I was reading a blog entitled "The Chief Baboon" yesterday and one of the Chief's contributors, (aptly named "Igundwane") called me "Quite a patronising and empirical old woman" !!! Well I ask you !! That sort of description applies to someone like Queen Victoria !! I do apologise if I appear patronising, I often write with Tongue-in-Cheek and that lends itself oddly to a form of patronization ... but "Empirical" I shall have to look that one up in the dictionary !! Of course it is all Paddy Vickery's fault ... she was my very special English teacher who taught us all to love the English language. I remember those dreamy sultry school mornings, the stifling summer heat forgotten, as she, in that incredible mellifluous voice, talked us through the Wind in the Willows, winding us down the river lazily with Ratty and Otter and Mr Badger. I always wished I could write a column in the Chronicle, remember that one Martin Lee used to do - "The Chief"? The Herald equivalent was "Cabbages and Kings" and here all the spicy, racy and risque side of the two cities would be presented in a most amusing, "T.I.C" manner. Now there was an "empirical" man !! Cheek.... very aptly named Igundwane is ! Those personalities of days gone by were all English aficionados, we was well taught at school we woz!! Do you remember James Thrush, what a glorious man, his incredible military bearing, his meticulous attention to detail? He was my mentor and how I adored him. We would do radio programs together in the Montrose RBC studios and he would very rarely smile that stern encouraging smile, only once or twice to keep me going during the most arduous radio show. Then there was Ken Jackson, I am not sure what his English claim to fame was but I do remember he would wear his slippers to read the news on telly. The top half of him was immaculate, but under the desk, in the freezing studio, were those snug, rather tatty, carpet slippers. Alport Mhlanga was one of my very favourite TV presenters. Here was a man of incredible intelligence. He could speak about 8 languages and play the same number of musical instruments. We could talk for hours about African Folklore and Traditions. How I miss those days in his gentle company as he guided me through some of the rather headstrong days in my youth. And then of course there is the Grand Old Man of Television and Radio - Peter Rollason. Such a gifted man, so articulate, so incomparably musical, such an authority on wildlife and nature. To listen to him deliver an eulogy or undertake a commentary on an important event like the Queen's Birthday Parade or the Opening Ceremony of the Trade Fair was a sheer delight. His beautiful diction, his impeccable elocution was a delight to hear and he alone could conjure up verbally all the pomp and ceremony of a special occasion. There are so many delicious columns in so many publications. HeeHoo loved to read Jeffrey Bernard's "Low Life" column in the Spectator, especially when Jeffrey could not manage his weekly task due to being "indisposed" which resulted in that wonderful West End Play "Jefrey Bernard is Unwell". HeeHoo was inconsolable when Jeffrey died and not even Taki's "High Life" column could assuage his grief !! Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa: even famous columnists can make the occasional error. There is a great deal of artistic license in my articles, but if you know of anyone who would like to have me as a resident columnist, I am empirically challenged but literally available !! ++++++++ 2) NOTICES CHECK OUT THE MORNING MIRROR WEBSITE FOR AMAZING PHOTO OF KARIBA DAM 110% FULL !!

The Gospel of Luke is the story of Jesus, memorized word for word from the Bible and told with the passion and surprise of an eyewitness account. The show premiered at the acclaimed Actor's Theatre of Louisville (one of America's largest professional theaters) to rave reviews and an extended run. The text is the Authorized (King James) Version, which takes to the stage like Shakespeare. The Acts of the Apostles is the story of the first church in the words of the first believers. Wearing modern clothing and using modern idioms, the actor captures the immediacy and relevancy of the first century stories, collected and edited by Luke as the sequel to his Gospel. The text is based on Eugene Peterson's vibrant translation The Message *. +++++ Bulawayo Boy Ross Cooper has written another great book.

Carriages: 9.15 p.m. There were several who missed Das Rheingold and would like to see it so a repeat showing has been arranged. Lunchtime Talk: Richard Hartnack Thursday 2 July in Room 25 at 1.10 p.m. Entry by donation. Wagner: Die Walküre Act III/Siegfried Act I Friday 3 July in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. There will be a supper interval. Carriages: 10.15 p.m. The last act of Die Walküre is one of the peaks of the whole tetralogy, ending with Wotan's farewell to his beloved daughter, Brünnhilde, whilst the first act of Siegfried culminates in the thrilling scene when the hero forges anew his father's sword Notung. Tickets: R10.00. Beethoven Monday 6 July at 5.15 p.m. in the Robert Sibson Hall Another film in the BBC Great Musicians series. Entry by donation. Lunchtime Talk: Peter Rollason Thursday 9 July in Room 25 at 1.10 p.m. Entry by donation. Verdi: Nabucco Friday 10 July in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. There will be a supper interval. Carriages: 10.00 p.m. Perhaps the best-known of Verdi's early operas, largely because of the Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves, Nabucco concerns the Biblical king Nebuchadnezzar and calls for some spectacular staging, not least the destruction of the Temple of Solomon. It calls for equally spectacular singing with the role of Abigail in particular known for its fearsome demands on the soprano. This Met production was mounted in 2001 for the centenary of Verdi's death and the New York Times noted that "everything is natural, songful, crisp and sonorous". Tickets: R10.00. A three-course dinner is available to order at US$10.00. Soire Bon Vivant (11 July) Saturday 11 July at the Academy at 6.30 p.m. A celebration of Bastille Day with fine wine, fine cheese, French delicacies and fantastique musique played by Elizabeth French, Brian Hartnack, Billy St.John, Peter Rollason and Jill Wild.

Marimba Competition (17 July) Friday 17 July in the Robert Sibson Hall at 9.00 a.m. In the Academy's annual Marimba Competition schools will this year compete on the African National Anthem, Nkosi Sikeleli Africa - God Bless Africa. Everyone is welcome to attend and there is no admission charge. Wagner: Siegfried Acts II and III Friday 17 July in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. There will be a supper interval. Carriages: 10.15 p.m. Siegfried has many of the elements of legendary tales throughout the ages, tasks, riddles and supernatural messages. The guileless hero who has never known fear, having re-forged Notung, slays Fafner as he guards the horde of gold, takes the Ring and Tarnhelm, encounters Wotan and shatters his spear before he finally passes through the magic fire to awaken Brünnhilde from her enchanted sleep. All this is thrillingly depicted in the Met's production and is fully matched by the glorious singing of Hildegard Behrens as Brünnhilde, James Morris as Wotan and Siegfried Jerusalem as Siegfried himself. Tickets: R10.00. . +++++++++++++ 3) ROSES AND RASPBERRIES Cara Black - Womens Doubles finals of Wimbledon, Mixed Doubles Finals Wimbledon 2009.

USED IN SOUTH AFRICA The criminals dress in black and cover themselves in black bags and then get into your property (or wait on the pavement). When SAPS or the neighbourhood watch drive past the criminals crouch down on the ground to make it look like a full black rubbish bag. SAPS etc ignore the "black bags" and drive past. The criminals then either wait for the home owner to come home - to hijack them or proceed to break into the house. Please be aware and beware of "moving" black bags!!! particularly on rubbish removal days. The neighbourhood watch member who noticed this wouldn't have known any different if one of the bags hadn't moved and if he wasn't vigilant.. +++++++++++++ 4) CONGRATULATIONS To Kerry ( nee Muir ) and Jason McGregor Congratulations on the safe arrival of Cody Grant McGregor .
