Morning Mirror Edition 615 - 2/12/2014


In this edition


1) Editorial

The Bulawayo Fountain

Leopold Takawira, formerly Selborne Avenue, is my road, I undoubtedly own it, I have driven into town along Takawira almost every day of my lengthy life!!

I know every palm, every palm swift, every wall, every shadow and nuance of the Centenary Park. I was there when it was opened by the Queen Mother in 1953, I waved my Union Jack energetically along with hundreds of school children. I watched the two shy princesses receive their diamond and silver Flame Lily Brooches.

I watched the glorious park, written about in history books, destroyed by the ravages of drought and neglect. For many years it was advisable to wear horse blinkers when driving up the road, as the ruination was just too much to bear.

However as we speak, a beautiful phoenix is rising from the ashes!!

A largish area surrounding the fountain, where the Friday weddings are traditionally filmed, has become a virtual paradise once again.

Not quite Kew Gardens, not quite the park that Municipal Horticulturalist Bob Hardman envisaged, but mighty pretty just the same.

The lawns are green, verdant and well mowed, and every flowerbed is festooned with neatly, almost regimentally planted in single file, giant orange cannas!! There are literally hundreds of them and they are all in flower right now. Along with the bright orange marmalade buses, rows and rows of brilliant red salvia bushes, they are a sight to behold indeed.

Bus loads of school children were there, in their emerald green pinnies, playing happily and enthusiastically on the soft green lawns, while every Friday and some Saturdays, wedding parties enjoy their photographic experiences around the fountain.

Somedays the trash is awful outside the park, but if one tries to pretend that the white plastic bags are snowdrops and the styrene cartons are daffodils and one feels a whole lot better about one's fellow man.



2) Notices and Events

SNAKE DEMONSTRATION & EDUCATIONAL TALK

Join us at The Hillside Dams Bulawayo on Saturday the 6th of December for our snake demonstration and talk. This is going to be slightly different to most other talks and should be quite entertaining.

Our Goal is to address a lot of the common Myths and misconceptions around snakes and also to answer common questions so as to empower you and enable you to keep safe.

Entrance is $5 per person and children under 10 are free. This is entrance to the talk only and is payable at the Ampitheatre gate. You will still need to pay entrance to the dams as usual.

Zimbabwe Snake Handlers is a non-profit organisation set up for the conservation of reptiles, education of public and the safe relocation of unwanted snakes. Currently it is wholly funded by Ross Johnstone and Paul Teasdale. Please help support their work by attending this event and donating towards this cause wherever possible


PRH Zimbabwe is presenting workshops on the 12th December and on the 9th and 10th January,

12th December this 1 day workshop "Becoming Your Own Best Friend" will help you to get in touch with the positive qualities within yourself.. You will be more able to feel freedom and be able to make better choices in your life.

On the 9th and 10th January we will be presenting a 2 day workshop on "Discovering the Core of My Identity". This workshop will help you to develop a better understanding of how the image we have of ourselves can be very negative and limiting. And that there is a hidden core of positive qualities and potentials that we need to uncover to live more true to ourselves and to experience more peace and happiness in our lives.

"Would you like to save the world from the degradation and destruction it seems destined for Then step away from shallow mass movements and quietly go to work on your own self-awareness. If you want to awaken all of humanity, then awaken all of yourself. If you want to eliminate the suffering in the world, then eliminate all that is dark and negative in yourself. Truly, the greatest gift you have to give is that of your own self-transformation" - Lao Tzu

PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO AND THE ACADEMY

ACADEMY SHOWCASE
Wednesday 3 December in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.00 p.m.
Soloists, choirs and instrumental groups together with guest performers join
together for the Academy's end-of-year concert including the first
performance in Zimbabwe of Olly Cox's 'We Can Fly', specially written for
the Commonwealth Games.

DON QUIXOTE - BALLET
Friday 5 December in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
The ballet 'Don Quixote' was first performed at Moscow's Bolshoi Theatre in
1869, produced and choreographed by Marius Petipa. Carlos Acosta, having
danced in it all over the world, responded immediately when he was invited
to revive the ballet for the Royal Opera House and for 21st century
audiences. Whilst concerned to preserve its basic classical style, he wanted
to overlay a freer more spontaneous element, injecting more colour, more
humour, something of spontaneous fun and pantomime even...
'At last the choreography finally matches the story and the
passionate music; Marianela Nuņez is magnificent as Kitri and the dancers
are on fire! Acosta's sublime choreography transcends EVERY version that
went before it - with real Flamenco guitarists on the stage in Act 2!'
[Amazon review]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members]
Dinner available during the interval ($10.00)

GONE WITH THE WIND
Thursday 11 December in the Robert Sibson Hall at N.B 6.30 p.m.
'Period romance. War epic. Family saga. Popular fiction adapted with
crowd-pleasing brilliance. Star acting aglow with passion and charisma.
Movie-making craft at its height. These are sublimely joined in the words
"Gone with the Wind".' So ran the publicity for one of the most famous films
ever made which was released exactly 75 years ago on 15 December 1939.
Admission:$3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.00 p.m.

A CAROL SERVICE
Friday 12 December in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.

Service to the Academy with a mixture of well-loved carols and hymns for

Baye Laye will confront many perils in order to reach the distant coasts of
Europe.
A profoundly moving story about hopes and dreams to be watched in family and

4) Condolences/In Memoriam/Wreath Funds

Please be advised that the funeral service for The late Gordon Leslie Norman will be held on Wednesday 3rd December at 10:00 am. at The Anglican Church of Ascension, Kent Road, Hillside, Bulawayo.


Aubrey Sinclair Daunt. Mr Daunt was a lovely caring man. He passed away aged 88 at Bournemouth Hospital, UK in March 2014. He was buried on the 21st November 2014 after 8 months of trying to find next of kin. The only information I have of Aubrey Daunt is that he was born in Britain, lived in South Africa and then Zimbabwe, where he worked for Zeco and then Morse Steel. If you have any information of the whereabouts of late Aubrey Daunts family please contact me at umguza@hotmail.com


We are so sad to advise of the passing away of Captain Adrian Suskin. Adrian was a pilot (of Boeing 747 and 757 planes) at UPS and a frequent visitor to Bulawayo, the place of his birth. He loved the bush and wildlife and spent much of his time at the game reserve. He was also an extremely generous benefactor of ZIMKIDS trust based in Pumula. A kind, very funny man who battled cancer for 7 years with dignity and great courage. His popularity is legendary and the tributes have poured in from all over the world.


John Lane Manning went home to be with God on Monday 24th November. A true, highly principled husband, Dad, grandfather and great grandfather. We all loved and respected him greatly as he guided our lives. We will miss you.

7) Bulawayo News

AN OVERVIEW OF THE BULAWAYO WATER SITUATION - 2015 GOING FORWARDS

Inflow into our dams has not yet started, so here are some preliminary
indications:
Assuming no major inflows to our dams before the end of December (not
unusual) it looks as though we will end this year with our dams on
approximately 64-65% overall of full capacity, which is 30% better than a
year ago, so that is good news.

There is also a very good chance that Insiza and Mtshabezi will spill
again this season - Insiza will be on about 85% when the inflows start and
15% is not a lot to gain in a whole season - average inflow for a season
is 40%, so even a relatively poor season will bring it to spilling or
near spilling. Mtshabezi will be about 92% so should easily gain the
necessary to spill.

The aquifer rehabilitation should also see an increased supply to the city
from a daily average of 2 ML/day to 6 ML/day - not a lot in the whole
scheme of things (average daily consumption is now around 140 ML/day) but
it does take a bit of pressure off the City Council's ability to maintain
adequate supply/pressure in the Western Suburbs.

The good thing going forward is that the three reasonably constant and
reliable sources mentioned above can supply about 70 ML/day - slightly
more than 50% of our current needs and about 70% of our rationed needs in
poor times - this makes for a much better scenario than that of the period
2011/12/13. There doesn't therefore seem to be much likelihood of water
shedding for the next 3-4 years.

For the present (and this is not likely to be eased), the daily ration
remains unchanged (750 litres/day low density and 500 litres/day high
density) and the ban on the use of hosepipes remains in force.
Construction and related activities must not be carried out using the
municipal supply.

Thanks to good management by our City Fathers, we are actually better off
than most large cities in Southern Africa.

Dear Member

Have you noticed how many firms in the industrial sites and also in the city centre, have painted their premises and how attractive they are. Take a fresh look when you walk around Bulawayo and note what a bright, colourful city it is especially now with the flamboyant trees in bloom. A good example is the Princess Flats in corner Fort Street and 9th Avenue. How cheerful it looks. The Bulawayo Centre is being spruced up and refurbished and is attracting several new businesses.

Lets us try and look for the positive things about Bulawayo and not the negative side. An enterprising Bulawayo businessman stated that company closure created business opportunities for him and believed that there were still opportunities for investment here.

Forever African Safaris, which operates luxury mobile tented and walking safaris throughout Zimbabwe, has recently set up a luxury mobile tented camp situated just 2km inside the Matopos National Park on the left hand side as you enter the park. Rowallan Camp, as it is named, comprises East African A-frame tents, each with ensuite bathroom. Guests on an all-inclusive basis are offered unlimited activities, which will include game drives, horse and cycling safaris, birding safaris and rock climbing, as well as a 'sundowner' in the bush with champagne, strawberries and cream. For more information contact your travel agents or email sales@foreverafricansafaris.com phone 246968 or 0712 648 328. As this is a mobile camp, you will need to book in advance if you wish to go there. Also great for a 'rustic' wedding.

Afrikho Lodges in Livingstone Road Suburbs, and 4th Avenue/Samuel Parirenyatwa Street, a fairly recent addition to accommodation in Bulawayo, offers executive single or double suites, which comprise bedrooms, lounges, luxury bathroom and small kitchen. There is a professional chef in attendance, laundry service, secure parking and Wi-fi Internet. Email info@arikhosuites.co.zw Tel 78890 or 0716 897 957, for bookings.

Never let it be said that there is nothing happening in Bulawayo - just check your Bulawayo Notice Board or Morning Mirror - and you will see that there is always sort of some entertainment going on every weekend and during the week.IN DECEMBER, the Bulawayo Motoring Club has all day motor and motorcycle races at its course on the Falls Road on Saturday 6. Competitors from Botswana, South Africa and Zimbabwe will be taking part. There will also be entertainment for the whole family.

The Bulawayo Theatre Club production this year will be 'Beauty and the Beast', running from 5th to 13th December with matinees on certain Sundays.

You are invited to a Food and Drink Festival at Hillside Dams on Sunday 7th starting at 11 a.m. There will be a champagne and beer tent, wine tasting, food, live music and plenty of activities for the children.

Carols by Candlelight, sponsored by the Rotary Club of Bulawayo and Bulawayo Performing Arts, will be holding Carols by Candlelight on Tuesday 9th December at the Amphitheatre in the park starting at 7p.m. but catering starts at 5.30 p.m. There will be a choir of over 300 as well as the Salvation Army band. There will also be Carols by Candlelight at Musketeers Lodge on Saturday 6 December starting about 6.30p.m

********

Indaba Book Cafe in J Tongogara Street/ 9th Avenue offers a selection of appetizing health dishes as well as various health drinks, a combination of fruit and veges. If you are on a detoxifying regime, this is the place to go. There is also a sale of children's and adult books in the book section and you can swap your books.

On the subject of books, the SPCA shop is desperately looking for books and magazines for resale. Also on the subject of books, Ascot Library in the Ascot Shopping Centre has a good selection of adult and children's books. The library is being well used by the children. It will be so sad if it has to close. The Bulawayo community is actually very generous in coming up with fund-raising ideas in order to clothe and feed the needy. Cafe Munandi in collaboration with 'l Am Bible Distribution', which is a non profit making organization, holds a weekly feeding programme every Thursday from 1 to 3 p.m. when bread, soup, Bibles and clothing is distributed to the less fortunate. If you can support this programme, please call Joyce Moyo on 0777 847 432 or drop donations at Cafe Munandi, 8th Ave, Fife Street which is open until 8 p.m. There are so many unsung donors in Bulawayo who support various Homes and Shelters as well as individuals, from their own pockets.

THE BULAWAYO PUBLICITY ASSOCIATION WISHES ALL ITS MEMBERS AND SUPPORTERS A JOYFUL FESTIVE SEASON AND SUCCESS IN ALL THEIR ENDEAVOURS.

Khulu Ivory - Our legacy of luxury

Khulu Ivory meaning 'Grandfather of Ivory' & was first opened in April 2013 as another quintessential, rustic but luxurious addition to The Amalinda Collection with the view of giving our guests a more secluded, private safari experience.

The response from guests staying at Khulu was phenomenal with only positive reviews being shared of their experiences at the new lodge, with headlines such as 'Fantastic Family-Run Gem,' 'A very special and personal place' and 'Simply..PERFECT, you have to be there to know this' from guests who had come from far and wide, ranging from Durban, South Africa to Isle of Man in the UK and Brussels Belgium - Khulu was a big hit within the Amalinda Collection portfolio.
Sadly, just over a year later in May 2014, Khulu Ivory burnt to the ground due to an electrical fire. A tragic loss but luckily nobody was hurt.

Almost immediately, the grandfather himself, Ceddy, started rebuilding his legacy and our quintessential gem, in order to revive the spirit and grandeur of this special place for future travellers to experience. Khulu Ivory re-opened its doors on 21st August 2014 and we invite you to come and experience our legacy of luxury.

We are offering you the opportunity to come and share our story whilst you experience the magnificence of Khulu Ivory this December for only $500 per person for 2 nights sharing - Fully Inclusive for SADC & Zimbabwe Residents. T&C's apply.

WILDLIFE & ENVIRONMENT ZIMBABWE
TAKE PLEASURE IN ANNOUNCING THE ARRIVAL OF MIKE BIRCH'S FIRST TIME BOOK OF POETRY, "HOW SMALL WE ARE"
Coffee Table Book of Poetry (Size 32 x 23cms)

We are delighted to inform you that Mike Birch's book of 33 thought provoking poems and against each poem stunning photographs by Suzi Mann has arrived in Bulawayo.

Mike, also known as Will, was brought up in Bulawayo: having a passion for music, exploring the African bush, fishing the great rivers, boating on Lake Kariba, interacting with the wildlife and stalking of trout in the Eastern Highlands of Zimbabwe, all this contributing to a lifetime of experience which has given rise to the poems in this book. Mike hopes that readers will share the strong sense of true meaning, reality and abstract that his work conveys.

ETERNITY
She shines, with flowers, astride forest track,
sweetened by mist and breeze,
sheltered in hills of pine and oak,
strong roots, to nurture her needs.

A seed that soared ..

Don't Be Little
Be Big!

Laugh with the dumbest!
Dance with the One Legged!
Embrace the ugly!

Spew happiness....
Stay away from the the lead weight paint.

So easy to apply,
But with every stroke....
Taking the colour from the sky.

Words can be killer sharp.

Who Cares if the i's are dotted or the t's crossed,
If you are expressing words from the depths of your soul.
If you're trying with all you're might to help someone in need.

A job is never too little if it helps another soul.

Don't Be Little

BE BIG!


As Zimbabweans lets live for what tomorrow has to offer, not what yesterday has already taken away.
