MOEDIGE OUPA: VOLTOOI SY 250STE PARKRUN

Kanker stuit hom nie NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk

E

nigeen kan aan die Parkrun-wedlope deelneem.

Vra net vir Bertus Byker (68), ’n oupa van drie wat Saterdag sy 250ste een voltooi het. En dit ten spyte van ’n kankerdiagnose.

Byker is die eerste persoon wat by hierdie mylpaal by die Bellville-Parkrun behaal het en net een van ’n handjievol wat dit landswyd gedoen het.

Oor die wêreld heen neem duisende mense elke Saterdagoggend aan Parkrun-wedlope deel. Dié gratis uitdagings strek oor 5km en lok mense van alle vermoëns.

Die eerste Parkrun is einde 2011 in SuidAfrika aangebied nadat dit in 2004 in Londen begin is. Deesdae is meer as 2 miljoen mense wêreldwyd by Parkrun geregistreer.

Byker, wat in Goodwood Park bly, se eie liefde vir hierdie konsep het in Desember 2013 begin nadat sy dogter, Carike (31), hom daarvan vertel het. Hy’t aanvanklik saam met haar deelgeneem, maar die gogga het gou gebyt en hy het begin om op sy eie na byeenkomste in verskillende areas te gaan.

Hy het selfs die oorspronklike Parkrunroete in Bushy Park, Londen voltooi, toe hy in 2015 daar gekuier het.

Byker, ’n oud-ingenieur wat vir die Stad Kaapstad se paaie-departement gewerk het, se aftreejare was op ’n drafstap en positief.

In 2018 het alles egter amper ontspoor toe hy met prostaatkanker gediagnoseer is.

“Ek het aanvanklik nie besef ek het pros-

taatkanker nie, maar bloedtoetse het dit uitgewys.”

Hy moes 35 keer bestraling kry en ook hormoonbehandeling ondergaan. Dié behandeling het hom veral geraak en hy het gewig opgetel, energie verloor en warm gloede gekry.

Hy’t egter steeds elke Saterdag gaan draf, hoewel sy tye nie meer so goed gelyk het as voorheen nie.

“Ek was bang as ek eers ophou gaan ek nie weer aan die gang kom nie,” vertel hy oor sy besluit om eerder aan te hou hardloop. “En dit was natuurlik lekker.”

Mettertyd het sy gesondheid verbeter en hy is nou in remissie, waarvoor hy baie dankbaar is.

Deesdae is byna sy hele gesin Parkrun-entoesiaste.

Hulle deel ook graag foto’s en statistieke oor WhatsApp met mekaar. Sy seun Rudolf (26) en ander dogter Ingrid Hagg (35) bly in Pretoria en neem daar deel.

Selfs sy kleinkinders is ywerige deelnemers. Ingrid en haar man, Frans (39), se kinders, Willem (6), Emily (3) en Bernard (1), neem al deel “sodra hulle in ’n stootwaentjie pas.” Willem het self al 15 wedlope op sy eie voltooi en hy is nog nie eens sewe jaar oud nie.

Sy vrou Helmy volg almal se vordering met belangstelling.

Byker het nie ’n gunsteling baan nie, vertel hy, maar sê hy sal dikwels ’n roete kies na gelang van waarvoor hy lus is.

Identikidz return to beaches T

he City of Cape Town will implement its Identikidz project at 15 beaches over the festive season.

The project aims to help reunite lost children with their families.

As part of the project all children who arrive at these beaches will be registered and issued with a tag containing their parents’ contact details. The initiative will be active at these beaches on 21, 22, 25, 26, 28, 29 and 31 December and again on 1, 2, 4, 5, 11 and 12 January.

The City’s social development and early childhood development directorate is spearheading the project, which is part of the festive season safety plan.

This year, the project has been implemented at Muizenberg, Fish Hoek, Strandfontein, Gordon’s Bay, Strand, Monwabisi, Harmony Park, Mnandi, Big Bay, Sea Point and surrounding area, Silwerstroom, Camps Bay, Lagoon Beach, Melkbosstrand and Milnerton beaches from this past weekend. “The Identikidz programme has grown exponentially as more people become aware of it, and the results are truly astounding.

“It provides peace of mind to parents on busy beach days, when children can so easily become lost in the crowd, but it also makes the task to reunite them far simpler,” says Mayco member for community services and health, Zahid Badroodien.

During the 2018/’19 festive season, just more than 100 000 children were tagged – a 132% increase on the previous year.

A total of 535 children were reunited with

their families.

“We are doing everything possible to keep children safe, but this doesn’t absolve parents and caregivers of their responsibility,” says Badroodien.

“We urge them to register their children with our Identikidz teams as soon as they

arrive at the beach, and to ensure that they keep their cellphone close by and charged, in the event that we need to get hold of them.

“Getting lost is a very traumatic experience for a child and we want to limit the anxiety by reuniting them with their caregivers as soon as possible.”

Children being tagged as part of the initiative.

Spreading Christmas cheer at hospitals Rachel’s Wishes hosted and partially funded two Christmas parties, one at Red Cross and a second at Tygerberg Children’s Hospital on Friday 6 December.

Christine and Debbie Adcock from Rachel’s Wishes, in collaboration with the team from Reach for a Dream, hosted a festive party at the transplant unit of Red Cross Children’s Hospital.

“The children enjoyed a morning of entertainment with the Reach for a Dream ‘Jabulani’ entertainer. This was followed by a delicious lunch for the children and their parents funded by Rachel’s Wishes, along with the very generous donation from Food Lover’s Market, Pinehurst.

“A very big thank you to Roger Boltman, manager of the branch, along with his team, for supporting us with this event.

Without their participation we could not have fed the 65 children and their parents.

The highlight of the day was when each child received a special gift from Father Christmas,” says Christine.

She adds the second party at Tygerberg Children’s Hospital is already an annual feature on the hospital’s calendar. This event catered for 400 children (300 inpatients and 100 outpatients) with the aim of giving the children a Christmas party they will never forget.

“Each year, the organising committee of this event relies on the generosity of various sponsors. Margaret Sendler, Jilly Bird and Ami-Rose Barber from Rachel’s Wishes, along with various other sponsors, ensured it was a huge success. Additional sponsors ensured that each child received a party packet, cake and sweets, contributing to the success of the day.”

VAN BLADSY 1 Vinnige bane is byvoorbeeld by Rondebosch en Century City, waar Durbanville en Bellville se Parkrun-roetes bekend is vir hul bulte.

“Elke baan is anders, dis wat interessant maak. As elke week presies dieselfde is, is dit nie lekker nie.”

Sy “tuis”-roete is die een by Bellville en ook die een waar hy al die meeste gehardloop het (107 keer). Daarom wou hy ook hier

sy 250ste wedloop voltooi.

Oor dié mylpaal is hy dankbaar, veral omdat hy nog gesond genoeg is om deel te neem.

Parkrun het so ’n groot invloed op sy lewe gehad dat Byker almal wil aanmoedig om deel te neem.

“Mense moet kom probeer,” raai hy ander aan. “Niemand word (by die Parkrun-wedlope) uitgesluit nie.”

Dit is veral vir hom, as ouer persoon, ’n

goeie aanmoediging om aktief te bly. “Soos jy ouer word is die versoek om op te hou oefen baie groot. Dit is altyd makliker om niks te doen.

“Maar Parkrun gee vir my daai aanmoediging (om iets te doen).”

Boonop is dit lekker om in ’n groep te draf en mense te ontmoet.

Businesses in Bothasig suffer due to loadshedding RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj

W

hen the electricity grid goes down, so do profits and productivity.

This is the opinion of local business managers and owners in the Bothasig area who have suffered significant losses as a result of loadshedding which was implemented more than a week ago.

In a statement issued on Friday 13 December, Eskom indicated that loadshedding would be required all day “to cater for further trips, and to create capacity to replenish water reserves for our pumped storage schemes”.

On Friday, ahead of the long weekend, Eskom implemented Stage 2 rotational loadshedding between 09:00 and 23:00.

Earlier in the week saw the power utility implement Stage 6 loadshedding. This, businesses say, has hurt their day-to-day running.

Janice Scrimgeour, manager at the Cedar Spar in Botma Street, says their store suffered a lot.

“It has had a negative impact on our business. You can have all the measures in place but, in a nutshell, we do not have access to our computers. We need to put in our orders at our suppliers upfront as some companies will close in the coming weeks but, due to the loadshedding, this has now caused a backlog. I cannot even recharge my cell phone. It is painful,” Scrimgeour says.

She says she feels as if her hands are tied.

“Loadshedding affects us in a negative way. Our tills cut out and the customers do not want to wait. There is absolutely nothing we can do. The customer has a choice

to make – do they wait, or do they leave their stuff and come back later. We try our best to implement things when the lights go out.”

She says the store does make use of a backup-generator, but when the power goes out, it takes a while for the generator to reboot their computer system.

“Our Uninterrupted Power Supply, which runs to our tills, cuts out, and it takes three to five minutes to restart. Some customers do not want to wait. You as a manager, you panic and you are on the edge,” she says.

Scrimgeour says some people do their shopping according to the loadshedding schedule. “We serve a whole lot of seniors in the area and they are not always as computer savvy as the youngsters to check on the app for the schedule and to make sure if there is electricity or not.”

A pet shop-owner at a shopping complex in Vryburger Avenue says her business has suffered a lot too.

“Our fish tanks are taking a strain and we had to use battery-operated pumps to keep the tanks going during loadshedding. Normally, we use electricity,” she says.

The owner says the electricity would go off for nearly seven hours a day.

“I cannot afford to close my business as I have staff to pay. This really is taking a toll on my business,” she says.

Willem Loots, senior manager at Engen De Grendel in De Grendel Avenue, Bothasig, says business here has also taken a knock. “I have been looking for generators but cannot find any. We tried our best to get a generator, but we were told that they were all sold out.”

He says loadshedding has caused a lot of

problems at both the pumps and the store.

“The computers are our main problem as they are not working. Our EFT (point of sales) systems are not loading and the sales of litres of fuel has dropped. The cash made in the store has also dropped,” Loots says.

He says the shop alone usually makes close to R15 000 a day but that his profits have decreased to R8 000. But the fuel outside is our biggest loss,” says Loots.

He says he has been suffering a loss since loadshedding started.

“At first the electricity went off twice a day and then three times a day. On the days it went out three times, we suffered the most.”

The power would go off at 06:00, 14:00 and again at 22:00.

“The morning was probably the worst as people who went to work would stop but cannot put in any fuel. We lost the most at this time of the day. I stood outside and saw how the cars turned around.”

He says the loss in customers is but one aspect. Another is the unproductivity of his staff.

“They have nothing to do during these times except to tell the customers that we do not have electricity,” Loots says.

Eskom is asking its customers to reduce demand as a concerted effort can help to avoid or lessen the level of loadshedding.

Last week it was reported in the media that loadshedding would not be implemented between Tuesday 17 December and Monday 13 January 2020.

V Eskom customers can check their loadshedding schedules on the website loadshedding.eskom.co.za or through the customer contact centre on 0860 037 566.

Thousands of new boots on streets SAMANTHA LEE-JACOBS @samantha_lee121 A total of 5 000 police recruits have successfully completed their police training and will be deployed to stations across the country ahead of the festive season.

The recruits graduated at a police parade at five colleges across the country; with 1 045 officers graduating in Cape Town, on Friday 13 December.

The parade was held at the Philippi Police Academy and was the combined parade of both the Philippi and Bishop Lavis recruits.

Deputy police minister Cassel Mathale says during their recruitment process more than 500 000 applications were received. Of this, only 5 000 were successful.

Mathale says in the light of the rise in the number of cases of gender-based violence, much focus was also placed on preparing the recruits to deal with these cases and “ensure proper victim support is provided”. The new officers will be placed at the various stations across the country for a 12- month probation period.

At least five constables who were identified as the top achievers at both the Philippi and Bishop Lavis campuses received bursaries to further their studies.

At the parade, Capt Bart Nel lead the parade for the last time.

Nel has been at the Philippi Academy for the past 39 years and will now be retiring.

Kankerlyers ontvang vroeë Kersgeskenk RICHARD ROBERTS

bande is meestal deur sosiale media gedoen.

Die bandjies is teen R20 elk verkoop en daar is altesame 120 van hulle van die hand gesit, sê die twee tieners.

“Die kinders is ’n reuse-inspirasie en al is hulle so jonk, is hulle sterk en regte vegters.

“Oktober was kanker-bewusmakingsmaand en ons wou bewusmaking skep van kinders wat aan kanker ly.

“Vanweë al die behandeling wat die kinders moet ontvang, kry hulle nie aldag die kans om net gewone kinders te wees nie. Ek wou om dié rede geld insamel en speelgoed koop sodat wanneer hulle daarmee speel, hulle net vir ’n kort tydjie van die kanker sal vergeet en net ’n kind sal wees en genot sal hê,” sê Anika.

Anika het vanjaar haar matriekjaar aan die Hoërskool Brackenfell voltooi en Marlee is ’n gr. 6-leerder by die Laerskool Bastion.

“Ons wil almal bedank wat ons projek ondersteun het en vir al die donasies,” sê Anika.

ong kankerlyers in die onkologie-saal by die Tygerberg-hospitaal is verlede week met ’n vroeë Kersgeskenk verras, danksy twee tieners se goedhartigheid.

Teddiebeertjies, opgestopte speelgoedpikkewyne en dinosourusse sowel as speelgoed- mediese gereedskap is net ’n paar van die artikels wat verlede Dinsdagoggend aan die kinders uitgedeel is.

Elke oorhandiging is met ’n warm glimlag deur die klein kankerlyers begroet.

Die vrygewige gebaar was dié van twee maats, Anika Fourie en Marlee Nel. Die twee het armbande, oftewel scrunchies gemaak en verkoop. Hulle het die speelgoed met ’n gedeelte van hul opbrengs gekoop en op 10 Desember na die onkologie-saal geneem om dit aan die kankerlyers te skenk.

Die oortollige speelgoed is aan die verpleegsters oorhandig wat dit in die saal se speelkamer gaan berg.

SLICE OF LIFE

Alles wat mooi is vir volgende jaar Terwyl ek hier skryf voel ek asof my enkels met kettings vasgebind is en ek deur dryfsand voortsukkel.

Die einde van die jaar is in sig, maar dit voel so ver. Asof ek nooit die einde van die jaar gaan bereik nie.

Maar hoekom is mens so haastig dat ’n jaar moet eindig? Elke keer wanneer ek uitsien na die einde van die jaar, vra ek myself af hoekom?

Nie een jaar is dieselfde nie, het ek oor die jare gevind. Jy kan jou jaar so fyn as moontlik beplan, maar die lewe loop snaakse draaie. So was dit ook vir my in 2019. Al die planne wat ek vir my en my gesin gehad het, het nie uitgewerk nie.

Terwyl ander onbeplande goed weer verrassend positief uitgewerk het.

My voorneme was om so bietjie van die oortollige vette ontslae te raak, maar ten spyte van talle probeerslae het ek misluk.

Ek sou ook meer skryf, maar ek kon net nooit aan die gang kom nie. Tot die lewe gebeur het.

Toe ek weer sien lê ek op die naat van my rug in die hospitaal. Twee operasies later. Dit was glad nie deel van my beplanning nie.

Omtrent dieselfde tyd begin my bakkie so baie probleme te gee dat ek later nie meer kon bekostig om dit reg te maak nie.

Dit het ek nie sien kom nie.

Ek sê nie hierdie goed om te kla of om simpatie te kry nie, maar om te demonstreer hoe dinge uiteindelik ten goede uitwerk.

Toe ek uit die hospitaal kom en baie tyd op my hande het, het ek geskryf aan ’n manuskrip wat al jare lank onaangeraak rondgelê het. Teen die tyd wat ek weer begin werk het was ek amper 90% deur die boek. Sou ek dit reggekry het as ek nie by die huis was nie? Ek twyfel.

Was dit nie vir my bakkie wat opgepak het nie, sou ons nie ’n splinternuwe gesinsmotor aangeskaf het nie. Vir die eerste keer in dertien jaar het ons weer nuwe wiele gehad.

So hoekom wens ’n mens die jaar om?

Ek dink dit is daardie ingebore gevoel van om weg te wil kom van die negatiewe in die lewe. Of daardie hoop dat môre, oftewel volgende jaar, beter gaan wees.

Dat jy die ervaringe kan wegvee deur nuwes te skep.

Vir Suid-Afrikaners was 2019 ’n helse jaar. So baie dinge het verkeerd geloop.

Dit is nou meer as ooit duidelik dat ons land wanbestuur word. Hiervoor is daar genoeg bewyse voor die Zondo-kommissie.

Ons het nie krag nie. Ons het nie water nie. Ons lugdiens is in sy tjops. Ek het te min vingers en tone om alles op te noem wat in hierdie land verkeerd is. Al leen ek ook by iemand méér tone en vingers, sal dit nie genoeg wees nie.

In ag genome hierdie toedrag van sake, moet ons uitsien na volgende jaar? Moet ons hoop dat dit volgende jaar beter sal gaan? Ek weet nie wat volgende jaar vir die land inhou nie. As ek eerlik moet wees, sien ek onweerswolke op die horison saampak. Die regering kan ons nie regeer nie.

As ’n mens egter met ’n fyn kam tussen al die negatiewe dinge kyk, sal jy vind dat daar tog ’n gryntjie hoop is. Die Springbokke is weer die wêreldkampioen.

Ons het gedink ons sal nooit weer glorie op die grootste verhoog bereik nie, maar vir die volgende vier jaar kan ons breëbors rondloop.

Kom ons geniet die laaste paar dae van die jaar saam met familie en vriende.

En ons hoop dat 2020 ons gaan verras met goeie goed wat ons nie sien kom het nie.

Geseënde Kersfees en ’n voorspoedige nuwejaar. Brenden Ruiter

“Kom ons geniet die laaste paar dae van die jaar saam met familie en vriende.”

Trumpets sounded and angels sang: The Cape Town Male Voice Choir leads the carols as the angel brings the news of Jesus’s birth in a nativity play that formed part of this year’s annual Christmas Carols hosted by the Rotary Club at Kirstenbosh Gardens this past weekend.

Loop lig vir dié kansvatters Na aanleiding van ’n onlangse gesprek met ’n eiendomsagent is dit vir my baie duidelik dat daar groot onduidelikheid is oor die aspek van spesifiek elektriese-nakomingsertifikate.

Ten eerste is dit ’n baie belangrike dokument met betrekking tot jou eiendom.

Dit is nie maar net ’n wyse van geld maak uit die verkoper van ’n eiendom nie.

Nakomingsertifikate gaan oor die beskerming van jou eiendom en veral jou en jou gesin se lewe.

Die koste van die sertifikaat: Ja, daar ís kansvatters.

En die eerste teken daarvan is wanneer die koste van die inspeksie ’n skamele R500 beloop.

Laat ek verduidelik. ’n Inspeksie verg ’n deeglike ondersoek van elke aspek van jou elektriese installasie, nie slegs die uitskryf van ’n dokument van vier bladsye nie. Dit verg ook talle elektriese toetse, waarvan die koste van die toetsapparaat sowat R25 000 beloop.

Voeg daarby reiskoste, reistyd, inspeksietyd, die tyd wat dit verg om die sertifikaat te dokumenteer en miskien die belangrikste, die verantwoordelikheid wat daarmee gepaard gaan.

Daarbenewens verg dit die nodige kennis, wat verkry word eerstens deur vakleerling-opleiding. Dan volg die bestudering (en begrip) van die bedradingsregulasies.

Suksesvolle aflegging van die eksamen moet opgevolg word met praktiese opleiding, en daarna assessering deur ’n gekwalifiseerde eksaminator.

Eers dan kan die student by die departement van arbeid om sy lisensie aansoek doen.

Hierdie hele proses beloop duisende rande, uitgesluit sy tyd en toerusting. Die

bedradingselektrisiën verdien dus sekerlik ’n beter tarief as die beweerde R500.

Laastens kan ek byvoeg, indien die koper enige defekte verwant aan die installasie bemerk, stel dit die vorige eienaar bloot aan vervolging, wat op sy beurt natuurlik die persoon kan vervolg wat die sertifikaat uitgereik het.

Dit op sigself kan natuurlik duisende rande beloop.

En wie ly daaronder?

My pleidooi is, maak seker jy kry ’n geloofwaardige nakomingsertifikaat.

JOHAN KRUGER JNK Elektries

Begraafplaas se toestand skok So gaan ek mos op 4 Desember na ’n verassingsdiens by die Maitland-krematorium.

Soos jy die begraafplaas nader van Goodwood se kant, besef jy skielik dat jou belasting- en heffinggeld nie na behore gebruik word nie.

Die begraafplaas lyk soos ’n “jungle”, die heinings is gesteel, die grafte lê om. Jy sien nie personeel wat die plek netjies moet hou nie. By die krematorium is die verval van die eens statige geboue ook ’n skreiende skande.

Wie dink die owerhede met wie het hulle te doen? Ons betaal ons krom, maar kry niks vir ons geld nie. Die enigste manier dat so iets sal werk, is as dit in private hande gelaat word en al die munisipale “fat cats” verjaag word.

Ek het al lankal besluit ek gaan nie in enige munisipale begraafplaas “rus” nie.

Ek het ’n graf gekoop vir my en my geliefde in Klipheuwel se gedenkpark.

Hoe maak ons om die onbevoegde mense wat ons verteenwoordig, uit te kry?

S.K. Soneike

Stad eerbiedig nie sy eie ordonnansies Op Vrydag 29 November omstreeks 08:10 is my kragtoevoer afgesny omdat ek agter was met my betalings. Omdat ek reeds die geld bymekaar gehad het, het ek onmiddellik ná werk (13:19) my rekening by die plaaslike Pick n Pay ten volle vereffen.

Ek het net daarna die bewys van betaling tesame met die rekening by die munisipale kantoor gaan toon, waar die klerk die kwitansie na hul inbelsentrum gestuur het.

Ek is meegedeel dat my kragtoevoer binne 48 uur herstel sou word. Vandag, 4 Desember, is my krag steeds af.

Blykbaar werk die tegnici (elektrisiëns) tot 22:00 saans.

My houding was “ag, die mense doen maar net hul werk, maar hoekom doen hulle nie nou hul werk nadat ek betaal het nie”?

Ongerief is die minste om van te praat. ’n Mens kan gesels pleks van TV kyk, jy kan met gas kook en kerse of lampies aansteek.

Maar jou veiligheid word ingeboet – geen veiligheidstelsels (alarms, kameras, elektriese heinings, selfoonbatterye) kan werk nie. Jou gesondheid word belemmer as jou medikasie in ’n yskas gehou moet word. Hoekom het die Stad Kaapstad munisipale standaarde en ordonnansies wat hulle self nie kan eerbiedig nie? Hoekom maak hulle beloftes wat hulle nie kan nakom nie?

Kan iemand my antwoord, asseblief?

L.V. Bellville The City of Cape Town responds: The City of Cape Town sincerely apologises for the delay. This was not a normal non-payment disconnection. Normally, after payment is received, it takes

up to 48 hours to reconnect the supply. In this instance, the reconnection happened at 16:40 on the same day as the disconnection; however, the disconnection seal was erroneously not completely removed.

This caused an operational delay and one for which the City is truly sorry. Disciplinary action has been taken by the contractor concerned.

The buck stops with Flower Power I just want to give you a heads up of this awesome place I visited and the great service they render in the Kuils River/Brackenfell area.

They actually do business up past Melkbos, also as wide as Cape Town going on word-ofmouth. They are called AM Flower Power.

The variety of service they give – landscaping, nursery and the garden pots they have – oh my gosh!

They are the one stop shop; if they don’t have something then they manufacture the mould and make a pot for you. No need to go and buy from other nurseries, the buck stops with them and this is where I find them so valuable. Even the big companies buy from them.

Also the professionalism and passion that goes into their landscaping is really amazing. Anton just has a good eye for a beautiful garden setup. He has been doing gardens for well over 30 years now.

But what amazed me so much is the owners’ (Anton and Melanie) story on this business and how they got to this point.

They have been in business for a mere 7 years, but it seems more like 17 years or more with the way they are operating.

Hand in illegal firearms, ammo G

oodwood police have encouraged residents who may be in possession of an illegal firearm or ammunition to come forward.

Police minister Gen Bheki Cele announced the 2019/2020 firearm amnesty period which commenced on 1 December until 31 May next year.

Goodwood police spokesperson Waynne Theunis explains: “This six-month period will afford South Africans an opportunity to surrender illegal or unwanted firearms, ammunition and/or firearm parts. This is another effort to clear illegal firearms from the streets.

“This amnesty also applies to people who

illegally possess a firearm. Such an owner will be pardoned, however, the pardon will exclude people who fail to produce proof of previous ownership of such a firearm.”

Owners are to hand in firearms at their nearest police station where a SAPS 522(B) form (forfeiting the firearm to the state) will be completed.

“Owners whose firearm licences have expired must hand in those firearms at the police station and within 14 days reapply for a licence should they wish to do so.”

For more information on the amnesty period, Goodwood residents can call WO Jan Jacobs between 07:00 and 14:00 on 021 592 4430.

A 48-year-old man accused of rape has been arrested after his victim spotted him at N1 City Mall.

Goodwood police spokesperson Capt Waynne Theunis says police responded to a call made by a 14-year-old complainant.

“Detective Sgt Randal Davids and detective Const Ayanda Dada of the Bellville Family Violence, Child Protection and

Sexual Offences (FCS) unit responded to the call. According to information, the suspect, who was a family friend, raped the victim over a period of four years. After the girl opened a case in July 2018, the suspect disappeared until he was spotted by the complainant,” says Theunis.

The suspect appeared in the Goodwood Magistrate’s Court on a charge of rape.

‘Robber’ arrested minutes after committing crime A 22-year-old man was arrested in Goodwood for armed robbery just minutes after allegedly committing the crime on Wednesday 4 December at about 05:45.

According to Goodwood police spokesperson Capt Waynne Theunis, Const Llewellyn

Brandt responded to an armed robbery.

According to available information, a suspect accused of robbing a man was seen running in Surrey Street. Brandt spotted the suspect, searched him and found a Samsung cellphone. The complainant identified it as his.

Criminals caught in the act Two men, aged 26 and 27, were arrested for house break-in after being caught in the act in Goodwood on Wednesday 11 December at about 01:40.

Police spokesperson Capt Waynne Theunis says Sgt Jacquin Julies responded to the complaint in Station Road.

On the scene Julies noticed that the garage was forced open. On further investigation Julies saw two suspects inside the garage.

“Julies also saw that the front left window of a Hyundai parked inside the garage was smashed.

The complainant was full of praises for Julies’ swift response because the sus-

pects did not have time to steal anything,” says Theunis.

The duo appeared in the Goodwood magistrate’s court. . On Thursday 12 December a 38-yearold man was arrested after police recovered a stolen vehicle.

“Sgt Jacquin Julies and Const Hloniphani Nhlumayo were patrolling Versfeld Road when they saw a man sitting on a red Sym Scooter. The officers found it was stolen in Goodwood in November.

The man could not account for the scooter and was arrested. He appeared in the Goodwood magistrate’s court on a charge of possession of a stolen motor vehicle,” says Theunis.

Brandveiligheid vir kinders: Brandbestryders en nooddienste het Goodwood-biblioteek op Dinsdag 10 Desember besoek om kinders te herinner wat hulle moet doen as ’n brand uitbreek. Die biblioteek-assistent Petro Theunissen sê die brandbestryders het vir die 25 kinders gewys hoe hulle in ’n gebou moet optree wanneer hul klere brand en wanneer daar ’n brand uitbreek. “Die kinders is ook geleer om die noodnommer 107 te ken. Die brandweerwa is ook aan hulle gewys en die waterpype se funksies. Die kinders het ook die geleentheid gehad om die brandbestryders se veiligheidsklere aan te trek.”

Vroeër vanjaar het hulle glo die grootste burger ter wêreld gemaak en nou is hulle ook die nie-amptelike rekordhouers vir die grootste burger op ’n spyskaart ter wêreld.

Joe en Anna van Penhill Estate is die eienaars van Annie’s Ladies Bar in Stikland, waar al die aksie die afgelope paar maande afgespeel het.

Hier het die twee eers op 27 Julie ’n burger van 79,5 kg aanmekaar gesit.

Daarna het baie kliënte gevra wanneer hulle nog so iets gaan maak, vertel Joe. “Toe sê ek kom ons stel nog ’n wêreldre-

kord op. Ons het gegaan vir die grootste burger in die wêreld op ’n spyskaart.”

Op 30 November het hulle dié uitdaging aangepak en ’n burger van altesaam 123 kg gemaak. Dit het bestaan uit twee patties van 35 kg elk, vier verskillende souse en meer as twintig ander bestanddele.

Om die patties te braai, het die Redelinghuyse ’n spesiale braairooster laat ontwerp – hul tweede nadat die vorige rekord opgestel is. Die buns is in agt dele sodat die brood makliker bak.

Met dié geleentheid het hulle besluit om ook iets vir minderbevoorregtes by te dra.

Burger-eters moes R100 per kaartjie betaal en die opbrengs is aan Grace Animal Sanctuary geskenk.

Die “grootste burger” pronk nou op Annie’s Ladies Bar se spyskaart en Joe sê hulle kan met bestelling ’n prys uitwerk. Hy skat ’n burger van so 80 kg sal R13 950 kos. Hy sê dit is perfek vir ’n jaareindfunksie.

Die roosters waarop die patties gebraai is, gaan ook nou teen hul muur hang. Joe sê dit gee ’n goeie idee van hoe groot die burgers kan wees.

Om ’n rekord amptelik by Guinness World Records te laat sertifiseer kos sowat R11 600.

Joe sê hulle gaan nie hierdie duur proses volg nie, maar is tevrede met die grootte van hul burger. Hoewel dit nie seker is of dié burger inderdaad die grootste een ter wêreld op ’n spyskaart is nie, is dit definitief die grootste een wat die meeste mense in hul lewe sal sien.

Be cautious at the beach In light of the current peak summer season and popular beach days, the City of Cape Town is calling on bathers to exercise caution and heed warnings following several drowning incidents.

In a statement, the Mayco member for community services, Zahid Badroodien has advised that bathers stay within safe zones at the beach.

“The peak summer season and popular beach days are still on the way and already 10 people have lost their lives. This is very disheartening, given the awareness drives and campaigns from the City to prevent drowning. During the previous season (2018/2019), there were 11 fatal drownings compared to the season before where 19 people lost their lives.

“Indications are that incidents are related to rip currents or swimming in undesignated bathing areas. Our key messaging each season specifically includes warnings on rip currents and staying within safe zones on the beach,” said Badroodien.

The City has 282 seasonal beach life-

guards, in addition to 11 permanent senior beach lifeguards, who are stationed at 26 locations along the coast, including tidal pools.

“Our lifeguards do a sterling job, given the thousands of visitors who flock to our beaches on a daily basis. While they assist with many help outs, near-drownings and prevent a large number of serious incidents, they cannot do it alone. Visitors to the beach have a role to play and I implore them to remain in the designated bathing areas at all times, swim only at beaches where lifeguards are on duty, to not drink and swim, to only swim between the flags and for adults to supervise their children.

“Our information indicates none of the 10 drownings were alcohol-related. However, two-thirds of drowning incidents are related to problematic social behaviour.

“You are reminded not to bring alcohol to the beach because not only is it illegal, but alcohol impairs good judgment. Help us to keep you safe while you have fun,” added Badroodien.

Tandarts vang graad ná rare siekte NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk Die meeste van Janke Jacobs (22) se klasmaats wat verlede week saam met haar graad gekry het, het geen idee van die stryd waardeur sy is nie.

Sy was immers saam met hulle in die klas en het haar graad in dieselfde tyd voltooi.

Maar Jacobs, van Vierlanden, moes maande lank wroeg deur hordes mediese toetse, die onsekerheid oor of sy ooit weer sou kon sien en die erge newe-effekte van die mediskasie.

“Ek wou eers nie my storie vertel nie,” sê sy. “Maar ek’t besluit dat dit die tipe storie is wat gehoor moet word.”

Jacobs het Vrydag met haar BChD aan die Universiteit van Wes-Kaapland (UWK) gegradueer en is nou ná vyf jaar van studie ’n tandarts.

In haar tweede jaar, in 2015, het haar lewe egter ’n nare draai geneem. “Ek het blinde kolle begin ervaar. Aanvanklik was ek nie te skrikkerig nie, maar is uiteindelik oogarts toe. Ek ken my oogarts redelik goed en ek kon aan haar gesig sien iets is nie reg nie.”

Sy is na ’n oftalmoloog verwys en is sommer dieselfde aand daarheen. “Sy’t nie geweet wat die inflammasie in my oë veroor-

saak en my sig belemmer nie. Sy was baie bekommerd en ek ook.”

Vir drie maande daarna het sy verskeie dokters geraadpleeg en verskeie toetse is gedoen om vas te stel wat fout is.

“Aangesien die proses so lank gevat het, het die situasie al hoe erger geword.”

Daar was tye dat sy bang was om soggens haar oë oop te maak omdat sy bang was dat sy nou finaal blind geword het.

Sy het haar hele loopbaan heroorweeg.

“Ek was bang ek sou nie die graad kon voltooi waarvoor ek so vinnig so lief geword het nie.”

Die toetse kon egter nie ’n klinkklare oplossing bied nie.

“My oftalmoloog het toe ’n kans gewaag en vir my medikasie vir tuberkulose voorgeskryf. Dit was eintlik amper ’n raaiskoot omdat sy ook moedeloos begin raak het.”

Toe sy ná twee weke terug is, het die oftalmoloog vir die eerste keer gesien Jacobs se oë het nie verswak nie. Sy het toe inderdaad tuberkulose in haar retina gehad.

Sy sê dit was ’n groot verligting om te weet wat fout is, maar daar was gou weer ’n ander uitdaging. “Die newe-effekte van die medikasie het my aaklig laat voel. Ek was sewe maande lank elke dag vir die grootste deel van die dag naar.”

Die dokter het ook gesê die kans dat sy

weer sal kan sien, is seker dieselfde as om ’n miljard rand in die lotery te wen. Maar sy wás die wenner. Die deel van haar regteroog wat moet fokus het net-net die skade vrygespring.

Daarna moes sy haar oë oefen sodat hulle kon werk soos ’n tandarts se oë moet werk.

Die ergste was om te leer om geduldig met haarself te wees. “(Dit was) seker een van die grootste uitdagings,” sê sy. “Dit was ’n hoë berg om uit te klim.” Sy moes haar doktersafsprake nakom, eksamens skryf, emosioneel staande bly, ’n mate van die studentelewe geniet en alles balanseer.

“Dit was baie moeilik en uitputtend.”

Sy het haar ouers, Jan en Sonja, ook baie jammer gekry. “Ek dink hul senuwees was meer op as myne.”

Jacobs het egter ten spyte van die uitdagings haar vakke geslaag en haar graad in dieselfde tyd as haar klasmaats voltooi.

“Ek weet nie hoe (ek dit gedoen het nie) en kan net vir God dankie sê dat ek normaal kan funksioneer.”

Sy voel dit is belangrik dat mense weet hoe maklik tuberkulose kan aansteek en dat ’n mens dit nie net in die longe kry nie.

In die toekoms wag ’n gemeenskapsdiensjaar op Christiana, waarna sy hopelik sonder enige ander rare siektes sal kan praktiseer.

Only 12 dogs left at welfare Fisantekraal Animal Welfare (FAW) has 12 dogs left at the animal shelter at Uitsig Animal Welfare in Melkbosstrand, some of which have been waiting more than five years for a forever home.

The dogs can either be adopted or fostered.

“Fostering allows the animal to get out of the shelter environment while waiting for a forever home, during which time the foster can teach them how to be part of a normal family life and help ready them for adoption,” says Jenni Davies, spokesperson for FAW. “This is the ideal solution for those unable to commit to a pet for life, but who would like to have one while also helping

them,” she says.

Home-checks are required and animal behaviour advice will be provided for adopted or fostered dogs.

It costs R600 to adopt a dog, which includes vaccinations, microchipping, deworming, sterilisation, and a free vet check at a Durbanville-based vet after the adoption.

To see all 12 dogs, visit FAW’s Facebook page or website, or contact them directly.

The shelter animals also need food and treats.

V If you would like to donate, contact FAW for drop-off points. Send an email to adoptions@faw.za.org or Whatsapp to 078 892 7892 with enquiries.

Saskia enjoys cuddles and walks. She is a clever and alert medium-sized Shepherd-mix dog of around four years old. She gets on well with other dogs but has been waiting for a home since December 2016.

Nikita is a loving, medium-sized AfricanisGreyhound mix dog. She defended her family against a vicious burglar and was surrendered for her own safety in June 2014. She is now around eight years old and is great with people. Nikita is a highly intelligent, medium-energy dog who adores going for walks and loves attention. She would prefer a male dog friend or to be your one and only.

The Cape Town Metro Police K9 Unit attended Iris House Children’s Hospice’s first dog show at the end of November. The dog show was also a way of introducing the hospice’s new “Doggy Day Care” facility. On the photo are from left: Constable Mosuli Faku, Constable Johnniel du Toit, Constable Shannon Arendse, Senior Superintendent Joan Felix, Sue van der Linde (head of Iris House), Tracy Winde (Iris House patron) with her dog Zidjian, Sergeant Celestina Temmis, Constable Theodore Williams and K9 Instructor Constable Michael Jagger.

Hospice opens ‘first of its kind’ day care for dogs NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk Ever wished you had a solution for your dogs who stay home while you’re at work?

Then Iris House Children’s Hospice’s latest venture, Doggy Day Care, may be just the thing for you.

The hospice, based in Stikland, provides free respite care in the community and at their premises.

To become sustainable and also to provide stimulation for some of their clients, they rely on other ways of generating an income.

The latest is the Doggy Day Care, which opened at the end of November.

Sue van der Linde, founder and CEO of Iris House, says the Doggy Day Care operates like any other pet day care “with professional staff ensuring dogs of all ages and sizes have a fun day with the pack while their humans are at work”.

In this case, Iris House will also use the opportunity to give their over 18 clients a job and, indirectly, a purpose. “(This gives them) a reason to get out of bed in the morning. To earn a stipend, socialise, and learn how to work with the dogs from the professionals and, hopefully, even join the mainstream workforce at some stage,” Van der Linde says.

This will then free up space for the next young adult to join Iris House.

The young adults will be supervised and will help manage the centre and keep it clean. They will also be taught dog behaviour and how to foster obedience in dogs.

They will groom the dogs and give them basic training. As it can be quite draining, the young adults will only be involved for part of the 12 hours the daycare is open.

This project is the first of its kind in the Western Cape and Van der Linde believes it will grow.

“We aim to eventually have an on-site grooming parlour and a food production section as well.”

The hospice hopes 15 young adults will eventually work in the day care once all three projects are up and running. Currently, two are involved.

The opening of the Doggy Day Care coincided with the hospice’s first Fun Dog Show on Saturday 30 November.

Members of the Cape Town Metro Police K9 Unit attended the event and showed what highly trained dogs can do.

VThe Doggy Day Care offers various options. Dogs can attend for two days a week at R1 100 per month, for three days a week at R1 300 per mont and for five days a week at R1 600 per month. A discount is given to second or third dogs from the same family.

All dogs are required to participate in a test day to see if they fit in with the pack (an additional R150).

The day care is open from 06:30 to 18:30. For more information, call 021 910 1578.

Chips is a gorgeous, medium-large male with a big personality and noble bearing. His favourite thing is his ball and he enjoys playing catch. He would be perfect for someone who can only have one dog as he is an attention hog and likes to steal the limelight.

Cody is a bouncy, loveable, intelligent male terrier mix and is struggling to cope with shelter life. He loves going for runs and is an ideal companion for an active person.

He will thrive with training as he is eager to please. He would like a female dog friend. Cody is around three years old and has been waiting since June 2018 for a loving home.

New sponsor for cycle tour announced T

he organisers of the 99er Cycle Tour announced Gryphon Asset Management as the new headline sponsor for the 2020 event. The event takes place on Saturday 8 February in Durbanville. Not only is the Gryphon 99er Cycle Tour a favourite on the cycling calendar and the third largest race in the Western Cape, it’s also a premier seeding event for the Cape Town Cycle Tour.

The race is organised and hosted by the El Shaddai Christian School in Durbanville and is the main fundraising activity for the school. There are over 350 volunteers in the form of parents, staff, pupils, alumni and past parents involved on race day.

Morné Vorster, chair of the 99er organising committee, says: “Gryphon has years of experience in their industry and serves their clients through knowledge, understanding and expertise. These traits fit perfectly with the values of the 99er, which has

built a quality reputation through knowledge and years of experience in the cycling industry. We look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship”.

Hans de Nysschen, chief executive officer of Gryphon, says: “Gryphon is very excited to partner with such a well-established and highly regarded cycling event such as the 99er. We have both travelled similar paths – both having just celebrated 21 years, both having been born out of passion and belief, and both committed to education and improving lives”.

There is a long and a short route to choose from, both of which are great training rides for the Cape Town Cycle Tour. Cyclists are encouraged to take advantage of the discounted early bird entry fee by 27 January.

There are early bird prizes up for grabs, with bi-weekly lucky draws.

Brackenfell, Durbanville bo-aan punteleer SAREL BURGER Brackenfell en Durbanville het die afgelope naweek die nuwe gesamentlike voorlopers in die WP se Premierliga-krieketkompetisie geword.

Die Brakke het Rondebosch, die voorloper op die punteleer, oorrompel terwyl Durbanville naelskraap met Strandfontein afgereken het.

Christoffer Dent was met sy 114

lopies die held in die Brackenfellspan en goeie ondersteuning deur Jackie Strauss (55) en Morné Willemse (53) het die Brakke 267/7 in hul 50 boulbeurte laat opstapel.

Hierna het Brandon Viret (5/43) en Ettienne Jewell (3/34) toegesien dat Rondebosch (154) nie naastenby die Tygerbergers se telling sou kon bereik nie.

Durbanville het uitstekend begin om Strandfontein vir net 131 lopies uit te haal, maar daarna het

eweneens papperige kolfwerk die Durbies op die rand van ’n nederlaag gebring.

Toe die reën spel tot ’n einde gebring het, was Durbanville se 124/9 volgens die Duckworth/Lewis-stelsel darem genoeg om naelskraap met ’n oorwinning deur te skuur.

Bellville is ná ’n rits nederlae weer terug op die wenpad.

Die Bellvilliete (118/4) was heeltemal te sterk vir Langa (114)

danksy die bydraes van veral Daniel Childs (3/11) en Dewald Botha (3/22 en 43).

In die eerste liga was Matthew Snyman (Milnerton, 105*) die groot uitblinker. Hy het saam met Justin du Toit (59) en Dillon Smit (52) Milnerton in staat gestel om 261/5 aan te teken teen Kuilsrivier wat op 136/4 was toe die reën tussenbeide gekom het. Cheslyn Batt (70) was mooi op stryk vir die Kuile, maar Milnerton se beter

kolfgemiddelde het hom die pyp laat rook.

Nog ’n teleurstellende kolfvertoning deur Kraaifontein (123/6, toe dit begin reën het) het die Kraaie die knie laat buig teen Ottoman (217/9).

Die enigste Kraaifontein-kolwer wat sy sout werd was, is Craig Thyssen ((52*). Edgemead (73) het ook ’n vierde agtereenvolgende nederlaag op die lyf geloop teen Primrose (74/3). ’n Laaste reeks wedstryde vir die jaar is Maandag afgehandel, maar uitslae was met TygerBurger se druktyd nog nie bekend nie.

Blitzboks fall short in CT EARL HAUPT @earlhaupt While the boisterous partisan crowd filled the air with expectation at the Cape Town Stadium, the Blitzboks fell agonisingly short of claiming their home leg of World Rugby’s Sevens World Series on Sunday 15 December.

Coach Neil Powell’s men were beaten 7-5 by archrivals New Zealand in a nervy final in front of the 55 804-strong crowd who packed the stadium. In total, 119 539 people streamed through the gates during the three-day spectacle – a record for the event.

After a scoreless first half, Justin Geduld handed the home team the lead after the restart but could not slot the subsequent conversion. As a result, Ngarohi McGarvey-Black broke South African hearts three minutes later when he dotted over

under the posts, which made Akuila Rokolisoa’s pending conversion a mere formality.

Despite the loss, Powell was satisfied with his team’s display over the past two weekends, which saw them bag the title in Dubai a week earlier. “We had two good weeks, playing in two finals and winning one,” said Powell.

“That is a much better start than last season and, bar the two lineouts we fluffed in the final, we had a good tournament. I certainly cannot fault the effort of the players.”

Earlier in the day, in their semifinal, the Blitzboks had to fight back to secure a 21-14 win over France. Despite Marvin O’Connor’s try, converted by Paulin Riva, an inspired phase of play, which started within their half, saw Ruhan Nel dive over for a seven-point score.

JC Pretorius’s clever dummy

flummoxed the French defence and allowed him to coast over the try line unopposed, allowing the Blitzboks to lead the contest for the first time.

Geduld duly slotted the conversion to move the score to 14-7.

Captain Siviwe Soyizwapi capped off a spirited display, rounding off another attacking move from their defensive quarter to take the match beyond France’s reach and to book their spot in the showpiece of the tournament despite a late consolation try by Jonathan Laugel.

In their quarter-final clash against Kenya, Blitzboks turned in a clinical second-half display to see out their fellow Africans in a 17-5 win.

It wasn’t all plain sailing, though. Local hearts were sent aflutter when, against the run of play, Kenya took an early 5-0 lead

through an unconverted try by Alvin Otieno.

However, Nel would restore parity, much to the delight of the home crowd, but Justin Geduld failed to convert, leaving the scores deadlocked at 5-5 at half-time.

During the tournament, Geduld became the fourth South African player in the World Series to score 1000 career points after Cecil Afrika, Branco du Preez and Seabelo Senatla.

Shortly after the restart, Nel would secure his brace after rounding off a well-orchestrated lineout, converted by Geduld. Selwyn Davids put the game beyond Kenya’s grasp when he chased down a kick by skipper Soyizwapi. Nel, however, could not play in the final after picking up an injury in the semi-final win. He was sorely missed.

“It was a pity that I could not play in the final, but that is the way rug-

by goes sometimes,” said Nel. “At least I played in two full tournaments and we did very well. I am now returning to fifteens, but I am very pleased with my short comeback to sevens. At least I know my conditioning will be right up there when I join the Stormers soon.”

Meanwhile, the Springbok women’s Sevens team, Imbokodo, who made their debut at the Cape Town Sevens, finished 10th. Coach Paul Delport applauded his squad’s efforts, saying the tenthplace finish was what they were aiming for.

“We realised that our intensity was not good enough and, therefore, our defence suffered and we made some poor decisions on attack,” said Delport.

“But that was always par for the course as we last played at any level close to this last year at the Rugby World Cup Sevens.”
