I grew up in Zimbabwe in Bulawayo, during a time when everyone treated each other like Family, everyone's mum was called aunty even if they were no relation. We went outside to play on streets, built dens and make tree swings, we made forts along the banks of the Matsheumhlope River, we got dirty. If you had siblings you shared a bath, we didn't eat fast food...we ate jam buttys, home made food and chips cooked in a lard chip pan. We got ice cream from Dairibord if ya mum was flush, otherwise a choc ice from freezer. We played rounders, Hedge hopping, Kerby, Hide and Seek, Red Rover, British bulldog and knock 'n run and made rose petal perfume . There was no bottled water, we drank water from the tap. If we had a drink we would share the same bottle of pop...after giving it a wipe with our mucky sleeves, or we would drink Mazoe Orange. We had no kids TV channels, we rode our bikes for hours. We spent all summer at the Borrow Street pool. There was no such thing as a mobile phone or any other electronic device. We weren't AFRAID OF ANYTHING. If someone had a fight, that's what it was...a fist fight, but that was very seldom. Kids didn't have guns or knives.The street lights were your curfew or until your mum shouted out of the window. School was mandatory, but you'd still skyve a couple of lessons every now and then. We watched our mouths around our elders because we knew we'd get a crack, belt or some shoe or slipper. We were proud of our close knit community and Zimbabwe will always be 'Home'. 'BORROWED' from Facebook!! ++++ BULAWAYO WATCHDOG.

Paul Hubbard will present a talk on 'Lobengula's Bulawayos'...and the plural "Bulawayos" is no typo! He will take you back in time to the beginning of our rich and vibrant history, to Lobengula's royal cities, and help you discover why Bulawayo is truly the City of Kings and Queens.There will be a sumptuous two-course dinner,and tickets are $25 per head, available from the Academy (cash or swipe machine) or by calling/whatsapping Violette on 0772851609 (Ecocash, cash, rtgs), with proceeds going to Dete and Entembeni Old Age Homes. THURSDAY 16 MARCH THE BANK JOB ROBERT SIBSON HALL AT 7.00 P.M. In September 1971, thieves tunnelled into the vault of a bank in London's Baker Street and looted safe deposit boxes of cash and jewellery worth over three million pounds. None of it was recovered. Nobody was ever arrested. The robbery made headlines for a few days and then disappeared. This film reveals what was hidden and involves murder, corruption and a sex scandal with links to the Royal Family... 'Maybe it's not the 100-percent truth - maybe it's half, or more, invented. But it's a damn good guess, and a ridiculously entertaining one.' [Flick Filosopher] 'The Bank Job shapes up as one of the liveliest entertainments of the year.' [New York Observer] Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m. FRIDAY 17 MARCH VERDI: I DUE FOSCARI ROBERT SIBSON HALL AT 6.30 P.M. Renato Bruson takes the role of the Venetian Doge Francesco Foscari in Verdi's dark, three-act tragedy based on a drama by Lord Byron set in 15th century Venice. Despite the opera's sombre plot, the music contains exhilarating forerunners of Verdi's later style - particularly in the fiercely virtuosic writing for the heroine Lucrezia and her magnificent duets with the Doge and her doomed husband. 'A splendid production, well sung and played with Renato Bruson outstanding as the Doge. A brooding, powerful and dark drama that should be much better known.' [Amazon.co.uk] 'Verdi's I due Foscari is a lusty and concise early work teeming with immediately appealing melodies that can set the pulse racing.' [International Record Review] Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval ($10.00) WEDNESDAY 22 MARCH HISTORY DINNER ZIMBABWE ACADEMY OF MUSIC AT 6.00 P.M. The second in the series of historical dinner talks will cover the early days of the present city of Bulawayo and the Matabele Rebellion though to 1920. There will again be two-course dinner,and tickets are $25 per head, available from the Academy (cash or swipe machine) or by calling/whatsapping Violette on 0772851609 (Ecocash, cash, rtgs), with proceeds going to Dete and Entembeni Old Age Homes. THURSDAY 23 MARCH ENIGMA. ROBERT SIBSON HALL AT 7.00 P.M. With a script by Tom Stoppard adapted from the novel by Robert Harris and starring Dougray Scott, Kate Winslet, Saffron Burrows and Tom Hollander, 'Enigma' is a 2001 film that is centred on the same historical events as the more recent 'The Imitation Game', but it takes a very different course with a story concerning the fictional Tom Jericho, a brilliant young man who soon raises the possibility of a spy within the British code-breakers' ranks, only then to find that his love, Claire, has disappeared... 'Enigma is a superior period drama with an intelligent Tom Stoppard script, a ripping yarn that recalls early Hitchcock classics... There are many reasons to admire this engrossing and literate movie.' [BBC] 'A riveting and surprisingly romantic ride.' [Rolling Stone] Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m. FRIDAY 24 MARCH PUCCINI: LA RONDINE ROBERT SIBSON HALL AT 6.30 P.M. 'La Rondine' ('The Swallow') was first performed on 27 March 1917 and is a mature masterpiece by Puccini that remains much less well known than most of his later operas, though Puccini himself felt sure his faith in the work would be justified by later generations: 'In the future', he said, 'they will see what a jewel it is!' 'I have never heard Alagna sing better, and Gheorghiu is at her sumptuous best. There are also beautiful performances by the younger couple, Marius Brenciu and Lisette Oropesa.' [New York Daily News] 'Sheer joy - this is a wonderful, practically peerless production of Puccini's long-neglected La Rondine.' [MusicWeb International - Recording of the Month] Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval ($10.00) SATURDAY 25 MARCH OSCARS AT THE ACADEMY: LA LA LAND ROBERT SIBSON HALL AT 6.30 P.M. As an Academy fund-raiser, there will be a special showing of the Oscar-winning film with a red carpet, snacks and drinks.
