    NUMBERS INCREASE: RESIDENTS THREATENED

    Vagrants turn violent

    LEON STEENKAMP

    A

    s the number of vagrants in Table

    View increases it seems their harass-

    ing of residents is also becomingmore

    threatening.

    One such area that is plagued by vagrants

    is a public open space in Central Park, Park-

    lands.

    A resident of a neighbouring block of flats

    is now scared towalk outside alone after she

    decided to voice her displeasure about the

    vagrants that sleep in this park overnight.

    I started chasing them away after a

    neighbour of mine was robbed by a group of

    vagrants, says the womanwho asked to not

    be identified.

    Threats to poison some residents dogs

    have also caused her to back off.

    I have heard that members of the 26 and

    28 prison gangs are also among these va-

    grants, she adds.

    Threats

    A local security guard has also brought

    the wrath of the vagrants upon himself after

    trying to show them the road.

    Whenever they come to sleep here I

    would chase them away so they now know

    my face. They started threateningme, it was

    in Afrikaans and I didnt understand it, but

    one of the guys told me: They say they are

    going to stab you, says Jacques Ntenga,

    who has been a guard at one of the residen-

    tial complexes for the past two months.

    Recently whenmy girlfriend came to vis-

    it me, they threatened her with a screwdriv-

    er and I told her not come here again, says

    Ntengawho is originally from theDemocrat-

    ic Republic of Congo.

    Lt Elizabeth Munro, spokesperson for the

    Table View police says the problemwith the

    vagrants is an ongoing one.

    We together with Complex Patrols have

    regular patrols in this area in Parklands.

    She says although the majority of the va-

    grants are people focused on scavenging

    through rubbish bins for goods to sell to re-

    cycling companies, there are some criminal

    elements.

    Criminals

    Wehave found stolen goods in the posses-

    sion of some of these vagrants and there are

    criminals among them who pose as beg-

    gars, she said.

    She added that they believe that the use

    of gang graffiti on some walls was a way of

    deterring people from chasing them away.

    We think they might be using this to try

    and intimidate the work of the Table View

    Neighbourhood Watch as well, she says.

    Shelter

    A local business owner Anthony Kettle

    confirms it is a difficult situation.

    They are found in the whole of Park-

    lands, wherever there is shelter from the

    wind and rain.

    We find them sleeping in our doorway

    and they leave a lot of rubbish behind, says

    Kettle who runs a martial arts gym in Vil-

    lage Walk.

    He too has been threatened on one occa-

    sion.

    Members of the police mortu

    discovered in the stormwater

    canal on the corner of Blaauw

    berg Road and Otto du Plessis

    on Monday afternoon. Members

    of the Table View police were

    stopped by pedestrians at 12:10

    and alerted to a body lying in

    the canal. Upon investigation

    police found the body of a

    known male vagrant of the

    Table View area lying on his

    stomach in the shallow water.

    FROM PAGE 1

    One guy has pulled a knife onme but I gave

    him a smack and that sorted it out. They

    have broken some of the gymswindows and

    spraypainted on the walls.

    They are not overly aggressive but if they

    have been drinking and you dont want to

    give them money, they can be difficult. You

    also dont want to be too aggressive with

    them and chase them away because then

    your place gets broken into.

    Kettle is however sympathetic towards

    the vagrants.

    Rubbish

    There is no place for them to go and

    where can the police move them to? If they

    move on from this area, they just become

    some elses problem.

    If they were neater it would not be such

    a big problem. I have seen trucks pulling in-

    to the area onweekends. These guys buy the

    recyclable goods from the vagrants and all

    the rubbish that they have stripped off then

    simply gets left behind.

    Thewomanwhoworks forme, cleans the

    area twice a day. The rubbish has become

    so bad I wait until the end of the month and

    then I have to hire a trailer to remove all of

    it.

    Munro says members of the Displaced

    Peoples Unit regularly join them during

    their operations.

    Manyof thesevagrantshavehomes inAt-

    lantis but others have grown up on the

    streets of Table View. Most of them do not

    want tobe replaced. It isusually a futile exer-

    cise to try and get them off the streets, she

    explained.

    This problem was addressed during a

    large scale joint operationbetween theTable

    View Community Police Forum (CPF), Ta-

    ble View Neighbourhood Watch, Law En-

    forcement and local police last week.

    We have cleaned out the areas where the

    vagrants sleep like Leonardo Park, behind

    theKFC (at theLifestyleCentre) andCentral

    Park, said Ken Spies, CPF chairman for

    subgroup twowhich includesParklands and

    Sunningdale.

    Alcohol

    Another big problem is however the

    drinking that goes on at Leonardo Park dur-

    ing the day. The vagrants buy cheap wine

    there and then sit on the pavements and har-

    ass passersby. We have had numerous com-

    plaints from residents of the River Glade Re-

    tirement Village about vagrants harassing

    them for money, Spies explains.

    This is however a law enforcement issue.

    The problem is 10minutes after law enforce-

    ment leaves the area, the vagrants are back.

    Strategy needed

    The neighbourhood watch and CPF can

    only monitor the situation. It is an ongoing

    exercise and is dependant on our number of

    volunteers and resources. The council has

    to decide how they are going to address this

    vagrancy issue in an area that is probably

    one of the fastest growing areas in the Cape.

    We dont have a homeless shelter or a

    community court and the city needs to pro-

    vide a strategy to address the social-econom-

    ic side of this problem.

    At this stage the neighbourhood watch

    and CPF are not solving the problem we are

    only moving it around, Spies says.

    ANDR BAKKES

    Michelle Smit (21) van die Eric Miles-

    Cheshire-huis in Milnerton kan nou op

    haar eie rolstoel deur die gange van di te-

    huis jaag, te danke aan verskeie Rotarir-

    klubs en Solidariteit Helpende Hand.

    Die gestremdeMichelle is verjeug dat sy

    nou uiteindelik n gerieflike rolstoel het.

    Ek kon amper nooit skoene gedra het

    nie, wantmyvoete rus nie gemaklik op die

    ou ene nie. Die stoel wat ek voor hierdie

    een gehad het, was meer gemaklik, maar

    ek het dikwels agteroorgeval, verduide-

    lik sy.

    Michelle glo sy sal nie dieselfde proble-

    me ervaar met die nuwe rooi Ferrari,

    soos een van die skenkers skertsend daar-

    na verwys het, nie.

    Michelle was amper ses jaar gelede in n

    motorongeluk op die N1. Sy het nie net die

    vermo verloor om te stap nie, maar ook

    haar niggie en krel aan die dood afge-

    staan.

    Sedertdien was dit een groot gesukkel

    om van punt A tot punt B te kom.

    Erika Botha-Rossouw, die streeksorga-

    niseerder (Wes-Kaap) van Solidariteit Hel-

    pende Hand, het die plaaslike Rotarirs in

    kennis gestel van Michelle se probleem.

    Ek kenMichelle sedert 2010 toe ek haar

    ontmoet het in moeilike omstandighede.

    Liret Swanepoel van Solidariteit het ook

    betrokke geraak en selfs vir Michelle n

    partytjie gehou met haar 21ste verjaars-

    dag!

    Die Helpende Hand-streekkantoor het

    reeds in 2011 bydie tehuis betrokkegeraak

    en verskeie verbeteringe aangebring om

    die inwoners se lewensgehalte te verbeter.

    Helpende Hand het die lewensomstan-

    dighede van Michelle verbeter deur haar

    in die tehuis te plaas en haar kamer op te

    knap.

    Verlede jaar is van die ander kamers

    ook verbeter.

    Ons het geweet dat die inwoners van

    die tehuis dikwels afhanklik is van die

    staat se karige ongeskiktheidspensioen,

    s Erika.

    Die pensioen is skaars voldoende om

    hul verblyf te betaal en laat nie veel oor

    vir enigiets anders nie.

    In die volgende drie weke sal die Rotari-

    ers 110 rolstoele oorhandig aan behoefti-

    ges inKaapstad te dankeaandie Internasi-

    onale Rotarir-rolstoelstigting.

    bergRotarirs) staan hier agter Michelle Smit, wat hier nog sit in haar ou rolstoel. Langs

    A big hello: The presence of whales late in the year allowed Bloubergstrand photographer Teneal Gerry to grab this shot last Thursday.

    whales stayed with the paddlers for quite some time, Teneal said. PHOTO: TENEAL GERRY

    TANDYLEE MARINUS

    Sea rescue personnel had to assist a canoe-

    ist on Monday afternoon after he ran into

    trouble along the Milnerton coast.

    Christiaan Beyers (23) from Loevenstein

    suffered hypothermia after his canoe sunk

    close to Woodbridge Island.

    Frantically waving his arms and shout-

    ing for help, Beyers caught the attention of

    a person sitting on their balconywho called

    in the distress call to the NSRI.

    Station commander Rhine Barnes of the

    National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) in

    Melkbosstrand, said they were alerted to

    the situation at about 14:30. After dispatch-

    ing the rescue boat they foundBeyers adrift

    half a kilometrenorth of theMinerton light-

    house opposite the Sunset Links Golf Es-

    tate.

    We arrived at the scene and Christiaan

    was very hypothermic and cold, but unin-

    jured.

    Michael Mcdonald (19) who was playing

    golf at the Milnerton Golf course also no-

    ticed Beyers predicament and rushed to

    the beach to help.

    Medical personnel arrived at the scene

    shortly after and transported Beyers to the

    Milnerton Mediclinic. He was discharged

    on Monday evening.

    Barnes confirmed that Beyers had forgot-

    ten to insert a bung, which is a type of

    drainage plug in the hull of the canoe.

    Barnes said although it is an uncommon

    mistake, it just illustrates how important it

    is to have the necessary equipment.

    Whats important is that he did have a

    life jacket on but he should have had flares

    which would have helped a lot, Barnes

    said.

    He also advised otherwatersport enthusi-

    asts to inform friends or family when they

    are going out onto the ocean.

    Tell them how long youwill be andwhat

    time you are expected to be back, this will

    allow them to notify emergency services if

    something happens, he explained.

    V The Melkbosstrand NSRI is currently recruiting

    new members from ages 16 and up. Anyone inter

    ested can contact Rhine Barnes on 082 990 5958.

    Nuwe waardasies vir al 850 000 eiendomme

    in die Stad Kaapstad word van 1 Julie ge-

    bruik vir die berekening van eiendomsbe-

    lasting.

    Eiendomseienaars sal van 14 Februarie

    af kennisgewings ontvangoorwat dienuwe

    waardasie vanhul eiendomme is. Diwaar-

    dasies is gebaseer op die waarde van eien-

    domme op 1 Julie 2012. Altesame 600 000 re-

    sidensile eiendomme is gewaardeer. Dit

    sluit nie die sowat 15 000 deeltitel-eiendom-

    me in nie.

    Volgens Leonore van der Walt, stads-

    raadslid vir wyk 2, sal die nuwe eiendom-

    swaardasies van 1 Julie vanjaar gebruik

    word om eiendomsbelasting vas te stel.

    Dit beteken nie dat eiendomsbelasting

    met dieselfde persentasie gaan toeneem as

    wat die onderskeie eiendomme in waarde

    toegeneem het nie, het sy ges. Die stads-

    raad begroot wat die eiendomsbelasting vir

    die nuwe boekjaar van 1 Julie 2013 tot 30

    Junie 2014 sal wees. Eiendomsbelasting

    word hiervolgens op die nuwe eiendoms-

    waardes bereken.

    Eiendomseienaarswatnie saamstemmet

    die nuwe waardasies nie, kry vanjaar twee

    en n half maande tyd om beswaar aan te

    teken. Ingevolge wetgewing moet eiendom-

    seienaars 30 dae tyd vir besware gegee

    word. Die beswaartydperk is van 21 Febru-

    arie tot 30 April.

    Die nuwe waardasies sal op die Stad se

    webtuiste beskikbaar wees. Geen besware

    wat na 30 April ontvangword,mag ingevol-

    ge wetgewing deur die munisipaliteit oor-

    weeg word nie, waarsku Leonore.

    Eienaars van eiendomme sal van 14 Fe-

    bruarie deur die munisipaliteit oor die nu-

    we waardasies ingelig word. Daar is alte-

    saam 17 munisipale punte waar die beswa-

    re ingedien kan word. Die munisipale

    geboue in Parow en Bellville en die burger-

    sentrum in Kaapstad is van hulle.

    Indien beswaar gemaak word teen n

    waardasie, word die belasting op die nuwe

    waardasie gehef totdat die beswaar afge-

    handel is. Daar kan beswaar gemaak word

    teen enigiets waarmee die eienaar nie

    saamstem nie. Selfs huurders kan beswaar

    maak. Iemand kan ook by n munisipale

    kantoor beswaar maak teen die waardasie

    van n eiendom in sy omgewing. Indien n

    eiendom uit die waardasierol weggelaat is,

    word eiendomsbelasting terugwerkend

    van 1 Julie 2013 af bereken sodra dit regge-

    stel word.

    Besware teen die waardasies van Julie

    2006 het twee jaar geneem om afgehandel

    te word en die besware teen Julie 2009 se

    waardasies een jaar. Hierdie keer mik ons

    na ses maande om besware af te handel.

    Elke detailwat opdie vormsgevraword,

    moet ingevul word, anders kan n deurdag-

    te evaluasie van die besware nie gemaak

    word nie. Ons het n regsmening hieroor in-

    gewin. Dit is belangrik. Enigiemand wat

    sukkel om die beswaarvorms in te vul, sal

    deur munisipale amptenare gehelp word.

    Eiendomseienaars kan ook insae kry in die

    verkooppryse van eiendomme in hul omge-

    wing, s Leonore.

    The City of Cape Town has strengthened its

    partnership with the Southern African

    Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal

    Birds (Sanccob).

    This foundation is responsible for preser-

    ving South Africas vulnerable seabird spe-

    cies, including the African penguin.

    The past theme for World Environment

    Awareness, where the city participated

    withvarious educational drives about envi-

    ronmental resource management, also fo-

    cused on the effects of pollution and climate

    change on polar ecosystems, and the ensu-

    ing consequences around the world.

    Chairperson of De Grendel Subcouncil,

    JamesVos, explains that all types of polluti-

    on are key factors in the health of a city,

    represent a major health risk to our citi-

    zens, and also portray Cape Town in a nega-

    tive way to tourists and residents alike. He

    adds that previous municipal legislation

    wasnothittinghard enoughat thebig facto-

    ries responsible for much of the noxious,

    contaminating emissions that defile our

    air, and that the existing air pollution cont-

    rol bylaw of council was amended because

    it is out of date and insufficiently stringent.

    In addition, the city has expanded its ve-

    hicle emission testing programme, targe-

    ting not only big fleet owners, but also loo-

    king at city-owned vehicles such as refuse

    removal trucks.

    It is the responsibility of every person

    to protect existing trees and encourage the

    planting of new ones to stem the negative

    consequences of carbon emissions, says

    Vos.

    He also points out that judging by the

    available facts on global warming, human

    beings have a poor track record in caring

    and managing our environment.

    It is a known fact that trees are essential

    in the production of oxygen and the reducti-

    on of hot house gases. The City of Cape

    Town therefore welcomes the contribution

    by every resident who helps to plant trees,

    not only duringArbourMonthheld annual-

    ly in September, but throughout the year.

    Pollution danger to ecosystems

    Vivacious visit: Bollywood actresses Kired Bhaddal, Archana Vijaya and Barbara Mori

    visited Eric Miles Cheshire Home in Milnerton on Friday and plan to donate some much

    needed funds to the home. The three, along with a 20man strong film crew are in South

    Africa to shoot a travel show. Among the activities included skydiving and going up Table

    Mountain, but they felt their visit to South Africa must include some charity work as well.

    They also mingled a bit with the homes residents, who were obviously in awe of their

    beauty. PHOTO: ANDR BAKKES

    Approximately 100 Joe Slovo residents in-

    vadedanopen fieldbelonging toOldMutual

    on Thursday evening with the intention of

    claiming the land for themselves.

    Milnerton police acted quickly and

    nipped the invasion in the bud.

    Spokesperson, W/O Daphne Dell, con-

    firms that a case of trespassing was opened

    by Old Mutual, but to date no arrests have

    been made.

    The trespassers apparently marched to

    the land in the early morning hours, de-

    stroyed a part of the surrounding fence and

    started demarcating the territory.

    Dell says the idea was that they would

    start building their shacks as soon as they

    had figured out who would live where.

    If we didnt act quickly it could have

    been awful. Our members came across the

    people while they were hammering stakes

    into the land, she says.

    Ward councillor JoyMcCarthy adds a dif-

    ferent slant to the affairswhen she says that

    the ringleaders will be prosecuted in ac-

    cordance with an interdict which has re-

    cently been made against them by the City

    of Cape Town.

    Tygerburger reported on this last week

    (Housing queue jumped).

    Says McCarthy: The ringleaders incited

    others to invade the land during a meeting.

    People must understand that housing does

    not fall under local government, but nation-

    al. She also adds that these invaders are

    not only working against the DA, but also

    the Joe Slovo Park community.

    STADSBESTUURDER

    ANDR BAKKES

    The song of the secretive bird, the Baillons

    crake, might at first seem as odd as people

    flying all the way from Johannesburg to

    steal a glimpse of this rare bird, ticking it

    off on their list and then flying back again.

    This oddity by birdwatchers is, however,

    absolutely justified when it is driven by pas-

    sion.

    Their need to see that bird, even if it is for

    just 40 seconds, is worth more than their

    time and money.

    On 19 January a Baillons crake was spot-

    ted at Intaka Island in Century City.

    The news hit Twitter and Facebook, went

    viral, and soon hundreds of infatuated bird-

    lovers descended on to the bird sanctuary.

    The gates opened an hour-and-a-half earli-

    er every morning and repeated sightings of

    the bird enticed even more to flock to

    ground zero.

    Alan Liebenberg of Century Citys Envi-

    ronmental Office elaborates: It created a

    stir among tweeters and photographers who

    have been descending in their droves in the

    hope of catching a glimpse of this normally

    very elusive bird. We have one previous

    record of it being spotted at Intaka back in

    the late 1990s, but it disappeared on the same

    day it was seen.

    Liebenberg confirms that people came all

    the way from Johannesburg to witness the

    special bird.

    He adds that since the best chance one has

    to see it is early in themorning, they opened

    the gates at 06:00 instead of 07:30.

    It is a very small and solitary creature

    and indeed very rare and is usually found

    near the coastline or in marshy areas. Peo-

    ple will sit for three hours just to see it for

    half a minute!

    Liebenberg says he isnt an avid birder,

    but admits that he does have an interest in

    the hobby.

    Three years ago fewer than 10 000 people

    went to the sanctuary but last year this fig-

    ure rose to 20 000.

    According to him it is a fantastic place

    to go and take photos and enjoy the avian

    wildlife.

    When asked what the Baillons crake

    sounds like he said it is very difficult to ex-

    plain it.

    So, I will take a pop at it. It sounds some-

    thing like...

    A frog saying goodbye to theworld (majes-

    tically, mind you) while it is slowly being

    squeezed in a vice.

    Crake causes birder

    quake at Intaka

    An elusive Baillons Crake.

    Full steam ahead: The Elkanah House Senior Primary teaching staff has adopted an All

    Aboard theme for 2013. To celebrate the launch of the theme, they travelled on a steam

    train from Cape Town to Simons Town on Sunday 13 January. Here they are, after enjoying

    a lunch they then journeyed back to Cape Town on the same train all eager to make

    2013 the best year yet at the Senior Primary School.

    A vegetation fire which broke out in the

    Morningstar area in Melkbosstrand at 15:25

    on Monday has been brought under control.

    The cause of such fires are usually un-

    known, Theo Layne, from the Fire and Res-

    cue service said yesterday morning.

    The vegetation fire was however dealt

    with and the necessary precautionarymeas-

    ures were being taken.

    Although vegetation fires are difficult to

    control, no dangers or fatalities have been

    reported and rescue teams are dealing with

    it. Laynes said. He said the weather and

    wind conditions are contributing factors.

    The incessant barking of a neighbours dog

    probably rates rightup thereon themajority

    of peoples list of top 10 irritations.

    Something was however different from

    the barking Taubelle Gersh heard on the

    morning of 21 December from her house in

    Milnerton.

    The owner of four dogs herself, Taubelles

    sympathetic ear picked up something else in

    the barking that others would shrug off as

    the acting out of a frustrated pooch.

    I was playing with my four dogs in my

    garden when I heard this incessant barking

    of a dog in the neighbourhood. It wasnt a

    normal bark, it sounded as if the dog was in

    danger, Taubelle said.

    As the barking continued for another

    hour, a worried Taubelle decided to investi-

    gate.

    As it happened the house which the noisy

    dog called homewas in Redlands Road at the

    back of Taubelles house in Sheldon Road.

    I knocked but no one was home. Being

    vigilant I didnt want to investigate on my

    own. If it was a burglary in progress I might

    put myself in danger, she explained.

    She phoned theMilnertonNeighbourhood

    Watch and shortly one of their members

    joined her at the house.

    He looked around and then called me

    over to come have a look. As I looked

    through an open window I saw a dog stand-

    ing on a table with the curtain entangled

    around its neck. I told the man to not scare

    the dog, fearing that it might jump off the

    table and strangle itself. The barking came

    from another dog on the property some-

    where which I could not see.

    Being a passionate dog lover, Taubelle

    gently approached the distressed dog.

    Sowithmy angelic voice I coaxed the dog

    closer, she joked.

    I managed to grab hold of it and with my

    other hand I was able to untangled the cur-

    tain from around its neck. What amazed me

    was that the other dog was barking to alert

    people to the situation, she said.

    Taubelle asked the NeighbourhoodWatch

    member if he knew who lived there. When

    she got thename she lookedup the telephone

    number and gave the owner, Bev Hoffman,

    a ring.

    I was very tearful and emotional, Angel

    is my daughters dog. She studies at Stellen-

    bosch and was coming home that weekend,

    imagine if she got here and something had

    happened to Angel, said a very grateful

    Bev.

    The 12-year-old Angel and eight-year-old

    Kim, the heroine in this case, were rescue

    dogs that Bev got from the Adopt-A-Pet or-

    ganisation.

    I am just so grateful that Taubelle lis-

    tened to her inner voice.

    The social outreach programme a local ani-

    mal charity has launched in informal settle-

    ments, has led to a complete turn in how the

    residents view their animals.

    The pro-life animal charity in Milnerton

    Adopt-a-Pet has been working in Sweet

    Home Farm, Philippi since July 2011.

    We started tending to the animals there,

    after there were rumours of a pack of dogs

    dragging a child out of a shack and mauling

    her. The community then turned on the

    stray dogs and were intent on killing them,

    says Cicely Blumberg of Adopt-a-Pet.

    It was while visiting the settlement at

    around 06:00 one morning in the middle of

    winter that they met one Edward.

    He was in a terrible situation.

    He was living in a shack no bigger than

    a toilet and he was very sick. We told him

    that we will build him a wendy house before

    Mandelas birthday.

    With the help of some volunteers and do-

    nations, Cicely andher team thenmade good

    on their promise.

    Seeing what they did for Edward, some of

    the mothers approached them and asked

    whether they are from the government.

    We told them we are only there to help

    the animals, but theywanted us to help them

    with their children.

    I didnt know what to say, and off the top

    ofmyhead I suggested getting them involved

    in sport.

    I had a notebook with me and said any

    children interested in playing soccer or net-

    ball should sign up.

    It is through this initiative that they met

    the 14-year-old Ebenathi and a friend.

    We saw a scared looking dog which we

    had trouble catching.

    These two boys went down on their

    haunches in the mud and called the dog to

    them, and it started leopard crawling its way

    to them.

    This would prove to be a turning point in

    the lives of Ebenathi and the lives of the dis-

    regarded animals in the settlement.

    Ebenathi still has the dog they rescued

    that day.

    He is now awatcher for all animals in dis-

    tress in Sweet Home Farm. If he comes

    across ananimal that is in trouble, hephones

    us, an excited Cicely says.

    The weekend before last he phoned us

    about a little kitten he found in a dustbin.

    We went out and rescued him, Cicely says.

    However, another emergency call from the

    sympathetic Ebenathi regarding a dog and

    its puppies that appeared to have been driv-

    en over by a car, did not have such a happy

    ending.

    The dogs appeared to have been dead for

    quite a while when we got there, she says.

    Cicely is grateful for the way children like

    Ebenathi have been given an understanding

    of life.

    The place where they live is so difficult.

    There is nothing.

    Previously they would torture and kill

    the animals andnow they are helping to save

    their lives, she says.

    The Safety Ambassadors social upliftment

    programme they run in areas like Philippi

    is aimed at showing the people who live

    there, a different way of life.

    We take the children to placeswhere they

    havent been before. Recently I took

    Ebenathi and his mother to the Waterfront

    and we took them on a boat ride around the

    harbour.

    If you teach a young child to respect life

    they will convey that thinking to the next

    generation. It also serves as a crime preven-

    tion programme and seems to be working,

    she adds.

    V Volunteers who would like to get involved with

    AdoptaPet or who would like to donate towards

    their cause can contact Cicely Blumberg on

    021 465 4560 or visit www.adoptapet.org.za.

    Changingmindsets to pets

    animals like these that children in impoverished

    upliftment programme they run.

    Cease fire and

    start listening

    to real needs

    Cease fire! one wants to scream. Can

    everyone just put their guns, sticks,

    stones, posters, and yes, pens down, shut

    up and listen to each other? Can we stop

    destroying our surroundings and saddest

    of all, each other?

    Everywhere everyone is yelling for

    this, demanding that. Youll swear every

    single soul is being denied even the most

    basic of rights. Who doesnt want more

    money, a better house, better services,

    better education and more opportunities?

    This need is insatiable the more you

    have, the more you want especially

    political power.

    In a democracy nobody gets what they

    want. Everything is a compromise. We

    strive towards being sort-of satisfied. To

    get to this point, we should listen. Not

    just shut up to reload the word gun, but

    put you in the other partys shoes the

    real party understand their concerns

    and their real needs, and stop focusing

    on your own screwed up urge to get to

    the top.

    What is prevalent everywhere, is people

    trying to wipe each other out, whether by

    weapons or words. Nobody is listening.

    Least of all is anyone listening to the real

    victims of all these egoistic wars and

    struggles for power. Who are listening to

    honest people just trying to get on with

    their lives, doing their jobs, raising their

    children? They are the people who have

    to live with this dodge the bullets,

    bearing the brunt of others greed.

    Please, just hold your fire.

    I refer to the letter (Cyclists

    should start thinking about the

    motorists on roads, TygerBur-

    ger, 23 January).

    I am a cyclist and from your

    letter I assume that you are

    not and never was one.

    The death of Burry Stander

    had me questioning myself if I

    should continue to cycle or

    rather take up another sport

    which I rather can do on a

    field or indoors.

    I cycle almost everyday and

    when I get home, I thank the

    Lord that I got back safely. I

    agree with you that we as

    cyclist have to look after our

    own safety, but surely you as a

    motorist also have a responsi-

    bility to look out for me.

    Numerous times we have near

    misses of trucks and cars that

    pass us within the safe 1.5

    meter zone.

    Some cars will pass you just

    to turn right in front of you so

    that you have to slam on the

    brakes.

    You say that cyclist ride

    outside the yellow line and

    that you have to sit behind

    them. We have just been to

    Ireland in December, there the

    cars do sit behind the cyclists,

    where there is no yellow line,

    and wait for a gap to pass

    them safely without putting

    anybodys lives in danger. And

    that is the norm, because they

    respect each others right to be

    on the road.

    You mention that you have

    to drive into the oncoming

    traffic, but if you regard a

    cyclist as just another road

    user, you will wait until it is

    safe to pass like you will do

    with another motor vehicle.

    You also mention that

    Government should make it a

    law that all cyclist must be

    registered and display a

    registration number. A big

    number of Mountain bikers in

    the Western Cape already

    belong to various clubs, like

    the Tygerberg Mountainbike

    Club (TBMC) and everybody

    displays their own specific

    This cycling issues

    is a twoway street

    In response to the letter

    (Cyclists should start thinking

    about the motorists on roads,

    TygerBurger, 23 January).

    I am both a cyclist and

    motorist and have travelled the

    Bottelary Road many times on

    both of these forms of trans-

    port.

    I do agree that there are

    large groups of cyclists that use

    this very popular cycling route

    from time to time, and also

    agree that some are misbehav-

    ing by riding three or four

    abreast. The various Western

    Cape cycling clubs and regional

    bodies are working hard to

    address these problems.

    Cyclists, like all other

    vehicles, are not supposed to

    ride inside the yellow lines,

    they do so out of courtesy to

    faster vehicles and for self

    preservation to some extent.

    There needs to be a serious

    paradigm shift in the way all

    road users in SA think

    motorists, cyclists, taxis, the

    whole lot, towards a mentality

    of live and let live.

    The Argus Cycle Tour is

    coming up soon and the roads

    are going to be flooded with

    cyclists, so perhaps, if only for

    two months, motorists can

    accept them with some grace

    then perhaps some lives can be

    saved and stress levels lowered

    I am deeply disappointed that

    the driver who knocked and

    scratched my car just drove off.

    I parked behind Checkers

    supermarket on Sunday 13

    January. I was in the store for

    20 minutes and when I came

    out my silver Polo was badly

    scratched by someone that did

    not have the decency to wait

    for me to come out the store or

    leave his/her phone number...

    come forward like a decent

    person and admit that you

    damaged my vehicle and not a

    coward that runs away.

    MyPolo scratcher is

    just another coward

    In reply to Mr De Kocks letter

    (Cyclists should start thinking

    about the motorists on roads,

    TygerBurger, 23 January).

    Your statement that cyclists

    should take responsibility for

    their own safety is correct, but

    I have a few concerns.

    I am a cyclist myself and use

    the Bottelary Road regularly. I

    always ride as far left on the

    shoulder of the road as possi-

    ble. At stop streets and robots I

    go to the front, but always

    ensure that I stay out of the

    way of cars not to delay or

    obstruct them when they pull

    away. Even though I am a very

    considerate cyclist, I have an

    unpleasant incident every

    single time I go riding and not

    once has it been my fault.

    What your article does not

    mention is the motorists total

    disregard of road rules, the

    impatience, intolerance and

    general lawlessness on our

    roads the cause of death and

    serious accidents on our roads.

    if you have any trouble with

    any cyclist and you can get

    that number, the club will be

    more than happy to address

    the issue. I actually would like

    to see that it is compulsory for

    cyclists to pay a license fee

    every year, but then I am

    allowed to ride where any car

    is riding be that in the middle

    of the lane or next to the white

    regard us with more respect.

    Trap ver vir Downsindroom

    Hier is die fietsryers wat binnekort van Bellville tot in Mosselbaai gaan ry om geld in te samel vir

    die Downsindroomvereniging van die WesKaap.

    JANA BEKKER

    Vyfmans van die noordelike voorstede gaan

    binnekort hul padfietse trap...en trap...en

    trap...480 km ver!

    Dt doen hulle in n poging om R30 000 vir

    die Downsindroom-vereniging van die Wes-

    Kaap (DSVWK) in te samel.

    Harold Wentzel en Sarel Strydom van

    Monte Vista, Lukas Kruger van Edgemead,

    Patrick Darlow van Brackenfell en Gert van

    Wyk van Melkbos almal van die departe-

    ment van korrektiewe dienste in Goodwood

    se fietsryklub (Mountain View) pak van 25

    Februarie tot 1 Maart die lang rit tussen

    Bellville en Mosselbaai aan.

    Di rit is van uiterse belang vir die vereni-

    ging, wat geldelik swaarkry.

    Die vereniging bevind hom in geldelike

    nood n sy grootste donateur hulle vanjaar

    nie ondersteun het nie. Buiten vir uiters

    noodsaaklike geldinsameling, sal die toer

    ook sterk fokus op die bewusmaking van

    Downsindroom.

    Tineke Boshoff (skakelpersoon: DSVWK)

    s die DSVWK moes noodgedwonge einde

    November personeellede se dienste bein-

    dig.

    Noodsaaklike dienste gaan voort danksy

    die bereidwilligheid van vrywilligers om

    sonder vergoeding te werk, s sy.

    Sy s di sindroom is die mees algemene

    genetiese oorsaak van verstandelike ge-

    stremdheid. Een uit elke 800 babas in Suid-

    Afrika word daarmee gebore. Dit is iets wat

    ons almal raak, s Tineke.

    Sy s die DSVWK is daartoe verbind om

    maniere te vind om die lewensgehalte van

    persone met Downsindroom te verbeter.

    Die vereniging beywer hom vir die bevor-

    dering van dimense se reg tot onafhanklik-

    heid, waardigheid en sekerheid as volwaar-

    dige lede van die gemeenskap.

    Dit behels die bemagtiging en ondersteu-

    ning aan personemet Downsindroom en hul

    gesinne, bewusmaking deur verspreiding

    van inligting, sosiale interaksie-geleenthe-

    de, inklusiewe onderwys en werkskepping.

    Tineke sPPCSementhet reeds n donasie

    van R6 000 gemaak.

    Die toerword vanjaar die 13de keer ten ba-

    te van die DSVWK getrap. Marius Franken

    van Parow-Noord ry per voertuig saam met

    die fietsryers envier verteenwoordigers van

    die DSVWK, waarvan twee met Downsin-

    droom, gaanook saam.Gert is fisiekgestrem

    en ry met n aangepaste fiets.

    Geldword langs die pad ingesamelmet be-

    hulp van skole en veral nie-winsgewende or-

    ganisasies, soos die Lions.

    Beulah Matthee, vrywillige werker van

    die DSVWK, wat reeds die afgelope vier jaar

    die relings vir die fietstoer behartig, s

    voor die groep vertrekword soveelmoontlik

    skole gekontak vir ondersteuning.

    Skole langs die pad hou muntleggings en

    op van die dorpe loop vroue vooraf met kol-

    lektelyste deur die dorp, s sy.

    Fietsryers sal op die toer aandoen by Gor-

    donsbaai,RiviersonderendenHeidelberg en

    slaapoor inCaledon, Swellendam,Riversdal

    en Mosselbaai.

    Enigeen wat n bydrae wil maak tot die

    geldinsamelingprojek, word versoek om Ti-

    neke of Beulah in kantoorure by 021 919 8533

    of Tineke by 084 258 6436 te bel.
