete die septer geswaai. Soos die o.16A-meisieshokkiespan (1-1) en o.16A-seunshokkiespan (0-0) in ’n gelykopstryd gewikkel was, het die o.19A-netbal (20-20) en die o.19A-rugbyspan (17-17) dieselfde gedoen.

Die ander uitslae is: Rugby: o.14A (Laborie wen 17-0), o.15B Laborie verloor 12-7, o.15A (Labori wen 62-0), o.16A (Laborie wen 14-3) en o.19B (Labori wen 25-0). Netbal: o.14A (Labori wen 22-9), o.14B (Labori wen 12-8), o.16A (Labori verloor 13-9), o.16B (Labori wen 11-9), o.19C (Labori wen 17-7) en o.19B (Labori verloor 18-4). Hokkie: o.19A-meisies (Labori wen 4-0) en o.19A-seuns (Labori wen 1-0).
