If things were going well we could hear him humming under his breath - when the equipment was not co-operating - the grandchildren learned some very interesting and colourful language. When I became his daughter in law I had some understanding of who this great man was. I had grown up listening to him on the RBC. His passionate love was classic music and it was for his programmes that he will be remembered. His erudite presentation and knowledge of his subject drew me to the radio and pulled me in as it did to the thousands of people who listened in. As an outsider I was drawn into this family of noisy Bothas - everyone trying to out do the next in the volume stakes, little wonder Pops became hard of hearing in his later years. He had set up a microphone near the television so he could follow the programmes. Little did we realise he could hear everything that was being said in the room! He wasn't much of a conversationalist but he knew exactly what was going on. Pops had a tremendously sweet tooth and often half the sugar would go missing in the night as a consequence he lost most of his teeth. He loved to pop in of an afternoon for a slice of cake and as an excuse to see his tiny granddaughter Kayleigh whom he adored and his grandson Adrian who escaped many a telling off as a teenager because Pops covered for him. His love of broadcasting he passed on to my husband David. I recently asked Pops for details of his life. He had something complementary about each of his talented children of whom he was immensely proud -of David he said "He was popular on Radio as a DJ - a clever go-ahead guy - like father like son." When we left Zimbabwe the most difficult thing about being on the other side of the world was not being able to talk to Pops. Being deaf talking on the phone was impossible but he kept in touch with through letters. Asking people leaving Zim to post them - mail would arrive from all over the world. I had a vision of Pops as a world traveller as a letters arrived on the door step from Canada, America, South Africa and the UK. His way with words was second to none - full of local news he made a concert at Peter House sound like it was the event of the year and we couldn't wait to receive these missives from him. As a writer myself I will treasure them. Today we bid our Pops farewell - if I had one thing to say to him it would be thank you for everything he taught us especially for the great love of music he passed on to not only his children but his grandchildren too. He has gone to join Tessa, his wife and I know wherever he is classical music will fill the air as he sinks his teeth into a piece of heavenly sponge.

Every morning when I turn on to Harare Drive, I look over at the hilly suburbs in the distance which, in the last few months, have been shrouded in a thick layer of particulate matter (smog). It is especially bad after a night of no ZESA when generators have been spewing their exhaust fumes relentlessly into the atmosphere. Yet invariably, I drive past a residential fire every 500m or so. When I talk to people about this, most people respond by saying 'it's always hazy at this time of year'. Perhaps I am more sensitive than most, but my persistent dry hack and searing lungs when any form of exercise is attempted would disagree. This is not just 'haze' - this is air pollution! I dread to think how intolerable it must be for asthmatics, or those with respiratory disorders. It will not have escaped the attention of the more observant residents that we have had relatively few days of deep clear blue sky this winter. In fact, blue sky is becoming a rarity which only seems to occur when the wind is strong enough to carry the pollution away. This was brought home to me the other day when on a trip to Macheke I noticed that the msasa trees were framed by a gorgeous deep blue sky which was rapidly replaced by a filthy grey pall as we drove into Harare. What amazes me is that people seem completely oblivious and continue to selfishly burn their household waste and leaves as if they were the only organisms on the planet. You can't drive a block without seeing smoke belching up from someone's garden. I have been to 2 police stations and 2 City of Harare District Offices with information on the health risks related to burning, asking them for action, and both Departments seemed disinterested, and passed the buck to EMA. Although EMA politely takes your phone call about offenders burning their waste, they explained to me they simply don't have the personnel to go around putting out all the fires in Harare's suburbs. Therefore, we ALL need to become pro-active in this department. If everyone reading this stopped just once in their day (or week!) to politely explain to the gardener lighting his bonfire on the street corner that what he is doing is not only extremely hazardous to health but also illegal, maybe we could start to create some awareness. If everyone wrote letters of complaint to their police station, or just talked to police officers at road blocks about the air pollution, and suggested they set up a bicycle-led task force to fine bonfire offenders - which would generate them a fortune - perhaps we could create a police force that is more interested in safeguarding our environment and less interested in fining motorists. If everyone flooded their local papers, local Council Offices and the EMA with letters of concern, eventually public pressure would necessitate action. We have the laws in place, we just need enforcement! I would encourage you to talk to your neighbours about composting instead of burning their garden waste. Print and hand out the attached fliers on the health risks associated with burning. Ask them to use their generators only when necessary, not set to automatically kick in when the power dies. Sure, some people will tell you to mind your own business. Thing is, it is our business - at the end of the day, no matter what party, religion or creed you belong to, we all have one thing in common and that is the air we breathe. We can only make a difference collectively. Don't wait until you or your loved ones are afflicted by some pollution-induced illness. You can either suffocate in silence or take action today!!!
