SOCIAL GATHERINGS: LEADS TO SPREAD
Covid infections flare up KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels
A
s more people are moving around and economic activity is allowed under level 1 restrictions, smaller clusters of infections flare up in Dunoon, Parklands and surrounds. Many of these flare-ups originate at social gatherings which can be anything from a party, religious gathering or even in a workplace – any place where large numbers of people congregate that is crowded, has poor ventilation and social distancing cannot be maintained. This is according to Natalie Watlington,
communications officer at the provincial health department, saying that close indoor contact and relaxed measures of prevention in communities lead to the rapid spread of the virus. “We call these ‘super-spreader’ events. While some of these events are among young people, who are less at risk of severe illness, it is crucial to remember that this can spread rapidly to the vulnerable and elderly in our communities. “There is also no evidence to suggest that young people and children are immune to the virus. While they may not contract such severe illness, they do contract it and they do pass it on,” Watlington says.
With the summer and traditional holiday season, Watlington adds that there is a need to socialise and see other people. “Ensure you connect safely with other people and stay as safe as possible when leaving your house by avoiding possible super-spreader events. “When going out, always wear your mask and avoid crowded places, close-contact settings, and confined enclosed spaces with poor ventilation. “Do not become complacent. Even when you feel safe between friends and family, you should continue to wear your mask and maintain a distance of at least 1,5m from other people,” she says.
The provincial health department says that drinking increases the chances of people touching, taking off their masks and talking loudly, all of which increase the chances of the Covid-19 spread. “It is the season to be jolly but to avoid the folly. We urge members of the public to please drink responsibly,” Watlington told TygerBurger.
Take it outside Watlington says that as more research has become available, it has become clear that the virus’ rapid spread in particles is a contributing factor. V To page 2

‘Kill your speed, not a pedestrian’ Don’t drink or text when you drive. Don’t read this newspaper while you drive. You may just save your or someone else’s life. The provincial transport department is once again appealing to road users to excercise basic safety tips. In a new campaign, Safely Home, they’re encouraging motorists to be vigilant and pedestrians to make themselves visible to motorists. “A high percentage of pedestrians killed on the road who were tested for alcohol had a blood alcohol content (BAC) of more than 0.2g per 100ml of blood, which is four times the legal limit for drivers,” Jandré Bakker, head of communication at the department, says. “Male pedestrian fatalities are more likely to have a high BAC than females. Young males are the category of pedestrian most likely to die after drinking, with the highest risk being those aged 20 – 29 years.
“More than three times as many pedestrians die on Saturdays than on Wednesdays.” He calls on pedestrians to stay away from freeways and busy roads, especially at night and after consuming alcohol. “Always wear high visibility clothing, particularly in the evening and in bad weather. Walk in groups when possible.” He says pedestrians are almost always killed when they are hit by cars travelling more than 60km/h. Slowing down will give you more time to avoid pedestrians. If you are travelling more slowly and you collide with a pedestrian, the pedestrian is more likely to survive.” The department gives the following tips: . Put the phone down and drive. Focus on what’s important, your driving. . Slow down. Speed kills. A 5% reduction in the average speed would reduce fatal crashes by 30%. Kill your speed, not a pedestrian.

The following should be done: Fresh air and good ventilation are important factors to consider in safety and prevention of the spread. Particularly in public transport, office or work environments and other areas where people congregate, it is important to keep in mind that fresh air is our friend. Keep windows and doors open where possible to ensure a good flow of air in all venues. Outside events remain a safer option with safe distancing and control of numbers being observed. If you are socialising, try to meet up with a friend outside and maintain a distance of 1,5 metres and wear your mask. “During the Covid-19 peak, many people put healthcare activities on hold. It is important that we return to healthcare safety and look after our general physical and mental well-being. Where possible, we urge people to use the “safer” option such as having chronic medication delivered to their home and to make use of telephonic health services where possible. However, where it

Continue to follow the five golden rules The provincial health department urges communities to remain vigilant and continue to wear masks when outside by following the five golden rules: . Wash your hands often. . Don’t touch your face and wear your mask. . Keep 1,5m apart. . Cover your cough. . Stay home when sick. Watlington adds, “Despite our wanting to return to normal, and despite the relative success of our Covid-19 response, it is important to keep up our prevention behaviour. Covid-19 is not gone; we need to work together to minimise a second wave.”
Water disruptions in Montegue Gardens The City of Cape Town’s water and sanitation department planned conducting zero pressure tests on the main water supply to the Montague Gardens industrial area yesterday and this morning. This was to be done from 19:00 on Tuesday, 10 November to 02:00 on Wednesday, 11 November. According to the City, zero-pressure testing is part of the installation process for pressure management technology. “It involves cutting off water supply to a particular supply zone to see if there are any unmapped inflows that need to be taken into account before smart pressure reducing valves are installed. Businesses are advised to store water in clean, sealed containers for use during this period and to ensure that their taps are closed during this period to avoid water loss or damage when the supply is restored,” the City says in a statement.

Trafficker gets jail time, 10 yrs
ER24 medics arrived on the accident scene in Sunset Beach on Sunday.
Taxi and car collide leaving four injured, taxi driver flees KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels Four people were left injured on Sunday when a taxi and a light motor vehicle collided on the R27 in Sunset Beach. According to Russel Meiring, ER24 communications officer, ER24 medics arrived on the scene at 07:33 on Sunday to find the light motor vehicle against the Armco barriers while a taxi had come to a stop on its side, a short distance away. “Medics assessed the four patients from the light motor vehicle and found that they had sustained minor to moderate injuries. Fortunately, no serious injuries or fatalities were found,” Meiring said.
The patients were treated and transported to a nearby day-clinic. Meiring said that the driver of the taxi and its several passengers were not found on the scene. Local authorities were on the scene for further investigations. A motorist who was on the scene said on social media that its irresponsible and a crime to leave an accident scene. “Accidents happen so quickly and can strike anyone. However, to not own up to the responsibility is another thing. The driver of the taxi was nowhere to be found. I hope the police can track the driver down so he can take responsibility for his actions,” the post reads.
Ten criminals have been found guilty at the Cape Town High Court on Friday 6 November on various charges for their role in trafficking young women and minors. The syndicate, which ran a brothel in Milnerton, Table View, Big Bay and Bellville was arrested in February 2017. Camilla de Waal Rossouw (32), one of the main suspects, pleaded guilty to 11 charges in the Cape Town High Court. According to a statement issued by the Hawks, this follows her conviction handed down by the same court on 28 0ctober. “She pleaded guilty on an array of 11 charges which included kidnapping a minor, trafficking in person for sexual purposes, assault, keeping of a brothel, living on the proceeds of prostitution and extortion involving over R3 million,” the statement reads. De Waal Rossouw was the tenth suspect sentenced for her involve-
ment, which recruited young females (as well as minors) to be groomed and sexually exploited. TygerBurger previously reported (“Brothel syndicate suspects in court”, 2 August 2017) that the suspects were arrested after the Hawks, Crime Intelligence, metro police and law enforcement raided several suspicious addresses around Parklands, Table View and Milnerton. According to the Hawks’ statement, the victims were all deprived of their freedom, assaulted and forced to partake in criminal activities such as shoplifting, housebreaking and extortion. “This is also a mile stone case of trafficking in persons and a conviction that includes the Prevention of Organised Crime Act, as she was also charged with racketeering along with several other suspects,” the statement reads. Rossouw was sentenced to ten years, suspended for five years.
Suspects arrested at post office Five suspects were arrested for armed robbery at a post office at the Dunoon Post Office on Wednesday 4 November. According to police spokesperson Col Andrè Traut, the vigilance and quick response of members attached to the Western Cape Flying Squad and the K9 Unit led to the arrest of four male suspects and a female suspect soon after a robbery was perpetrated at the Dunoon Post Office. “The members reacted on a radio broad-
cast regarding the robbery and searched the immediate vicinity for the getaway vehicle, which was subsequently spotted on the N1 freeway. The vehicle was pulled over close to the Jip de Jager off ramp and all five suspects were apprehended,” Traut said. Three unlicensed firearms, ammunition and an undisclosed amount of cash were confiscated. The suspects are due to make their court appearance to face the charges against them.

ix dogs of Fisantekraal Animal Welfare (FAW) are now more than ever urgently looking for forever homes. This came after Uitsig Animal Rescue Centre on a farm near Melkbosstrand has now finally been given notice on Saturday 17 October and all 75 remaining dogs (including FAW’s six dogs) must be off the property by 17 January. According to Jenni Davis, spokesperson for FAW, they have been trying to rehome these dogs for years. In a post on the Facebook page of Uitsig Animal Rescue Centre a spokesperson of the organisaton said their landlord delivered a notice of termination of the lease agreement on Saturday 17 October, giving them three months to vacate the farm and relocate the animals presently housed on the premises. “We’re at our wit’s end because we don’t really know what else we can do to home them in two months when we haven’t had any luck in years,” Davis says. “Understandably, now, with the economic fall-out caused by lockdown, it is not an easy time to rehome any animals, let alone older shelter dogs,” she says. FAW has waived its normal adoption fee for those six dogs. “However, we are encouraging people to ‘name their fee’ – bearing in mind the dogs are sterilised, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, which all costs money and we are a welfare relying on donations,” she says. “I must just emphasise that there will still be strict procedures in place regarding the application, home checks and contract. People might wonder why, if we are ‘desperate’ to rehome them, do we make it ‘harder’ for people by doing a home check. “They are great dogs! They’re not a ‘problem’ that needs to go away. They deserve us making the effort to find the good homes that they should have. Also, we need to make

To that end, we also provide assistance with a dog behaviourist,” she says. According to Wilsia Metz of Uitsig Animal Rescue Centre the public response to their plight has been positive. Most dogs will be taken in by Fallen Angels, another animal welfare organisation down the road. “We are homing many dogs and finding fosters for many more. Uitsig will remain involved with these dogs, even when they are with Fallen Angels, to help find homes for them and make sure that they have the required veterinary care. “We have had many offers of homes for dogs, as well as generous donations of food and funds for veterinary care. “With Fallen Angels being located just

Rotary club celebrates eradication of polio in Africa Rotary Club of Century City recently hosted an awareness and information stand at the Century City Fresh Produce Market to celebrate being polio-free in Africa. This after the World Health Organization (WHO) announced that transmission of the wild poliovirus has officially been stopped in all 47 countries of its African region. Deidre Crouser, the Rotary Club president, says that because all efforts are on fighting the Covid-19 pandemic, it is easy to forget that polio can return. “We should not think our children are safe if we do not continue with immunization campaigns, surveillance and good hygiene. We would love to encourage all our moms and dads to take their children for vaccination against polio. Go to the nearest clinic, talk to the health workers in your area. “Polio, or poliomyelitis, is a disabling

Pictured from left are Rotarians Francoise la Hause, Ingeborg Muhsfeldt, Melanie Jackson, Deidre Crouser, Shane Ballantyne, Marius and Nicky Swanepoel. and life-threatening disease caused by the poliovirus,” Crouser says. The virus spreads from person to person and can infect a person’s spinal cord, causing paralysis. Crouser says that paralysis is the most severe symptom associated
with polio, because it can lead to permanent disability, irreversible paralysis and even death. “When the Global Polio Eradication Initiative was formed in 1988, polio paralyzed more than 350 000 people a year. Since that
time, polio case numbers have decreased by more than 99%. More than 16 million people have been saved from paralysis because of vaccination efforts against polio. There are just two countries which have never stopped transmission of polio namely Afghanistan and Pakistan. “They face a range of challenges such as insecurity, weak health systems and poor sanitation. Polio can spread from these ‘endemic’ countries to infect children in other countries with less-than-adequate vaccination,” Crouser explains. The Rotary Club based in Century City is a young diverse group of people aiming to make a positive impact on the community through various charitable projects. “Rotary members believe that we have a shared responsibility to take action on our world’s most persistent issues,” Crouser says.

Grocery worker publishes book NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk
B
y day he works in the stockroom of a grocery store. It’s at night when the magic begins. Then Oegeng Frank Bantsijang (50) starts painting and writing his children’s stories, which he hopes will inspire the younger generation to stay in school. Frank, as he is known at the Pick n Pay in Willowbridge where he works, recently self-published his first “real” book – in four different South African languages. Titled The Day Naledi Went To School, the story follows the life of Naledi, a girl who grows up in Mafikeng (now Mahikeng) and who finally attends school, after initially having her reservations. Feeling the message was so important it needed to be shared in as many languages as possible, he asked his wife Nosisi Sododile to help with the Xhosa translation. A colleague, Shaquille Philander, helped translate it into Afrikaans. Frank’s mother tongue is Setswana and he wrote the book in that language before translating it into English. Frank, who grew up in a village called Madibogo, close to Mahikeng, says he used a lot of his own background as inspiration for the story. He knows the feeling of hardship and having no money, just like Naledi. He knows the importance of going to school too. He was inspired to write this specific book when he saw children begging along the road. Frank has been living in Wallacedene in Kraaifontein for almost 30 years and on his commute to Willowbridge, this is a daily sight. “I wanted to talk to them and tell them school is important.” He also has three children – ironically named in every language spoken in their house – Ayabonga (23), Lebogang (19) and Gift (7). Frank only started school when he was 11 years old. His parents were farm labourers and later fell on hard times, leading to Frank quitting school when he was in Grade 11. Until then he would walk a round trip of 12 km per day just to get to and back from GS Phoi High School. He left for Cape Town soon after, searching for a job that could help them all. Yet he never forgot the feeling of empowerment school gave him. It was also at school when he first started noticing his artistic talent. He remembers feeling proud when teachers asked him to draw sketches with which they would illustrate concepts.

VA C A N C Y BULLETIN The four different books. One is in English, one in Afrikaans, one in Xhosa and one in Setswana. PHOTOS: NIELEN DE KLERK he recently lost when his phone was stolen, started giving him free weekly art lessons. His boss would drive him there. Soon after, though, the Persian carpet store closed. It took some time, but in 2011 he ended up working for Angelo Melonas, who owned two Pick n Pay stores – one in Welgemoed and one in Boston. Angelo later sold these stores and became an owner of the Willowbridge Pick n Pay. In the process he hand-picked his best personnel, including Frank, to come and work in his new store. “He’s very quiet, but we miss him when he’s not there,” Angelo says, beaming with pride. Frank recently went on a course offered by his store and Fisantekraal Centre for Development (FCD). It’s here that Angelo first noticed Frank thought much more deeply and positively about things than many of his peers. “One day he showed up in my office with this published book and it totally surprised me. He didn’t ask for any help from my side. I asked him where het got the drawings and he said he did them himself.” Angelo believes Frank could become a full-time artist. He’s been inspired by Frank’s message on various levels. “Here is this guy, earning a living wage, and he’s hopeful about the future.” Frank explains he saved up for quite a while before paying the printer and graphic designer for the book. His wife, Nosisi, also helped with funds. He used his phone to write and take pictures of a lot of his work as he doesn’t have a laptop – that is, until his phone was stolen a few weeks ago. Frank has been published once before – in 2006 a total of seven short stories were published consecutively in Drum magazine’s children section. After that he wanted to give up. He didn’t have the money or resources to carry on fulfilling his dream. Yet, something made him carry on, and holding the physical book in his hand is a feeling he can’t describe. He first received his copies in October and is now selling them for R100 each. This is his legacy, he believes, for if he dies, he wants children to know the magic of going to school. . Frank will be selling his book (for R100) outside Pick n Pay Willowbridge this coming Saturday morning, 14 November, at 11:00

SLICE OF LIFE
Waar is al die grootmense heen? Noem my nou maar mal, maar ek het regtig as kind gedink al die grootmense het die lewe al uitgefigure teen die tyd wat hulle iets soos 20 jaar oud word. Dit is seker een van die grootste ontnugterings van my lewe om te besef mense het wraggies nie ’n clue nie. Moet hormone nie al teen daai tyd afgekoel het nie? Is dit nie hoekom jy laer kar-versekeringspremies betaal wanneer jy 25 tref nie? Maar nee, hier kry ons ’n situasie waar twee groepe grootmense (waarvan meeste ouer as 25 lyk) mekaar gaan staan en aanval buite ’n hoërskool – tydens ’n matriek-eindeksamen. Verstaan mooi, ek is nie aan die EFF of die bakleiende troep khaki-mans se kant nie. Ek is aan die skoolkinders se kant. Het niemand nog daaraan gedink dat hierdie ’n ongelooflike stresvolle jaar is waar hierdie skoolkinders gewoond moes raak aan maskers, handwas en reëls wat gedurig verander nie? Hulle was by die skool en toe by die huis en toe by die skool en moes aanpas by digitale leer en wie weet selfs wanneer universiteite begin? My kop draai net aan die gedagte van matriek wees in 2020. Ek weet, ek weet, jy as EFF-man of baklei-ouer het ook jou issues (anders sou jy nie vroegoggend op ’n Maandag buite ’n skool gaan staan en baklei het nie) maar regtig? Is dit waar ons land nou is? Is dit waar ons samelewing nou is? Kom ek spel dit gou uit vir die mense wat dit nog nie verstaan nie. ’n Groep ouers het ’n privaatfunksie gehou vir matrieks omdat die lot een van die min hoogtetpunte van hul jaar misloop. Nou is daar glo leerders wat nie weens hul velkleur na die funksie genooi is nie (hoewel hierdie ten sterkste deur organiseerders ontken word). Indien dit waar is en my vel ’n ander kleur was, sou ek regtig baie hartseer gewees, dis waar. Maar betoog? I don’t know. Hoekom nie eerder die beste, grootste teen-partytjie hou nie? En nee, ek speel nie af die absolute pyn wat so ’n hipotetiese gebeurtenis op enigiemand kan hê nie. Dit sou verkeerd wees, op hordes vlakke, maar kom ons kyk na drie punte. En hierdie is drie goed wat ek gedurig vir my vierjarige sê: 1. Het dit so gebeur? Wie sê? Kan ons die segsman se woord vetrou? 2. Hoekom reageer jy so? 3. Is daar ’n beter manier om te reageer? Want sien, iewers het ons ’n verwronge speletjie van telefoontjie begin speel, want weet jy regtig wat gebeur het? Kan ons ophou om oor halwe waarhede te betoog en eerder begin eis dat die regering ons dit terugbetaal wat deur korrupsie gesteel is – selfs net gedurende hierdie Covid-tydperk. Ons praat van miljarde rande, boetie. Miljarde. Maar nou maak ons issues waar daar nie issues hoef te wees nie, nou skep ons ’n rassekwessie waar daar nie noodwendig een was nie. En as daar ’n rassekwessie in Brackenfell is, hoekom laat ons hulle dit nie uitsorteer nie? Hoekom buite-mense inkry om hul gevegte te kom klaarmaak. En daardie mans en gemeenskapslede wat die EFF ingewag het om te baklei, watter voorbeeld stel jy nou eintlik? Ja, jy’s vreeslik macho in jou kortbroek en khaki-hemp, maar wraggies. Het jy nou regtig die eer beskerm van jou dorp? Deur dit sinoniem te maak met Brakpan? Kan Brackenfell nie veel eerder sinoniem wees met vrede en liefde nie? Kan die skoolkinders nie maar met die grootmense kom praat oor wat beter maniere is om konflik te hanteer nie? Want wraggies, as hierdie ons grootmense is, het ons hulle nie nodig nie. Bring vir my die kinders, die tieners, laat hulle eerder praat. – Nielen de Klerk

Thieving duo on the prowl This is a warning to all my fellow-readers of TygerBurger – especially those in the Goodwood area. The two “aspiring” thieves who intend stealing your possessions and money, with your permission, after being invited into your home, are at it again. They wear yellow over-jackets and carry a clipboard, wanting to enter the home to “check” or “inspect” the electrical plugs or the switchboard. They even have a little “song and dance routine” asking you to confirm your house number with the one then asking the other – “are you sure it’s number 00?” “Yes” says the other one, as if to put the homeowner at ease. Hulle praat ook Afrikaans! I so wish that someone could photograph them so that we all know who they are. Please beware! JAMES CARSTENS Goodwood
Worry of cruelty towards animals Wehahn Geldenhuys seems to enjoy essay writing and has explained in detail how troublesome cats are and how unprofessional cat owners are (“Kattekwaad lei tot erge buretwis”, 28/10). Miniature lions indeed, but I have never been bitten and the odd unfortunate prey has been rescued as the proud hunter has always come to show me the catch. Staying mostly on the property, they soon learn where they are not welcome. Those of us who understand cats, and it is clear that many complainants do not, will be rewarded with tremendous love and loyalty. The Siamese was prominent in ancient Egypt and
now suddenly they are a threat and cat owners need disciplining. It is the cruelty to animals that should be the subject of contention and worry and not a reader’s dislike of a pet species. WOLFGANG ROUX Email
Speelparkie lyk soos veld My meisie en ek het onlangs in die strate van Boston in Bellville gaan stap met ons getroue woefies, Hachi en Louis, toe ons met absolute skok sien hoe die speelparkie in Tweede Laan lyk. Die gras is verskriklik lank en dit lyk of dit maande laas gesny is. Dit lyk in groot dele van die parkie inderwaarheid soos ’n veld.Dit het ons dadelik laat wonder hoekom ons belastinggeld dan nie meer gereeld gebruik word om hierdie nabygeleë parkie en ander soos dié se gras te sny nie. Die ander gedagte wat amper onmiddellik by my opgekom het, is die feit dat sulke lang gras tot ander gevare kan lei. Wat as ’n skobbejak-verkragter in daardie lang gras lê en wag vir ’n slagoffer? Iemand kan maklik daar oorval en aangerand of verkrag word. BEKOMMERDE BELLVILLIET
Stel self voorbeeld Ek stem só saam met Irene van Kraaifontein (“Maak sypaadjie self skoon”, TygerBurger, 21 Oktober) en Johan Greeff (“Sorg vir jou erf”, TygerBurger, 21 Oktober). Nog al die jare sny my man self sy gras, vee die sypaadjie en in die pad langs die sypaadjie. Wat het van ons respek (of selfrespek) geword? As ek by ons erf indraai, voel ek trots op ons omgewing. Wees jy die voorbeeld! INWONER Bellville
City’s response to Covid-19 Over the past seven months, every resident has been impacted by the coronavirus pandemic and each municipality across the globe has had to respond to the crisis as effectively and strategically as possible. Six months before the Covid-19 crisis, the City of Cape Town launched its resilience strategy across the city and I cannot stress enough how grateful I am that we were equipped with such a robust and strategic planning tool to confront such a time as this. The level of competence and strategic direction provided to the administration by the transversal team led by the chief resilience officer has truly been commendable. The strategy classifies a pandemic as an acute shock, which is a sudden sharp event that threatens a city. As an administration, we had to respond to this acute shock in the most collaborative way possible, which we did by incorporating 20 of the actions in the resilience strategy into our transversal response. I believe that we were able to cope with the extreme pressures we were faced with so far because, as a municipality, we have always prioritised being a collaborative and forward-looking administration. Our resilience strategy is therefore dedicated to underlying processes and behaviours required by the City government to improve resilience across a wide portfolio of projects. This way, we ensured that resilience considerations had already been incorporated into our processes and started fostering resilience thinking into decision-making for some time already. Cape Town is the only city among the members of the Global Resilient Cities Net-
work that has a dedicated focus on processes and behaviours to build resilience, irrespective of which shocks or stresses are being addressed. The focus area of our strategy was deliberate, and followed deep reflection following the City’s response to the citywide drought. The City’s Covid-19 transversal response took a portfolio approach to implementation. There are several programmes and projects supported by project managers and the entire response has been guided by the principles of resilience, including the need to create redundancies, to be integrated, to be flexible and to be robust. The resilience department hosted a workshop with 25 City staff early in March to map the possible disruptions of the coronavirus on a range of City systems. A report was produced, and this work birthed the pandemic business continuity committee, which has been chaired by the City’s resilience director. Adaptive management remained a key founding principle in our response as the pandemic is multi-directional in nature. Operational responses at times had to be adapted almost on a weekly basis as the trajectory of the pandemic adjusted. Looking ahead towards our road to recovery, scenarios for recovery have now been endorsed by the City’s leadership and its mayoral committee. Many of the actions in the resilience strategy and tools that have been developed thus far will most definitely guide our priorities during the recovery period and our response to the future trajectory of the Covid-19 pandemic in the city.

Feesgangers het in spanning gewag vir vanjaar se Suidoosterfees. FOTOS: KAILIN DANIELS
Fees begin op ’n hoë noot KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels Feesproduksies was in ’n splinternuwe baadjie geklee by die afskop van vanjaar se Suidoosterfees op Woensdag 4 November in Milnerton. Verskeie feesgangers het die Suidoosterfees en Atlantic Studio’s se klassieke inryteater ervaar en hul skoene uitgeskop om die feesaanbiedings op die silwerskerm uit die gemak en veiligheid van hul motors te geniet. Woensdagaand se inryteater het feesgangers vermaak met Suid-Afrika se grootste rocker en rymkletser, Francois van Coke en Early B, saam op een verhoog. Van Coke, wat sy eerste verskyning by die Suidoosterfees gemaak het, het TygerBurger vertel dat die inryteater ’n “cool” idee is vir die tye waarin ons leef. “Hierdie jaar het alles verander vir ons. Aan die begin van Covid-19 het ek gedink ek gaan bietjie uithang met my familie. Ons het begin online shows doen. Ons is nou al gewoond aan ‘weird’ goed doen hierdie jaar. Dit is my eerste keer by die Suidoosterfees en dis hoe ek die fees sal onthou,” het Van Coke gesê. Die rymkletser Early B het gesê dat sy ouers hom altyd oor inryteaters vertel het.
“Ek kan darem huis toe gaan en vir my pa-hulle sê ek het nogal by ’n drive-in opgetree. So ek moet sê dit is ’n ‘brilliant’ idea met social distancing ook. “Ek glo ek sal al die energie deel wat ek binne gehou het vir die tydjie wat ek nie kon optree nie. Dis die beste gevoel ooit om weer terug op die verhoog te wees,” het Early B gesê. Een van die feesgangers, Lindy le Roux, het gesê dat die fees herinneringe van haar jeugdae wakker maak. “Die fees het my regtig laat terugdink aan hoe ons flieks gaan kyk het. Dis ’n briljante idee en vanaand is ek trots Suid-Afrikaans,” het sy gesê. Produksies wat op die silwerdoek geprojekteer word, word direk opgeneem terwyl die kunstenaars op ’n buitelugverhoog optree. Inryteatergangers skakel in op ’n FMradiofrekwensie om in hul motors na die klankbaan van produksies te luister. Die geleentheid voldoen ten volle aan vereistes ingevolge die Covid-19- nasionale gesondheids- en veiligheidsregulasies. Met die swaar reën oor die naweek was sekere Suidoosterfees-vertonings (The Variety Show that Skriks vir Niks en Koortjies met Jonathan Rubain en vriende) uitgestel. Besoek www.suidoosterfees.co.za vir meer inligting.
Verskeie feesgangers het hulle gemaklik gemaak agter in hul bakkies om na vertonings te kyk.
Met die sonnige weer Woensdagaand het feesgangers in hul kampstoele die fees geniet.

KILLARNEY: WET WEATHER SERVES UP EXCITING RESULTS
Maiden winners thrill T
he rain gods played the game and kept Killarney dry just long enough for the sixth round Western Province Rotax Max Challenge Karting regionals to deliver fast and exciting action on Saturday 7 November. A full programme saw a few expected results, but more than one racer left the Cape Town track delighted with best-ever performances and first wins under the belt. Jason Coetzee took two wins to one to beat newly-crowned South African champion Sebastian Boyd to premier class DD2 gearbox honours. That did little to help Coetzee close the gap on Boyd in the regional title race as Sebastian continued his preparations for DD2 Grand Finals in Portugal in January next year. A delighted Andrew Thomas not only won his first-ever DD2 Masters race in Saturday’s second heat, but he did enough to take the day overall. Title fighters Jason Greyling and championship leader Conor Hughes shared out the other wins to second and third ahead of Jared Jordan and Robert Peche. It was a good weekend for the Visser boys – elder brother Charl and the rest of the Senior Max field benefited from Tate Bishop taking an early race 1 shower to win the second race. He beat Jason Coetzee, Storm Lanfear, Andre le Riche and the returning Kohen Bam overall.

His race 2 exit did little to SA champion Bishop’s WP title lead. He won the other two heats, while his null score freed up a second place from his dropped worst results. Younger Visser brother Kyle cemented his u.15 Junior championship lead with a
couple of wins and a second to take the day. The happiest kid in that class was however an elated Andre le Riche, who took his first win in race 2 en route to second overall. Brother Kyle le Riche also impressed with a final race win en route to third ahead of
Return to training gathers pace Western Province Club Rugby circles are engaging on various methods of return to training, which provisionally has been set for the new year. “This week saw us meet with our various leagues again to discuss the return to training options as per the Covid-19 regulations. This is not an easy process, but compliance and the health and safety of our members will always be our top priority,” says manager of WP Amateur Rugby Danny Jones. SA Rugby and government regulations
require that each club must have a compliance officer, which has resulted in the union embarking on a Covid-19 awareness and education process, which includes the adoption of World Rugby’s free Covid-19 awareness course, which carries a certification. “We understand that documentation is a major factor for return to training and as such we are constructing various online solutions which will help the clubs to get their players back on the park in a safe
manner,” says Jones. Following the completion of the SA Rugby u.21 tournament last week, the junior format has now changed to u.20, which will see coach Jerome Paarwater commencing benchmark testing at the high-performance centre next week. “Players will receive programmes relating to strength and conditioning applicable to home-based preparation. We are very happy to see that several of these players come from our club rugby ranks and have
New 5K series hits local streets Excitement was abound as runners kicked off the 5K Pop Up Run #2 powered by Puma on Friday 6 November. Consisting of four bi-weekly 5km runs that will start and finish at a designated venue, each Pop-Up Run is limited to 70 runners to adhere to government regulations with the first 50 entries (per run) receiving a limitededition Run Your City Series (RYCS) T-shirt. Runners who complete all four runs stand a chance to win their share in spectacular sponsor prizes. “If a runner cannot make it to the designated venue or if we reach capacity, he/she is welcome to take part virtually,” says Michael Meyer, managing director of Stillwater Sports, who organises the event. In other words, they can run anywhere, take photographs and share them to social media. They won’t receive the RYCS T-shirt, but they will be eligible to win sponsor prizes. This week’s colour theme is orange. We are excited to continue the spirit of the RYCS by hosting the Friday 5K Pop Up Run Series powered by Puma,” says Puma marketing director Brett Bellinger. “With
four runs taking place bi-weekly from October to December, runners are granted the perfect opportunity to catch up with like-minded individuals while enjoying a 5km run. We would, however, like to remind all runners to please adhere to legal Government Regulations for exercise.” How to be eligible to win: . Take a photograph after each run, either wearing the “colour themed” RYCS T-shirt or any T-shirt in that colour. . Upload the photograph to the RYCS social media platforms together with a caption that answers the question “Why do you run?” . Tag Ctown12, Durban10k, Joburg10K and @PUMASouthAfrica . Use the hashtags: #RunYourCity #ForeverFaster . Winners will be announced at the end of the series. V For further information on the Friday 5K Pop Up Run Series powered by Puma visit www.runyourcityseries.com/ or email entries@thecapetown12.com, entries@durban10k.com or entries@joburg10k.com.

Ethan Stier and Matthew Wadeley, who both had podiums on the day too, and Reza Levy. Levy meanwhile consolidated his u.13 Mini Max title advantage with fourth on the day as he left Ethan Deacon and Joshua Smit to fight it out behind Joaquin de Oliveira, who streaked to a trio of race wins to take the day. Jordon Wadeley and Jude Stuart rounded out the top six. Keagan Beaumont was another driver to deliver a first win and then another, to take the day too. Runaway championship leader Reese Koorzen consolidated his title lead with a final race win, a second and a third ahead of Jordon Wadeley, who was on the podium all day long too. Dale Hobbs, Joshua Smit and Sabelo Ntuli closed off the top six. Aiden Beaumont and Kai van Rensburg arrived at Killarney even points in their epic baby Bambino championship duel and both won again. Beaumont did so twice however, to take the day and take a three-point lead home. Michael Danks, Siyabonga Ntuli, Sebastiano Human and John Norman were next up. A number of Cape Town’s karters will make the trip to Alberton’s Formula K Raceway in search of wildcard tickets to Portimao’s ‘Olympics of Karting’ at the Rotax Max African Open this weekend. The seventh and presumably final round of the WP follows on Saturday 21 November.

The deadline for the course is Friday 13 November. “I remind our members that the health and safety of our members is our first priority and in order for us to move forward with a continued approach to follow protocols the education of our members is currently a priority, and that our members must not delay in undergoing the online World Rugby Covid awareness course.” V All applications should be sent to Nazeem Adams on nazeem@wprugby.co.za.
