Cree Indian Prophecy +++++++ Give like the rose gives its perfume -- effortlessly, unconditionally because it is its own nature.??- Swami Vivekananda - +++++++++ EDITORIAL IGNORANCE IS BLISS It is so quiet in Chimanimani I can hear the sound of the bees when they drop onto the carpet. Many folk worldwide fear for the demise of the bee population, but fear not, they should come and harvest some from us here in Chimanimani. The wall in the bedroom is dripping with succulent golden honey from the giant hive in the roof. I believe we might be on a Bee Flight Path, and they are more than welcome in our home, but probably only because we have no animals and no small children here! I have my toes toasting in the sun and watch the Blue Mountains of Melsetter loom in the morning dawn. The proteas abound in May, which could possibly mean a sighting of the Gurneys Sugar Bird and way yonder the distance I can hear the sound of a Purple Crested Lourie, although I am sure the pundits have now changed his name. Our garden is divine at this time of the year and the garden next door is a mass of flowering brilliant scarlet poinsettias, the sort one would pay a fortune for from a hot house in New York. The sunbirds are flitting busily from flower to flower in the brilliant purple Tibuchina tree and the ubiquitous Bulbuls are busy investigating the indigenous fig right outside the window. The Azaleas are blooming in glorious profusion, crimson, purple and magenta and in the distance I can hear the sounds of a logging truck laboriously grinding its way up the valley from Charter or Tilbury. We planted two Khaya Nyasica in the garden some years ago - the fabled "Big Tree" from the Chirinda Forest on the slopes of Mount Selinda and they tower majestically above the other trees, what stories will they have to tell to future generations about this magical yet sadly decimated part of Zimbabwe. The harsh croak of the white-necked raven is the only sound that I can hear at all apart from the bees and all is at peace with the world. Little did we know that our youngest daughter SheeHooMustSing - was hiding in a foxhole under fire from Sudanese MIG jets as we sat basking in the winter sun!! Televisions are not evident in Chimanimani, news is important, but the business of making a daily living is paramount, and it was some time before we discovered our Youngest of journalistic persuasion, had actually been under attack! The internet works at little more than a snails pace too in Chimanimani despite the fact that there are three ugly towers on Pork Pie which is but a stone s throw from the house... It took thirty heart-stopping minutes to track down and laboriously play the CNN video depicting the bombing, and attacks by gunships, and by that time Mother was ready for the Nervous Disorders Hospital!! Ah well, "all s well that ends well" and the three dedicated journalists have since recovered from their horrific ordeal and are safe and well. Then the spate of guarded texts started arriving from concerned friends and relatives all over the world as the news spread like wildfire over Sky, CNN and BBC. "How are you doing up there in the mountains? Have you heard from your Youngest daughter? " Very guarded and formal just in case we were not aware of her plight. How on earth does one know anything that is happening in the world without the telly ? Those strange 'end of the world' films, where nearly all life on earth has been decimated but the telly is still running quietly in the background bringing one the latest news on the situation, always enchant me!! Mental note - take the portable TV and Satellite dish with you whenever you travel into uncharted territory!! ++++++++ 1) NOTICES AND EVENTS Old Miltonians Sports Club English Pub Night $10.00 Friday 4th May 6.30 for 7.00 Fun & Music by Mac Prize to - The Best Dressed 'Londoner' All welcome come and have some fun Bookings for Fish & Chips Please Phone Helen 0772 261330 +++++++ GARDENS AND EVENTS WILL BE MOVING TO NEW PREMISES WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT.

Bushbeat started off as a small supplement in the Wildlife & Environment Zimbabwe Magazine and in November 1974 became a magazine able to stand on its own. The idea behind Bushbeat was that it was felt that the rural children were not getting enough information about the flora, fauna etc of this country. Books and magazines were hard to come by and still are and the children were missing out. The main objective of the magazine was to get the young children interested, and makes them aware of what a wonderful wildlife heritage they have and to preserve it in the future. Unfortunately due to lack of funding Bushbeat was discontinued in 2003. However, thanks to 'friends' of the Matabeleland Branch, we reintroduced the Bushbeat Magazine in September 2011 and the first 10000 copies were distributed to many schools in and around Bulawayo. The second edition has just being distributed and the next issue is at the printers and will be distributed next school term. Our aim is to distribute a new edition of Bushbeat every school term and therefore we are appealing to anyone who can help us out with printing costs, which are +-$800. Bushbeat plays a very important role in educating the children about wildlife and environmental issues and goes out to the rural schools at no charge whatsoever. So please, if you can, help us to save Bushbeat! If able to help contact Wildlife & Environment Zimbabwe, Matabeleland Branch Administrator on (09) 237049 or pbirch@yoafrica.com +++++ Queen Mary House has a large pile of garden refuse that needs to be removed.

He raised the cover and lit his lighter; the vapours ignited and engulfed him. He jumped from his truck, screaming. His neighbour came out of her house with a dozen eggs and a bowl yelling: "bring me some more eggs!" She broke them, separating the whites from the yolks. The neighbour woman helped her to apply the whites onto the young man s face. When the ambulance arrived and the EMTs saw the young man, they asked who had done this. Everyone pointed to the lady in charge. They congratulated her and said: "You have saved his face." By the end of the summer, the young man brought the lady a bouquet of roses to thank her. His face was like a baby s skin. A Healing Miracle for Burns: Keep in mind this treatment of burns is being included in teaching beginner fireman. First Aid consists of first spraying cold water on the affected area until the heat is reduced which stops the continued burning of all layers of the skin. Then, spread the egg whites onto the affected area. One woman burned a large part of her hand with boiling water. In spite of the pain, she ran cold faucet water on her hand, separated 2 egg whites from the yolks, beat them slightly and dipped her hand in the solution. The whites then dried and formed a protective layer. She later learned that the egg white is a natural collagen and continued during at least one hour to apply layer upon layer of beaten egg white. By afternoon she no longer felt any pain and the next day there was hardly a trace of the burn. 10 days later, no trace was left at all and her skin had regained its normal colour. The burned area was totally regenerated thanks to the collagen in the egg whites, a placenta full of vitamins. +++++++ 10 PERSONAL COLUMN 11) GWERU AND HARARE NEWS 12) WINING AND DINING AND COFFEE SHOPS Mother's Day Special!
