WINTER OF CONTENT

My dear neighbour has stopped his boom boom noise today (thanks to ZESA) and the only sound I can hear is the sound of our resident woodpecker busily tap tapping away on the African Tulip tree.

Is it a Bennett's woodpecker ? Is it a Goldentailed woodpecker ? A Cardinal woodpecker perhaps ? I can never spot him long enough to identify him because we have played hide and seek for many years now. As fast as I move around the tree, so does he, never interrupting his furious tap tapping, one beady eye on my movements and one on his task at hand !!

Today his tap tapping is faster than ever I wonder why, maybe with winter just around the corner, there is more urgency in his pursuance of whatever it is he is doing. Is he boring into the wood for termites? Is he making a hole in the tree for the winter cold ?

Whatever he is doing, its a pleasant sound, far nicer than my neighbors boom boom !! (Thank you ZESA!)

Sounds get more important as one gets older, maybe its because we can hear some sounds and not others, more clearly. For example, I can hear the sound of the tap tapping clearly, yet Mr Woody is some distance away at the far end of the garden, and yet, I fail completely to hear the dulcet tones of HeeHoo most of the time (specially when he needs another cup of coffee?) I am convinced that he mumbles deliberately so I feel deaf and ancient !!

But there was a brilliant rainbow in the garden today right outside my window. It was shining through the spray from the garden hose (Before the power went off !) It was beckoning me to come outside and garden, its little azure fingers enticing me excitedly as it bent perfectly over my delicious purple and green coleus, my towering Lady Elizabeth roses, my brilliant tangerine clivia and the deep purple and pink of the begonias.

Its such a wonderful time of the year one wishes one could in fact just eat it ! The poppy seedlings are massed in great swathes, struggling to find their own particular place in the sun. The dwarf lemon marigolds are already flowering along the driveway. The Namaqualand daisies are everywhere, hollyhocks too and I am hoping some kind soul will give me some cineraria seedlings !

Winter in Zimbabwe means more power cuts but on the positive side, until our boom boom neighbour starts up his generator, the peace that power cuts bring can be most enjoyable. There is so much "white noise" in the modern home that when all the fridges, freezers, TVs and radios are totally turned off, the lack of sound is absolutely delightful.

The garden birds abound, the crested and red collared barbets and frantically doing what they do prior to winter. The Red Billed Wood Hoopoes screech raucously as they descend upon a particularly delicious insect patch in a tree. And all the while, the most wonderfully poignant and evocative of all bush noises carries on in the heat or cold, rain or sun, the Red Eyed Dove trills on regardless.

We went to see that wonderful Disney movie "African Cats" with my brother in law David, and as much as the photography of the great cats was incredible, magnificent, awe- inspiring, the one thing that caught his attention, (having been away from Africa for over thirty years now), was that hauntingly beautiful sound of the tiny little Red Eyed Dove that seems to seep into the heart of every single African Scatterling worldwide.

Friday 27 May in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. - with supper interval. Carriages: 10.00 p.m.
This Salzburg Festival production starring Anna Netrebko and Rolando Villaz n was the operatic event of the year when it was staged in 2005.

Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members]

No admission charge.
BLACK SWAN
Thursday 9 June in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.30 p.m.
"Nina (Natalie Portman) is a ballerina in a New York ballet company whose life, like all those in her profession, is completely consumed with dance. She lives with her obsessive former ballerina mother who exerts a suffocating control over her. When artistic director Thomas Leroy decides to replace the prima ballerina for the opening production of the new season, Swan Lake, Nina is his first choice. But Nina has competition, Lily, a new member of the company who also impresses Leroy. Swan Lake requires a dancer who can play both the White Swan with innocence and grace and the Black Swan who represents guile and sensuality. Nina fits the White Swan role perfectly but Lily is the personification of the Black Swan..." Admission: $3.00 [free to film members]
SWAN LAKE
Friday 10 June in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. - with supper interval.
After Black Swan, Tchaikovsky's ballet comes in a Teatro alla Scala production starring Svetlana Zakharova and Roberto Bolle. The choreography is a "new" version by Vladimir Burmeister which in fact goes back to Tchaikovsky's original score and the original scenario. Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members]

3) Roses And Raspberries
ROSES
A HUGE bouquet of roses to Berry Oosthuizen , SPCA ( Bulawayo ) Animal Welfare Officer . Late on Wednesday afternoon , my AMAZING ' rescue ' dog , Rosy , alerted me to the fact that there was " something " on the pavement outside my durawall .
I saw a dog that I thought was either dead , or dying , and managed to contact Berry . Although she must have had the usual day dealing with death and drama , she arrived within thirty minutes . Fortunately , she lives nearby and was on her way home , but , she did not even stop to have a cup of tea ! Sadly , there was nothing that could be done for the dog .
WELL DONE, BERRY !
Bulawayo's " unsung " heroine
Thank you so much for your ongoing compassion .

Emotional Lives of Animals
It won't surprise pet owners, but now, scientific research also shows that many animals are intelligent, and even have some abilities that dwarf ours. Dogs are able to detect diseases such as cancer and diabetes and warn humans of impending heart attacks and strokes. Elephants, whales, hippopotamuses, giraffes, and alligators use low-frequency sounds to communicate over long distances. Many animals also display wide-ranging emotions, including joy, happiness, empathy, compassion, grief, and even resentment and embarrassment. It's not surprising that animals -- especially, but not only, mammals -- share many emotions with us, since we also share brain structures that are the seat of our emotions. { read more }

Dear Mags
I noted with joy and fond memories your site and still spend nostalgic moments thinking back to those wonderful days. I write to say thank you for your efforts, and to ask whether you remember some of 'us' who frequented the fair city so many years ago. At the time of writing, Jean Ness (Eighth Avenue Pharmacy, Stobart and Wixley etc..) is still searching for her 100th birthday as she celebrates her 97th this year in George SA. Unfortunately William (Jock) Ness the teacher at Gifford/Northlea and a Hillside Bowls Player for many many years, went to the bathroom in 1992 and failed to emerge (78). His legacy lives on in the many hundreds of men who made it good after going through his capable hands, and live in countries throughout the world.
Also William, but referred to as Bill or Billy by many of my friends and clubmates during those wonderful years, I now reside in the windswept and cold Scotland, where we are experiencing winds of 100 mph at the moment.
Should your wonderful newscast come across a David Jacobs, a Christopher Plaskitt, a Josephine Gregg, or indeed anyone who remembers me, I would love to hear from them. There never has been, nor ever will be a place like Zimbabwe or Rhodesia as I knew it, where 'God came to rest'. I have never seen the likes of Rhodesians either, a warm sensitive people, both black and white, many of whom have struggled to survive in a greedy and often uncaring world. I remember an old English gentleman in an essex pub once summed the the Rhodesians when he said, "You Rhodesians are such a bloody romantic and sensitive lot, I still wonder what makes you all such determined survivors?"
May I wish you, your friends, and your efforts every success for the future, and hope one day the sun will rise on a land where once again all peoples will walk with joy and peace in their hearts.
Very Best Wishes
William Ness

"Whenever the wife and I quarrel, she gets historical" a man told his friend.
"You mean hysterical" the friend said.
"No, she remembers everything I have done wrong since we met"

A woman who was upstairs at their home, heard a loud crash when a truck ran off the road and crashed into the side of their house. Her fist thought was of her son. "John !" She yelled. Her son called back: "I didn't do it Mom !
