A girl always has time to think when a girl is drying her hair !! After all it is a daily chore with my fine hair, and it is only during power cuts that I have to resort to yesterday's hair !! During an idle moment, I worked out that I must have spent three thousand nine hundred and thirty three hours recurring drying my hair during my life time !! Hair always plays a big part in a Girl's life ....... Mum had fiery red hair like her sister Corynne and the Morton twins were always noticeable at Chaplin School and in the various towns where Grandfather "Stomp" Morton was Mine Manager. Mum taught me a thing or two about hair i.e. hair brushes need to be washed every Sunday !! (Yawn) That must go into the Jilly Cooper Look Alike Book I am writing called "Life's Too Short!) But remember in THOSE days, we did not wash out hair every day, we probably washed it just once a week. When I was young Mother would go to the hairdresser every week on a Friday, come rain or shine ! The only time she had her hair washed was by the stylist and she would spend an euphoric hour reading women's magazines under the hair dryer (remember those awful hooded jobs that blew holes in your scalp and burnt your hairline !!) Eeek. The very worst were those hair rollers, they were actually metal as we were born before plastic was invented I think. !! The stylist (who was also your greatest friend and indeed confidant ) would take a giant spike and stick it through one of the tiny holes in each roller, normally straight into the scalp !! One always had to mindful of one's stylist as she /he had many items of torture at their disposal if not showered with chocloates and gifts ! Those perm rollers and lotion was a killer, that bathing cap with holes in that they used to use to prepare highlights was an excruciating weapon and they would burn, believe me they would burn - those nasty metal rollers. We did not have one of the nifty hand-held hair dryers used nowadays, if one did not go to the hairdresser, one put ones' own rollers in laboriously, although it was generally a two person affair, and then one would sit in the sun and wait for the hair to dry... Now that is just like watching paint dry, but then life was a lot more relaxed in those days. Mum bought me an actual HOOD dryer for my sixteenth birthday, but it had a wobbly pole which made it lean to the side, so a stiff neck always ensued after those laborious hair drying sessions. Hair styles have changed much over my particular many years ... being on TV a lot, I had to attend the hair dresser a lot, and two of my dearest friends were Roy and Raymond Brassington, who also became famous in those days and who could style a mean hair style !! My worst style was not the Dusty Springfield style nor the Cher style but that Audrey Hepburn style where one carried around a giant bouquet of curls on the top of ones head. That was painful, all those pins and clips stuck into your head, sometimes a "hairpiece" (today called an "extension" ) would be stuck in for more volume, and that hair style had to last one for a number of days. My friend Avril would wrap toilet paper round her curls on retiring to bed,but she was not married in those days ! Each curl was individually and with great intricacy curled and fixed securely enough to even withstand a rock and roll session !! Those hair extensions were a bit dodgy, if it was real human hair, whose hair was it once upon a time They did not have imitation hair in those days .... Unfortunately we did not inherit Mum's beautiful red mop, and dull mousey brown is easy to match ! I remember with great fondness Darryl McNeilage who was one of the top stylists, the beautiful Pia, and Yvonne from Mona Lis aamongst many great and colourful characters. Another awful product of the good old bad old days was hair spray "Lacquer" it was disgusting, the smell could anesthetize one for hours but it sure "Stuck like crazy" nothing, not even a tornado, could unstick those curls once "lacquer" had been liberally applied. We went through some torrid hair experiences like the "teazing" or back combing stage .... now this particular cult would result in your hair taking on a torpedo shape, a la Helen whogeemaflab, it was great for small people, as with a teazed hairdo and those platform shoes we used to wear, we could aspire to greater heights quite successfully. ! But back to washing the hair brushes, every week on a Sunday (yawn) Mother would carefully and painfully remove every single loose hair from the hair brush and then carefully and painfully, take the clump of hair out to the garden "to help the birds make their nests " ... HeeHoo has his favourite hairbrush that he values inordinately. It is plastic with stiff bristles and although I have bought him brushes from all over the world, nothing quite satisfies his head of hair like his old plastic brush. It is so old and has actually broken into three pieces and I have to hide it from the chambermaid if we stay in a posh hotel...... But life was easy in those days, a girl probably only had one brush and one comb - nowadays one has to have several round brushes in different sizes and if one's hair is washed every single day, surely the brushes do not need to be washed every Sunday Mother Dear ++++ Watchdog !! ++++ 2) Notices and Events Please be advised that the Bulawayo Island Hospice Services will be having a very big clearance sale on the 7th April 2018.

VICTORIA AND ABDUL The extraordinary true story of an unexpected friendship in the later years of Queen Victoria's (Judi Dench) remarkable rule. When Abdul Karim a young clerk, travels from India to participate in the Queen's Golden Jubilee, he is surprised to find favour with the Queen herself. As the Queen questions the constraints of her long-held position, the two forge an unlikely and devoted alliance with a loyalty to one another that her household and inner circle all attempt to destroy. 'The sizable constituency that turns out for glossy period drama of this kind will embrace the sumptuously appointed "Victoria & Abdul" as a moving account of an isolated old woman finding joy and lightness in her final years. [Hollywood Reporter] 'Enchanting, funny... a brilliant portrayal by Dame Judy.' [Daily Mail] 'Stunning photography, beautiful and funny story, A must see!' [Rotten Tomatoes] Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] FRIDAY 6 APRIL AT 7.00 P.M. CHICAGO The film version of 'Chicago' takes one of the longest-running musicals ever into fresh and expansive cinematic realms, adroitly moving from the reality of intrigue, rivalry and betrayal to spectacular fantasies of music and dance, offering tongue-in-cheek commentary on the cult of celebrity and the scandalous lengths to which people will go to attain it. 'What makes this more than a film of a great stage show is the way that the action spills seamlessly from the stage sets into real life. Magic.' [The Times] 'It's a totally unexpected film, and all the more welcome -- a modern reproduction that resurrects the spirit, look and sound of a great era of Hollywood professionalism.' [London Evening Standard] Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available from 6.00 p.m. ($10.00) THURSDAY 12 APRIL T 7.00 P.M. THE CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE [NO SUBTITLES] 'The desperate charge of 1854, immortalised by Tennyson, is etched deep in our national psyche as a blunder of heroic proportions. Tony Richardson's film of the event was a failure on release, but it's a great, unsung master-piece, filled with extraordinary set pieces and chillingly funny performances, notably from John Gielgud and Trevor Howard. It is a blistering satire on the British establishment - those bickering, blithering aristocrats who paid for their commissions and then picnicked as their men were mown down by Russian cannons. The charge itself evokes the terrible carnage as pure chaos. A stunner in every way.' [Radio Times,] 'The Charge of the Light Brigade' has lost none of its strength and remains a masterpiece of British cinema. [DVDClassik] 'This is a wonderful film on a huge scale.'. [Amazon] Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] FRIDAY 13 APRIL AT 7.00 P.M. THE NEW YORK CITY BALLET IN PARIS The New York City Ballet, with its collection of extraordinary dancers and its unique repertoire, is one of the most prestigious dance companies in the world. This exceptional production, performed in Paris after eight years of absence, revolves around three great French composers who inspired NYCB founder George Balanchine: Gounod, Ravel and Bizet. The four ballets performed perfectly encapsulate Balanchine's genius and his very own neo-classical style. A spectacular tribute to Balanchine, beautifully served by the breath-taking technique of these American dancers, who rank today among the best in the world! 'What a treat! The programme features two absolute masterpieces ("La Valse" and "Symphony in C"), one divertissement as only Balanchine could fabricate ("Walpurgisnacht Ballet"), and a throwaway pas de deux that achieves nobility in its simplicity ("Sonatine"). [Fanfare] 'Outstanding example of the genius of George Balanchine! - and this version of 'La Valse' is spectacular.' [Amazon.com] Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available from 6.00 p.m. ($10.00) ++++ 3) Congratulations ++++ 4) Condolences/In Memoriam/Wreath Funds It is with a very sad heart that I advise Mr. Clive Biffen passed away this morning.

Why I write to you is to ask if we could try to encourage Bulawayo residents to Cycle, Run, Walk, Walk the Relay, Endurobike, Whatever. See what you think. The Blog might give you more of an idea, but the relay makes it a truly achievable event. 6 people share the 500kms, walking at about 3kms a segment or split, 4 times in a day. There is one blog on last years, and lots of pics to inspire people/ We NEED Bulawayo to walk for THEIR SPCA! Last year Mutare supporters raised for ours about $15000. A further approximately $15k to 17k was raised, and (I am not the bean counter) I think Bulawayo got about $3400.... Some they raised themselves but the majority came from a category we created called Least Funded, and we distributed to other SPCAs. I sure, if prompted, more would look at the website and contact us for help and encouragement. And all funds could go to your SPCA. Please dont ask if I have asked your SPCA direct...
