ADVERTS TO BE SUBMITTED BY MONDAYS AT 5 P.M ++++++ Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. - Leonardo da Vinci - ++++++ Editorial Hwange Paradise The last time we visited Hwange Game Reserve, We were totally gutted by the devastation wreaked by the 2012 drought. However this week a visit to Nehimba Lodge caused much joy in our souls. The rains have been magnificent, there is so much water lying around that Hwange, in parts, looks like a giant marsh. On our last visit to Nehimba, there was so little water that the desperate elephant were drinking from the lodge swimming pool. This year, a vast lake of water surrounded the entire lodge. Water birds abound right up to the doors of the chalets. Egrets, herons, knob nosed duck, white faced whistling duck, spur wing geese, flocks of secretary birds, spoonbill storks, crakes, jacanas, wooly necked storks, coots and dikkops abound. Away from the pan were the kohaans, the white browed sparrow weavers, the red-billed sparrow weavers and hosts of birds of prey. In fact it has become a birding paradise and the young guide, Forrest, is a real expert on birds and birdcalls. As the heat of the day built up, one could almost hear the sun shimmering in the grass, and then the rain came down!! Suddenly the landscape became a sea of brilliant green as millions of tiny baby toads emerged from the marshes and headed for higher ground. It was like a moving, hopping migration and quite fascinating to witness. Forrest is an expert on frogs too and he kept us enthralled with his knowledge of these fascinating amphibians. The toads were tiny, the size of a thumbnail, iridescent green and yellow, some still with their tadpole tails intact!! One of Mother Natures amazing scenarios that city slickers never encounter. Now I am not a great fan of frogs, but somehow country frogs are so much more melodious than town frogs. The night sounds were sometimes almost deafening, with the sound of the bubbling frog echoing like a musical note dropping delicately like liquid gold The lodge has adopted two orphaned baby hornbills that had voracious appetites and kept the whole camp busy catching grasshoppers and flying ants!! Although they did not grace us with their presence during our brief stay, we could hear the lion in the distance, and the camp guide warned us to prepare for 'pajama parade' in case the lion and elephant visited us at night!! Lazy game drives revealed not only birds, but also elephant, roan, sable, plains game and a group of four young bat eared foxes making curious friends with some spurwing geese - a strange combination indeed and neither species was quite sure of how to handle this encounter!! With the absence of big game due to the thick lush green bush, we entertained ourselves happily by watching the smaller creatures. The dung beetles were everywhere, clowning around in an idiotic dance, pushing, pulling, flailing and tumbling over their giant elephant dung balls. A series of intricate dung beetle maneuvers would, if set to music, be absolutely hysterical on a video. We watched the pied kingfishers dive and dive again and again, exerting such incredibly fast wing movements that defied all explanation. How happy we were to see the magical resurrection of the Hwange National Park, God bless Mother Nature and her bountiful rain this year. +++++++ 2) NOTICES AND EVENTS NEW DANCE CLASS STARTING AT STILLHAVEN, 1 FEB 2014 'Free Dance' Saturday Mornings 9.30am - 10.30am $4 per class For men and women of all ages and stages, no dance experience required.

He was a brave soldier. He was a such a gentleman and had the biggest heart ever. He will be so sorely missed by his family. Father to Wayne and Debbie, Grandad to Michael and Brendon. RIP my Dad Love you so so much. ++++ Fred Webster passed away this afternoon, gone to rest, will always miss you. Love Daphne ++++++ MICHAEL HENRY LAWSON Our beloved Father/Grandfather died peacefully in his sleep on the 20th January 2014 after a short illness bravely borne. Ex Harare, Hwange and later Somerset in UK. Dad you'll be sorely missed with your quiet ways and strength. You have left a huge gap in our lives. At rest now with Mom. "Time cannot steal the treasures That we carry in our hearts, Nor ever dim the shining thoughts Our cherished past imparts . . . And memories of the Dad we've loved Still cast their gentle glow To grace our days and light our paths Wherever we may go" Luke 15: 3 - 7 The God who holds the universe is the God who is holding you," Dad Death is part of the future for everyone. It is the last post of this life and the reveille of the next. Everywhere men fear death. It is the end of our present life, it is the parting from loved ones, it is setting out into the unknown. We overcome death by accepting it as the will of our loving God, by finding Him in it. Death like birth, is only a transformation, another birth. When we die we shall change our state, that is all. And in faith in God, it is easy and natural - as going to sleep here and waking up there. From "Journey of a Soul" by Pope John XXIII RIP Dad we will miss you terribly Sharon, Aidan and Sharon, Richard and Sue and Giles and Dawn. Grandchildren Mathew, Philippa, Nathan, Joshua, Gregory and extended family. +++++ In loving memory of Sandra Elaine Nell who passed away in Byo on 24 Jan 2008: In the quiet of the evening I sit and think of you, I open up my memory book, Of the things we used to do, And as I turn the pages, My eyes are filled with tears, For, although I have my memories, I can't hold back the years Our hearts are filled with memories? Which we gather through the years? All the happy times we shared Are treasured souvenirs. Still missed by your son Carl, daughter-in-law Kim, grandchildren Kayla and Levi +++++++ In loving memory of Sandra Elaine Nell who passed away peacefully in her sleep in Bulawayo on 24th January 2008. Remembrance is a golden chain Death tries to break, all in vain, To have, to love, and then to part Is the greatest sorrow of the heart. The years may wipe out many things, But this they wipe out never- The memory of those happy days When we were all together. As we loved you, so we miss you; In our memories you are near. Loved, remembered, longed for always, Treasured with a love sincere. You are where we cannot see you, And your voice we cannot hear; Yet we know you walk beside each of us, Never absent, always near. Lovingly remembered by your sisters Christine and Kathy and brother in law Toby. +++++++ 5) ROSES AND RASPBERRIES Thank you so much for putting my request to find the Mrs Leavis who had donated a gift to a DP in the Bergen Belsen camp. Robert Baldock from the UK has responded - his mother was friendly with the kind donor. I have forwarded his letter to the family who received the box in the camp - and who had kept it for so many years as it had meant so much to them. Because of you, and because of your website, I hope that the family of the donor and the family of the recipient can make contact after all these decades. It is wonderful to know that there are so many kind and caring people out there prepared to go to trouble for strangers. Gwynne Robbins +++++ Roses for Zonki Iziwe Shopping Centre for providing parking bays for the disabled, and raspberries for the folk without disabilities who park in them. Could I point out to the powers that be, that these parking bays are just too narrow for the cars used by our disabled folk. At least three parking bays are needed for a two parking bay configuration, as the car doors for disabled people need to be opened really wide. Thank you for caring Zonke Izizwe, and shame on the people without disabilities, who selfishly use these prime parking places. +++++ 6) PETS COLUMN PUPPIES FOE SALE LABRADOR .......GOLDEN YELLOW PUPS FOR SALE If you want the perfect dog, good looking, well muscled and absolutely faithful to you and your family, get a Labrador.

Therefore radio/TV licences are required and will be enforced accordingly. Licences have been received from the printers (both term and annual), and are in the process of being distributed to post offices. These are already being sold by ZBC staff in shopping car parks. Personal Vehicle Radio Licence - $30 per year Personal Vehicle Radio Licence - $10 per term* Company Vehicle Radio Licence - $80 per year Home TV/Radio Licence - $50 per year *(We understand all licenses can be paid over three terms). Correction to our previous advice on concessions: these are available for 75 years olds and above, but only for home radio/TV use - not for vehicles. To obtain this concession you have to go to ZBC Pockets Hill with a copy of your ID (proof of your pensionable age) and Proof of Residence. Visit the reception at Pockets Hill and someone there will help you. Regarding vehicles which have Japanese radios that do not catch local radio signal or non-working radios, according to ZBC the law states: 'anyone in possession of a radio' - it does not differentiate whether it is in working condition or not, so regardless you have to hold a licence if you own a radio visible to the public in your vehicle. ZBC Licencing can be a called directly on (04) 498643; we found their staff very helpful. +++ CITY OF BULAWAYO Dam Statistics as at Friday, 24th January 2014 Insiza/ Mayfair - 60.9% Inyankuni - 9% Lower Ncema - 43.8 % Umzingwane - 29.4 % Upper Ncema - 13.9 % Mtshabezi - 96 % TOTAL - 45.89 % ++++++++ Mbokodo Butchery has tons of manure to be given away free.
