Letter via the Editor
I wish to respond to the letter published last week regarding the new by-laws, stating that all dogs need to be on a leash, when taken for walks. I agree fully with the law, as I have witnessed the following 1st hand - dog fights (a dog even lost his eye), poop on the beaches, not picked up but just covered with sand, as well as toddlers traumatised. The last time I took my little ones to the beach, I ended up carrying them. Surely we do not want to compare our animals with those in Kwano or New Horizons? PDP houses are built with no fencing, which is very costly. Would you really like to see every dog tied up on a 1m chain or piece of wire, with no food, water or shelter, all day long? I don't think so! Heidi NEED FLYERS? COME TO THE PRINT SHOP 044-533 2530 LONG TERM RENTAL. Upmarket 3 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom house in secure Brackenridge Estate to let.

Set in the early 1990s, John ''Spud'' Milton has embarked on his first year at an elite, boys-only private school. Cursed with parents from well beyond the lunatic fringe, a senile granny, and a dormitory full of strange characters, Spud has to forge a new life for himself in this foreign and sometimes hostile environment. He takes his first tentative steps along the path toward manhood, armed with only his wits and his diary. We go from illegal night swimming to the cricket field, to ghost busting to teacher baiting. We peek inside his mind as he struggles to come to terms with love, friendship and complete insanity. CAST: John Cleese, Tanit Phoenix, Troye Sivan, Jeremy Crutchley, Alex McGregor, Genna Blair, Sven Ruygrok, Aaron McIlroy HARRY POTTER 7 - Action, adventure The beginning of the end. After narrowly escaping to a safe house with his two friends, Harry has to go on the run to avoid being killed. The trio trek around the wilderness after a brief visit to the Ministry of Magic, and spend their time looking for mysterious artifacts needed to defeat Voldemort. Since they are now getting on in years, youthful hormones rush to the surface leading to jealousy and confrontation. All will be revealed in the showdown next year. Cast: Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, Ralph Fiennes
DESPICABLE ME Animation In a twist on the usual 'mad scientist wants to rule the world' scenario, our 'hero' here is such a mad scientist, who merely wants to steal the moon using a powerful shrinking ray. The problem is that his arch-nemesis currently has the shrinking ray, and so the plans to steal it begin... and fail. Then he sees how three young girls selling cookies are able to get into any house. He adopts them, meaning to use them for his plans, but being a dad brings out a side in him he never knew he had ...

Jamie Jupiter
Singer-songwriter Jamie Jupiter draws on a wide variety of cultures and musical influences. His original songs have touched many hearts, while his accomplished musical skills create a variety of moods and grooves. Jamie plays an impressive array of musical instruments: from the bluesy combo of guitar and harmonica to a long and unpronounceable list of African instruments. While this fusion of roots, blues, and Afro-funk creates a deliciously spicy sound, his raunchy harmonica has been known to make women blush; his lyrics to have drawn silent tears from burly men. Having won a Fleur du Cap Award for Best Cabaret in 2009 with the cast of Angels on Horseback, Jamie is also an ex-member of Cape Town glam-rockers, The Honeymoon Suites, who achieved cult status in the 1990s as an enigmatic art-band sensation.

Amaza Ntshanga on the World Aids Day in Plett
As the 1st of December in known as the international world Aids day, as usually Plett had also play its roll on a campaign to fight and acknowledge HIV and Aids as department of health in partnership with Bitou Municipality hosted this event on last Wednesday in town where That’s It offered VCT (volunteering counseling and test) to the public. On Saturday the 4th of December Bitou Local Aids Council had hosted another one which was the biggest as it attracted a number of people at Kwanokuthula sports ground. Although the event started very late, local DJ’s who were leaded by DJ Mpura and DJ Bucs kept the audience dancing while That’s It also kept them busy as there were queues of people who wanted to do tests as reward was the beautiful T-shirt form Bitou Local Aids council, at the back printed “I’m responsible, we are responsible, Bitou is responsible” more than 100 people tested that day. There were those who had tested for the first time, some were jumping up and down in celebration of their result, I felt like it is the good thing to know your status so I decided to join the queues, now I know my status. At last after many hours of waiting, one of the community active and brave lady Babalwa Qambatha who was the program director had started the event by calling the lady with a beautiful voice Nonkosi Bam to sing the national anthem and guest of honor was welcomed by Nkosiyabo Lose who introduced him as the favorite Amaza Ntshanga from Umhlobo Wenene FM, the presenter of afternoon drive show called Ndithathe undibeke also popular with his everyday quiz ndingubani ke. Before Amaza made his speech there was a documentary that was screened of an emotional story from the community about two young ladies who are Aids orphans. Then it was Amaza, that guy can talk it was like I listened to a live radio, unfortunately I could not only listen on what was said but on how he said it, the pace, energy and he caught my attention. He encouraged young people to abstain, be faithful or condomise, he also said the biggest challenge is the fact that people don’t want to take responsibility as if Aids is for certain people although it affects everybody rich and poor if you are not infected you are affected. Brenda Duma said they had noticed that men do wand to do tests so early November they decided to do a campaign targeted 1000 men to volunteer counseling and test and by Saturday 838 men had tested. Bitou Executive Mayor Lulama Mvimbi had

Restoration of Our Timber Shed.
Johann Jacob Jerling obtained a contract to build a timber shed near what is today the skiboat launching beach, where the huge boles could be stored until it was possible to ship them out. This “Houtschuur” had to be 200 feet long, 22 feet wide and 13 feet high and all the woodwork had to be of yellowwood. Johann Jacob owed this considerable betterment of his fortunes to the strong demand for timber for a variety of purposes at the Cape, where it was needed for the construction of wharves, bridges, ox wagons, buildings and other essentials. Today the timber shed, twice partially restored in the past 200 years, is a National Monument and among Plettenberg bay’s oldest historical sites. The walls were made of huge blocks of stone, fitted together without any cement. The strong but untrained workers used only a simple block-and-tackle to fit the stones into place. The sturdy walls were then covered with a slightly sloping reed roof to keep the timber dry. Unfortunately one clause in Jerling’s contract specified that the timber work must be of yellowwood, timber that is not durable for any length of time, when exposed to the elements. Within only 16 years it was reported by the next official to come this way that the reed roof had fallen in, and that the yellowwood lintels were collapsing, especially on the south side under the koppie. This meant that the structure had soon become a useless building. On the 29th of September 2010 the Plettenburg bay local municipality appointed a historical precinct advisory com-
mittee to give proposals for the restoration and preservation of the timber shed. At the council meeting on the 8th of December the committee’s proposals was favorably agreed to by the municipality. The next step for the committee is an appeal to the National Heritage council for approval of the restoration of the timber shed. The plans for the restoration of the timber shed are as follows: Stone from the fallen walls will be used for reconstruction. This work must be done by a skilled stonemason, so that the restoration work is identical to the original stone walls. This is possible, and can be seen on site. In 1983, reconstruction of the southern wall was done, and it is a perfect match to the original wall. The original roof was a flat roof and was defective from the start. Thus was decided that the roof will be reconstructed as a “modern” flat roof, using locally treated timber and modern technology, with a touch of the old use of “vleiriet” for esthetic purposes. Resulting in a modern flat roof that will not leak and that will only be visible from above. Making the building user friendly will require for it to have a floor. The original opening will be upgraded and doors and shutter will be fitted, once again local timber will be used. It is planned to reconstruct the doors and windows so that they reflect the style used in the 1700. Hinges and other iron work will be done by local blacksmiths or the steel industry. On the inside of the doors and windows, weather doors and windows will be fitted to contain the elements. We want to stress that all of the above is visualized and by no
means the final plans. There are many talented people in Plett, and we would like to have the communities input through the whole restoration process We Endeavour to source all material for this project from local interested parties ei. Timber, from timber industries; Sand from sand quarries ect. Initial response to this project was overwhelmingly positive. It is our aim to handle as little cash as possible. But cash will still be needed. After the restoration process is finished we, the people of Plett will be the custodians of a beautiful historical venue set in one of the most envied sites in SouthAfrica. It will be user friendly, and can be used for a number of activities such as: Cultural exhibitions, Art, Seminars, wedding venues ect. On the side maybe a tea garden with pre-prepared goodies by local cooks in a botanical garden setting, can be opened to the public. No kitchens, no extractor fans, no smells. As this is a nonprofit venue all revenue generated must solely go to the upkeep of the building and local children’s or other charities. A few last comments from the committee: We want to stress once again that this is only guidelines, we want to be transparent in all that we do. We are non Racial, non political and non profitable. We would like your participation, comments and proposals. This could become the most talked about project in South-Africa. We can do it!

Intergrity
There was a young man by the nickname of Sparky, he trimmed hedges and dug ditches, Although he was poor he did not desire to have riches.
This was because, so the story went- No matter what Sparky was always content. Food might be expensive, the weather might be cold Sparky never complained we were told. He always said “change what you can, what you can’t change just bear.” That helped Sparky get by with never a care. For “why should I grumble and murmur?” He said “If I cannot eat meat I can always eat bread.” Should somebody wrong him - he did not seek revengeHe just said “it belongs to God to avenge!” So, happily Sparky went through his life- Not so for many who suffer great pain and strife, Despite all their many possessions and all of their riches they were never as happy as Sparky who trimmed hedges and dug ditches!

So in stepped Mike at Pop it Inn, Wittedrift to help us out with a garage as temporary storage space. A huge thanks to both Mr Bouwer at WHS and Mike at Pop it Inn our early Christmas presents.

PAWS Appeal
PAWS is appealing to all residents of, and visitors to, Plettenberg Bay to respect the Plett By-law regarding fireworks. Fireworks of any kind are banned in the Bitou Municipal area and people caught letting off fireworks will be subject to a fine of R1,000. Please think of the effect that the fireworks will have on our animals. New By-laws have recently been introduced into the Bitou Municipal area regarding the soiling/fouling of our streets and beaches by your pets. Again, if you are caught allowing your animals to soil/foul our public areas without removing the offending deposit, you will be subject to a fine of R500. Doggie poo bags are available at all the Veterinary Clinics or supply shops in town at a cost of 20c each or you can buy a bundle of 20 for R5.00. All monies collected will go to PAWS. We really appreciate your support on these important issues.

Letter via the Editor Happy Christmas vs Season’s Greetings I read with amusement Ms Howitt’s protective claim to Christmas vs Season’s Greetings. Is the lady unaware that other faiths also have celebrations during the Festive Season? Eg. The Jewish Chanukah started early thIs year (from 2nd to 9th December); both Reconciliation Day and the Islamic Muharram fall on 16th December and of course the Christian Christmas falls on 25th December (although most biblical scholars agree that this could not possibly have been Christ’s date of birth...) so take it easy and have a wonderful Festive Season and a very blessed Christmas.

Letter via the Editor I have just finished reading the latest, 2 December, issue of What’s New in Plett and frankly am flabbergasted at the attitudes of some. In particular the attitudes around the walking of dogs, wearing of seat belts, washing aircraft, recently the issue of working out of your home and business rights. Have we now decided that because some break the law it is OK for everybody to do so instead of embracing the laws and doing our bit to enforce them. I too have dogs that I take for walks, but will do so in the confines of the law. You dare to criticise watering of vegetables because you can’t wash your aeroplane. It is Ok to run a business from your garage that is not suitable to the environment. So based on your attitudes, if someone from Kwanokuthula murders, rapes its ok if we in the suburbs of Plett follow suite. In your mind it is OK to block up the courts so that serious crimes are not processed. Ask the families and friends of those recently murdered and assaulted in Plett what they think of that. The laws on seat belts, dogs, businesses are no different to others in our country, so what makes you so special that you do not have to abide to them. I just bet you sit around with your family and friends debating the criminals and crime issues in our country. Do not forget to include yourselves in that discussion because it makes you equally a criminal. Get over yourselves and help to be an example of a law abiding citizen and make a difference James Boulder

Celebrate 16 December
As the countdown to the end of the year draws near, we have much to celebrate. In South Africa, with our rich diversity of cultures and religions, we commemorate a number of important dates in December. “There are few countries which dedicate a national public holiday to reconciliation. But then there are few nations with our history of enforced division, oppression and sustained conflict. And fewer still, which have undergone such a remarkable transition to reclaim their humanity.” – Nelson Mandela. Historically, December 16 holds tremendous significance on our calendar. Prior to 1994, two separate battles were originally commemorated on this day: Afrikaners celebrated the Day of the Covenant, remembering when Voortrekkers defeated a Zulu army at the Battle of Blood
River in 1838. African National Congress activists commemorated the day in 1961 when it launched Umkhonto we Sizwe, the party’s military wing, with the purpose of overthrowing the apartheid government. When Former President Nelson Mandela signed South Africa’s new Constitution into place on International Human Rights Day on the 10 December 1996, the 16 December was named an official public holiday and became known as the Day of Reconciliation in South Africa. December 16 is our opportunity as the people of South Africa to demonstrate our humanity and reach out to others from different cultures, colours and religions. It is the time when each individual commits to treating others with compassion, respect and dignity, resulting in increased harmony within South Africa and creating a successful and peaceful nation. Awesome SA
