Shock and disbelief follows news of the sudden and untimely death of a “larger than life” Mohamed
A great lossBy Andries van Zyl

- bladsy 2
It is not often that the passing away of a person results in such an immense sense of loss, as is experienced by all in the Soutpansberg with the tragic news of the sudden and untimely death of Mr Mohamed Rasool (58) the past week.
Mohamed died early Thursday morning, 12 February, in the Zoutpansberg Private Hospital, fol-lowing a cycling accident not far from his home in Eltivillas. Nobody can explain what had happened, as he was alone when tragedy struck. He was found in the road with a serious head injury, after he had apparently fallen off his bicycle. Mohamed loved cycling and regularly went for an early morning ride before going to work.
Although small in stature, Mohamed was a larger-than-life person, and for many it feels as if a little bit of the Soutpansberg died with him on that fateful Thursday. Immediately after the news of his death, messages of condolence began to stream in on the Zoutpansberger’s Facebook page. “Mo-hamed will be missed by many!

Cosmic Connection is a newly established therapy facility here in Louis Trichardt, where the body, mind and soul can be treated as a whole.
Managed by owner Uschi Rauch, Cosmic Connection approaches health in a holistic way by offering a variety of services to address envi-ronmental or emotional stress that steals away our life vitality. This includes physiological regulation therapy with the help of BEMER treatments, living tree orchid essences, and Cefaly migraine treatment.
BEMER therapy, or Bio Electric Magnetic Energy Regulation, is applied by means of a mat upon which one lies while a pulsed mag-netic field envelops the body. This therapy restores energy to all the body’s cells, which will strengthen the immune system by increas-ing the reaction capability of white blood cells, and accelerated healing of wounds and injuries by ensuring optimal microcirculation of the cells, thereby increasing their effectiveness. The BEMER mat is licensed by the Department of Health, and comes highly recommended worldwide.
Where BEMER takes care of the body, Cefaly treatments take care of stress on the mind. This is a device which is positioned on the forehead that transmits precise impulses on the trigeminal nerve in order to reduce pain and prevent mi-graine attacks. Cefaly treatments are totally safe and can also prevent sinus and alleviate stress.
Both treatments are non-invasive and med-ically safe, and Uschi will also complete a mini-consultation with each new client for extra peace of mind and to ensure that clients receive the maximum benefi t from each treatment ses-sion. Living tree orchid, which is imported from Scotland, makes use of a variety of essences to create powerful shifts in our energy fi elds that directly infl uence moods and often have an immediate calming effect. The treatment, says Uschi, is very good for people who have to deal with trauma in their lives.
The Cosmic Connection is situated at C’Jays at 124 Krogh Street, and Uschi can be contacted for appointments and available vouchers for free and discounted treatments at 083 601 8384.

Polisieman deel van vermeende roofbende Hierdie week het letterlik ‘n blou Maandag ge-had op Louis Trichardt, met die manne in blou wat een van hul eie moes arresteer.
Lede van die Makhado Polisie het vyf verdagtes vasgetrek wat daarvan verdink word dat hulle die Wylliespoortwinkel tussen Louis Trichardt en Mu-sina beroof het. Dit sou by nadere ondersoek aan die lig kom dat een van die verdagtes ‘n lid is van die polisie se Beskerming- en Sekuriteitseenheid in Pretoria.
Volgens provinsiale polisiewoordvoerder lt.kol. Ronel Otto is die mans opgemerk in die wit Toyota Avanza bussie waarin hulle gery het, en is afgetrek op die N1 oorkant CTM.
Plaaslike polisie, lede van die Soutpansberg Dorpswag en die streek se plaaswagte het die heelaand na die voertuig gesoek. Daar is glo nog ‘n tweede voertuig, ‘n rooi Izuzu bakkie, soek.
Versteek binne-in die bussie het die polisie op twee 9 mm-pistole afgekom: een wat hulle glo van die Wylliespoortwinkel se sekuriteitswag afgevat het Sondagaand, en nog een waarvan die reeksno-mmer afgevyl is. Daar is ook ‘n onbekende bedrag
kontant gekry en 10 selfone.Al vyf die mans het Woensdag vlugtig in die
Louis Trichardt Streekhof verskyn.Ntakadzeni Emmaneul Takalani (28), Thizwikoni
Phungo (32), Lutendo Nemuramba (32), Thomas Nndwamoto Thovhokale (56) en Shumani Ludere (32) staar klagtes van roof met verswarende om-standighede en die onwettige besit van ‘n vuurwap-en en ammunisie in die gesig.
Die polisielid, Takalani, staan op ‘n verdere klag tereg van die besit van ‘n vuurwapen met die opset om ‘n misdryf te pleeg. Daar word ondersoek ingestel om vas te stel of hy betrokke was by die roof, en of hy sy dienspistool gebruik het.
Plaaslike polisiewoordvoerder konst. Irene Radzilane het bevestig dat die moontlikheid ondersoek word dat die mans dalk betrokke kon gewees het op die moord van mnr. Bhavesh Desai (43), die eienaar van die Wylliespoortwinkel, in Oktober verlede jaar.
Al vyf sal in polisie aanhouding bly tot 13 Maart, waarna hulle na verwagting ‘n formele borgaansoek sal bring.

Crime
Bank robbers gun down security guardAn on-duty security guard was killed during a bank robbery last Thursday in Musina.
The 28-year-old guard was shot twice when three heavily armed robbers opened fire on him and his colleague while they had to retrieve money from the Standard Bank branch.
According to provincial police spokesperson Col Ronel Otto, the two guards were just leaving
the bank with the money trunks, which they were about to load into a waiting security vehicle.
Otto said the robbers waited outside the bank in a getaway vehicle and it is believed that the robbers thought that the guards were being watched and therefore starting shooting.
The second guard was wound-ed in his leg.
Police pursued the suspects,
who fled the scene with the cash trunks, in the direction of Tshipise. Otto said several shots were fi red during the wild chase. The robbers, however, managed to elude arrest after they aban-doned their vehicle next to the road and fled on foot through the bushes.
At the time of our going to press, no arrests had been made yet.
The case of a former senior regional magistrate from Ma-kha do (Louis Trichardt), who is accused of accepting a bribe to infl uence a court case, was postponed for the umpteenth time.
Ronnie Rambau appeared in the Messina Magistrate’s Court on Monday, 2 February, together with his co-accused, ex-prosecutor Estene Willemse and attorney Tivoneleni Ed-mond Lubisi. The trio made the headlines three years ago when Rambau was arrested during a police trap. They were charged with corruption for allegedly infl uencing several court cases by means of predetermining the outcome and accepting money for these.
The case against Rambau, Willemse and Lubisi took an un-expected turn during a previous court appearance when Rambau asked the presiding magistrate to withdraw from the case. Ram-bau claimed that the magistrate had befriended some of the state witnesses and that this could have a negative infl uence on the outcome of his trial.
When this application was dismissed, Rambau turned to both the High Court and Su-preme Court of Appeals, who also dismissed his application to have the magistrate withdrawn from the case.
At the beginning of the year, Rambau approached the Con-stitutional Court with the same application. This will mean that
his criminal case will be put on hold until a decision is made by the court. At this stage, it is not known when the Constitutional Court will hear Rambau’s appli-cation and give a ruling.
In the meantime, the newspa-per was able to confirm last week that Rambau is no longer a magistrate. His previous em-ployer, the Magistrate’s Com-mission, confi rmed that Rambau resigned on 6 October 2014. “Because Mr Rambau does not hold the office of magistrate anymore, it follows that the commission will not pursue their disciplinary hearing against him, and have closed their fi le in the matter,” said the commissions secretary, Mr Dawie Schoeman, in an email.

(Contd from P1)Cyclists from all races and religions rode from
Mount Fuji and gathered in front of Cycle Centre. From there they rode to Mohamed’s home, where they were met by the Rasool family. It was an over-whelming emotional experience which words can-not describe. “One cyclist asked me w h a t s i z e shoe I
wear. I thought it to be an odd question at a time like this. I replied ‘A size 9’. The man then said ‘Your dad wore a size 25. I hope you will be able to fill his shoes,” said Bobby.
In July 2012, the Soutpansberg also mourned the death of Hamid Rasool, Mohamed’s brother. They were like twins. “My dad struggled with the loss of not only his brother, but a life-long friend,” said Bobby. He reached for the counter and opened up his dad’s diary. On the back page is the article that appeared in the newspaper about Hamid’s death. “Every time things got too much, he used to open the diary and read through the article again. Now, they are together again,” said Bobby.
Cycle Centre opened its doors in 1955 with Mohamed, at age 17, joning the family business in 1974. Over the years, this business became
synonymous with fishing and cycling in the Soutpansberg, and the Rasools
became like family to many. Both Mohamed and Hamid radiated
compassion, always enquiring about everybody and their family’s well-being. They
always made time to have a chat, listen and share their
knowledge. Mohamed always used to say: “In life, you make a living of what you earn, but you make a life of what you give.”A visit to Cycle Centre will never be the same again. Mohamed was buried on the same day of his death, accord-ing to Muslim custom. He is survived by his wife, two sons, sister Mehmuda Bellim and daughter-in-law Salma.
On Saturday, cyclists from all races and religions rode from Mount Fuji and gathered in front of Cycle Centre. From there they rode to Mohamed’s home, where they were met by the Rasool family. It was an overwhelming emotional experience which words cannot describe. Left: Cyclist Hetta Lombard consoles Mohamed’s sister, Mehmuda Bellim.

Dominee pleit “onnosel”
oor vuurwapenkennisDie leraar van Louis Trichardt wat teregstaan op ‘n klag van bedrog en oortreding van die Vuurwapenwet sê hy verstaan nie die klagtes wat teen hom gebring is nie.
Dr. Philip Arnoldus Venter (58) het “onnosel” gepleit toe hy deur die Staat kruisondervra is. Hy het verlede week weer in die Louis Trichardt Dis-trikshof verskyn.
Venter word daarvan verdink dat hy in April 2006, onder valse voorwendsels, besit geneem het van drie van mev. Cecile Steyn se vuurwapens. Hy sou haar glo onder die indruk gebring het dat hy ‘n geregistreerde wapenhandelaar was. Al drie wapens het intussen vermis geraak, nadat Venter dit glo vir ‘n vriend gegee het om te deaktiveer. Ná die vriend se dood in 2009, het hy steeds in 2010 in twee briewe aan Steyn erken dat die wapens in sy besit was, met die nodige bergingspermitte (539-vorms).
Voordat Venter verlede week in die getuiebank geklim het, het sy advokaat, mnr. Neil Duvenhage, ‘n aansoek gebring om lt.kol. Bez Bezuidenhout te herroep vir verdere kruisondervraging.
Die aansoek was geskoei op ‘n verklaring van ‘n vriend en sakekennis van Venter, mnr. Petrus Phillipus Visser (alombekend as Peet). Visser het glo oor inligting beskik wat Venter se saak sou kon help. Volgens Visser het hy in November verlede jaar van die hofverrigtinge in die koerant gelees en besef dat lt.kol. Bezuidenhout, wat as deskundige vir die Staat getuig het, gelieg het as hy gesê het dat alles volgens prosedure gedoen is in die polisie se plaaslike wapenlisensiekantoor.
Duvenhage het aangevoer dat Visser se getuienis “essensieel” tot die saak is, omdat dit sal bewys dat lt.kol. Bezuidenhout se getuienis nie in alle opsigte korrek was nie.
In die aansoek het Duvenhage weer die hof probeer oortuig dat die Makhado polisie se wapen-lisensiekantoor in totale wanorde funksioneer. Hiervoor het Visser verskeie bergingspermitte (539-vorms) as bewys in sy besit, wat Bezuid-enhout glo uitgereik het aan hom sonder om dit behoor lik te voltooi. “Visser het eers nie gedink hierdie dokumentasie is belangrik nie, maar dit kan bewys dat hy [Bezuidenhout] nie aan die reëls en regulasies voldoen het nie. So, hierdie bewering van die Staat dan, dat dit alles so mooi en ordentlik gedoen is, kan dus nie aanvaar word nie ... en Bezuidenhout moet dus kom verduidelik,” het Duvenhage gesê.
Die hof het die aansoek afgekeur en die Staat gelyk gegee dat die nuwe getuienis van Visser nie betrekking het op die wapens in Venter se saak nie. Verder het die Staat ook gesê dat daar ‘n ernstige vraagteken oor die aansoek hang, en dat dit wil voorkom asof dit ‘n persoonlike aanval op Bezuidenhout is.
Omdat die Staat reeds hul saak teen Venter verlede jaar gesluit het, het Duvenhage die verded-iging se saak geopen met Venter se getuienis.
Venter se verweer was dat hy Steyn ‘n guns gedoen het om die wapens by haar oor te neem en te laat deaktiveer. Sy het, volgens hom, die wapens verniet weggegee, en dit sou hom baie geld kos om dit te laat doen deur ‘n wapensmid. Daarom het hy vir wyle mnr. Tewie Wessels, wat ‘n goeie vriend van hom was, gevra om van sy kontakte gebruik te maak en dalk die wapens kosteloos
gedeaktiveer te kry.Venter het getuig dat hy die wapens en hul ber-
gingspermitte net ‘n paar dae in sy besit gehad het, voordat hy dit aan Wessels oorhandig het. Wessels het glo die wapens by Venter se huis afgehaal, waarvoor hy ook permitte laat uitreik het om dit wettig in sy besit te hê. Visser, het Venter gesê, sal hiervan kan getuig, want hy was die dag by gewees.
Hierna, het Venter getuig, het hy nooit weer die wapens gesien nie en ook aangeneem dat Wessels dit vir ‘n smid gegee het. Omdat hy geweet het die deaktivering sou lank vat en sy eie bergingspermitte intussen verval het, het hy die vorms weggegooi.
Wat die briewe aan Steyn betref, het Venter getu-ig dit moet saam gelees word, en dat hy bedoel het hy het besitreg op die wapens, al was dit nie fisies in sy besit. Die briewe se swak woordkeuse, sê hy, was omdat hy gedurende die tyd onder geweldige druk was om ‘n proefskrif klaar te skryf en later deur die NG Kerk se Ring verhoor is.
“... so, ek weet ek het daardie brief geskrywe, ek ontken dit nie, maar ek kon nie onthou wat ek daarbinne geskryf het nie,” het Venter getuig.
Venter het onder kruisondervraging van die Staat getuig dat dit vir hom nuus was dat hy nie ‘n geregistreerde wapenhandelaar was nie, en dat sy aansoek net halfpad voltooi was. Hy het getuig dat hy nooit in 2006 vir Steyn onder dié indruk gebring het, of haar vertel het dat hy van plan was om Turner’s, ‘n plaaslike wapenhandelaar, te koop nie. Hierdie aanbod het eers in 2008 na hom gekom.
Verder het Venter vir die Staat gesê dat hy nie uitvoerige kennis van die vuurwapenwet gehad het nie, ongeag dat hy verskeie sertifikate aan die hof getoon het wat gewys het dat hy daaroor eksamens afgelê het... “Ek pleit dan onnosel,” het hy aan die aanklaer gesê toe hy uitgevra is oor sy bewerings dat die polisie se wapenkantoor chaoties was en by verskeie kere aan hom half-voltooide 539-permitte uitgereik het. Nadat Venter klaar getuig het, is sy saak uitgestel tot 26 Februarie.

School News
The Ridgeway Independent School outside Lou-is Trichardt received good news this past week regarding their group of Grade 6s who took the October 2014 Cambridge exams in science and mathematics.
“We are very proud of their results,” said the school.
Students who wrote the exam were rated on a scale from zero to six, with six being the highest mark a student could obtain. Last year’s Grade 6s wrote the exams six months earlier than the previous group and produced a tremendous result.
In both subjects, none of the students scored lower than three. In mathematics, the class average was 5.2, with nine students scoring six. In science, the class average was 4.8, and six students obtained the highest mark.
The two students who received the highest mark in science and maths, respectively, were Justin Hugo and Ayesha Chhaya.

Huldeblyk
“Die enigste ding in die wêreld wat nooit kan sterf nie, is mooi herinneringe, en daar is soveel daarvan...” sê gesinslede van Joao Lombard, lid van ‘n bekende Soutpansbergse pioniersfamilie en geliefde eienaar van die gewilde, alombek-ende Hengelparadys by die Albasinidam.
Lombard is voorverlede Donderdag in die hospi-taal opgeneem en is Sondag, 8 Februarie, oorlede. Hy was 79 jaar oud. ‘n Roudiens is Maandag, 16 Februarie, vir Lombard gehou vanuit die AP Kerk op Louis Trichardt.
In ‘n huldeblyk sê sy gesin: “Pa was ‘n skatryk man in die dinge op aarde wat hemelse waarde het: Liefde, omgee en medemenslikheid – nooit, ooit kwaad gepraat nie.
“Pa was ‘n mens wat met soveel positiwiteit elke dag aangepak het – so lief vir die lewe – so trots op elke stukkie handewerk. Die Hengelparadys, omring deur die Soutpansberge, is armer, want ‘n groot boom het geval.
“As ‘n pa het hy ons deur sy lewe laat sien dat God die Vader, die Seun, en Heilige Gees die Here van die hede, verlede en toekoms is.”
“Die mooi herinneringe sal nooit sterf nie”
Oom Joao was die tweede oudste van die vier seuns van J.J. Dons Lombard en Christina Helena (neé Albasini) op die plaas Beja. Hul sussie Esma (15 jaar jonger as Joao) sê as kleuter was dit moeil-ik om die vier broers se name te onthou, totdat haar ma vir haar gesê het om net ‘n “Ja” vooraan te sit. Toe word dit Ja-Pierre, Ja-oa, Ja-pok en Ja-christo.
Sy vertel ná die geboorte van Joao op 30 Au-gustus 1935 het die bekende oom Ben Lavin, wat sonder kinders was, opgedaag om vir die tweede seun met harde kontant ‘n aanbod te maak : “A thousand pounds!” om hom as kind op te eis.
“Joao was soos sy karre, ‘n smooth operator, never missed a beat en as Casanova met ‘n weglê snor het hy teruggekeer van Johannesburg se blink liggies om sy pa op die plaas te kom help en sy sussie te kom grootmaak.
“Hy was ‘n ten volle gekwalifiseerde elektrome-ganiese ingenieur, ‘n 100 m atleet en kranige rug-byspeler as jong student. Vir sy sussie, ‘Poppelons’, het hy geleer: Spring altyd eerste met die regtervoet weg, dan is jy alreeds voor. Hy was ‘n vinnige jongman wat met sy Harley Davidson telkemale op Kyalami resies gejaag het.
“Met sy sjarme het hy toe die hart van ‘n Fos-chini-model, Anthea, gewen en die knoop deurge-haak,” vertel Esma.
Sy kleinkinders onthou die inspirasie wat hulle geput het uit hul oupa se ontembare lus om saam te groei met moderne tegnologie. “’n Perfekte rolmodel van hoe ‘n man in hierdie moderne lewe moet optree. Oupa was altyd net ‘n foonoproep weg en altyd gereed om kennis oor te dra. Oupa was altyd gereed om jou op te beur met ‘n grappie of twee. Ons sal ons lang gesprekke mis in die bakkie en op die stoep, wanneer die son ondergaan en sy vertellings van die manewales op die meule, myne en Yskor.”
Een van sy gewilde sêgoed was: “Die boer se beste kunsmis op sy landerye, is sy voetspore...”

Environmental News
The Ridgeway Independent School outside Louis Trichardt is fast becoming a recognised environmentally friendly school.
During 2014, they participated in an international programme of the Foundation for Environmental Education. In South Africa, this programme is managed by the Wildlife and Environment Society of South Africa (WESSA), in partnership with the World Wildlife Fund.
The purpose of the programme is to improve the quality of a school’s environment, organize envi-ronmental action days, set up efficient recycling, create awareness about water and energy consump-tion and to educate on major current sustainable development issues.
Ridgeway school received their first programme certificate during a prestigious event hosted in Polokwane on Friday, 13 February.
Eco-school is a programme which aims to co-ordinate education and sustainable development within schools, by means of a four-step programme. Participating schools begin by completing a year-long environmental project at their school, which is audited by WESSA, for which they receive accreditation rewards. The aim, for Ridgeway, is to work their way up from a bronze certificate, to become a school with a green-flag status.
During 2014, Ridgeway assembled an Eco coun-cil to motivate students to participate. The theme was Water Conservation, and students participated at all levels, not only to ensure that water is saved, but also to clean the school grounds.
School becoming more environmentally friendly

The Ridgeway Independent School has big plans to become an environmentally friendly school. Last week they received their first certificate from the WESSA Eco-schools programme. From left to right are Mrs Karien de Villiers (eco-committee), Rizka Aboobaker, Savanna Sparrow, Riya Patel and Mrs Alona Mapfumo (eco-committee).
Wally Schultz, AfriForum se takvoor sitter in Louis Tri - c hardt, het vir ’n klein opskud-ding gesorg waar hy verlede week ‘n spreker by die Alter-natiewe Mynbou-indaba in Kaapstad was.
Schultz is plaaslik bekend vir sy passievolle teenstand van my-nbou-aktiwiteite noord van die Soutpansberg. Hy het vol hoop teruggekeer van die indaba, wat daarop gemik was om mense in te lig en bewus te maak van die enorme impak en chaos wat myn-bou in Suid-Afrika tot gevolg het.
Die Alternatiewe Mynbou-ind-aba is ses jaar gelede begin en val saam met die jaarlikse amptelike Mynbou Indaba wat by die inter-nasionale Convention Centre in Kaapstad gehou word. Tydens die weeklange samekoms, het Schultz kans gehad om self aan protesoptogte deel te neem en selfs internasionale rolspelers van so ver as Kanada in te lig oor wat agter die mynbouskerms aan die gang is.
Hy het spesifiek verwys na plaaslike anti-myn organisasies wat daarin kon slaag om myn-maatskappye, soos CoAL of Af-rica Limited (CoAL), tot dusver
Omgewingsnuus
Schultz sorg vir opskudding by indabain verskeie van hulle aktiwiteite te stuit. Sy groot bekommernis is dat ryk mynhuise nie eerlik is met plaaslike gemeenskappe oor wat die uitwerking van my-nbou kan wees nie, en dat dié gemeenskappe op geen manier voordeel uit mynbou-aktiwiteite sal trek nie. “Om een klein myn hier te bedryf, is 4,2 miljoen liter water per dag nodig. Daar is eenvoudig nie genoeg water
daarvoor nie en soos dit is, sukkel die regering reeds om basiese water aan gemeenskappe te voorsien,” het Schultz gesê. “Ons het ’n alter natiewe plan en dit is om ge meen skappe te bemagtig, sodat hulle volhoubaar voedsel kan produseer en vir hulself ’n bestaan uit toerisme kan maak wat heeltemal onontgin in die land is.” Bron: Alet Rademeyer- AfriForum
Gedurende die Alternatiewe Mynbou-indaba in Kaapstad verlede week het plaaslike AfriForum voorsitter mnr. Wally Schultz hierdie foto geneem van gemeenskappe wat monsters het van water wat besoedel is as gevolg van mynbou-aktiwiteite elders in die land. Die gemeenskappe het mynmaatskappye gevra of hulle dié water sal drink. Foto verskaf.

10 20 February 2015 ZOUTPANSBERGER
Deur Isabel Venter
Maanskyn en rose was dalk op die spyskaart, maar ‘n winkel dief wat op Valentyns-
dag vasgetrek is, moes dié aand agter tralies deurbring.
Die 24-jarige Ephariam Mo-
kwena is boonop, vir sy straf, terug na sy land van herkoms – Zimbab we – gedeporteer.
Mokwena is Sater-dagaand (14de) by die Louis Trichardt Spar in Presidentstraat deur ‘n sekuriteitswag gevang toe hy twee pakkies wors uit die winkel probeer smokkel het. Die wag het gesien hoe Mokwena die pakkies, ter waarde van R24.78, bestel en in ‘n plastiek-sak los by die skryfbe-hoefte-afdeling, naby die kassiere.
Hierna het Mokwena wyn en kerse gaan kry, daarvoor betaal, dit in sy sak gesit en na die kiosk gegaan waar hy vuurhoutjies gekoop het. Dis toe Mokwena die winkel verlaat het dat hy voorgekeer is. Hy is onder arres geplaas toe hy nie koopbewyse vir die wors kon toon nie. Sy verduideliking aan die wag was dat hy pas sy fout agtergekom het, en wou omdraai om vir die wors te betaal.
Mokwena het die naweek in polisie-aan-houding deurgebring en het Maandag, op ‘n klag van winkeldiefstal, in die Louis Trichardt Distrikshof verskyn, waar hy skuldig bevind is. Hy het ook erken dat hy onwettig in Suid-Af-rika is, en daarom is hy nie direkte tronkstraf opgelê nie, maar eerder gedeporteer.
Dief se Valentynsdag werk nie lekker uit nie
Laerskool Messina het op Vrydag, 13 Februarie, Valentynsdag gevier. Die Graad 7-leerlinge het lekkergoed, koekies en blomme verkoop ten bate van hul Graad 7-fonds. Hul het ook ‘n reuseteddiebeer uitgeloot wat geskenk is deur meneer en mevrou Naudé. Die trekking is Vrydag gedoen en die beer is gewen deur Jané Naudé (links). Die Graad 7-onderwysers het al die Graad 7-ouers bedank vir hul ondersteuning. Foto verskaf.
Bo: Lede van Ladies Circle 4 in Louis Trichardt het op Saterdag, 14 Februarie, weer hul gereelde jaarlikse Valentynsbesoek afgelê by Ons Tuiste Ouetehuis. Die jonge dames, Riana Otto (voorsitter), Gerda Nagel, Ciska Jansen van Vuuren, Diane Otto, Laura van Zyl en Cherise Gamble, het die bejaarde inwoners bederf met tee en koek, asook ‘n sakdoekie en sjokolade vir elkeen. Riana het haar dank uitgespreek teenoor almal wat donasies gemaak het vir die dag asook hul tyd opgeoffer het.

Die Weg, die Waarheid en die Lewe
Deuteronium 31:1-13
Daar is ‘n wonderlike belofte in Hebreërs 13:5, waar God belowe
Hy sal Sy kinders nooit verlaat nie. Maak nie saak wat die omstandighede van ons lewens is nie.
Dit was net ‘n belofte wat God se volk nodig gehad het in hul voorbereiding om die beloofde land binne te gaan. Die volk het bemoediging nodig gehad vir die stryd wat voor hulle was, en daardie bemoediging het gekom deur God se belofte om by hulle te wees en vir hulle te veg.
Die Here God het ook belowe dat Hy met elke kind van Hom sal wees. Nie een van Sy kinders sal verlore gaan nie. Daarom kan elke kind van God met vrymoedigheid sê: “Die Here is my helper, ek ken geen vrees nie, wat kan ‘n mens aan my doen?” (Heb. 13:6)
Bly daarom getrou aan Christus in alle omstandighede, onthou jy is nie alleen in moeilike omstandighede nie want God belowe om met Sy kinders te wees elke oomblik van jou lewe.

Bernard het Daisy laat belowe dat sy op Valentynsdag nie naby die plaas sal kom nie. Sy moes terstond gaan inkopies doen op die dorp. Wat Bernard presies beplan, wou hy nie uitlap nie en Daisy moes haar kwota geduld tot die uiterste beproef.

BRIEWE / LETTERS
“Dis nou alles goed en wel om vir my te sê ek moet my uit die voete maak,” dink Daisy
geïrriteerd. “Maar daar is ook net soveel wat mens in die dorp kan doen.”
Sy bel vir Bernard. “Hoorie sweetness, ek waardeer vreeslik dat jy graag ‘n verrass-inkie wil reg hê vir vanaand, maar ek is nou al ge-hare en ge-naels en het by al die coffee shops cappuchinos gedrink en twee keer by die Wimpy ... Ek kom nou huis toe want ek is dood-moeg van die niksdoen. Al wat tussen my en die rooi tapyt vanaand staan is ‘n middagslapie! Ja, ja – ek sal net by die voordeur in en nêrens anders nie; ek belowe ek sal nie koekeloer nie!”
Laatmiddag kom maak Bernard vir Daisy wakker. “Kom, Prinses, als is reg vir jou. En ek het net die regte musiek ook vir ‘n regte Afrika sonsondergang. Jou gunsteling – Ismael Lo se Jammu Afrika. Ek maak solank die sjampanje oop, die weduwee van Champagne.”
“Nee Bernard man, jy het gesê ons braai som-mer. Dan is die Franse vonkel mos oorbodig...”
“Ja, wel. Ek het gedink ons moet miskien net afskop met dit.”
Buite op die stoep is die tafel pragtig gedek met blomme en kerse. Langs die groot wildevy is daar ‘n vuur gemaak en ‘n paar kampstoele.
“Ook maar ‘n groot blêddie rumoer vir net ‘n paar ekstra kerse...” dink Daisy morrend. “Mans kan so dramaties wees.”
Bernard is vreemd senuweeagtig. Hy draai aanhoudend om Daisy – maak haar glas vol, steek nog ‘n sigaret aan – en kry nie lekker sy sit nie. Tot ‘n stuk of vyftig mense begin sing en
ry vir ry langs die vuur kom staan. Die koor is aangetrek in die kleure van die sonsondergang – oranje en rooi en goud. Hulle lag spierwit vir Daisy se oopmond verbasing en sing ‘n paar tradisionele liedjies met ritme en a cappella instrumentklanke. Dan, op ‘n gebaar van die koorleier, kom ‘n klein dogtertjie met ‘n blink laggie na Daisy toe aangestap. Sy het ‘n hout-kissie in haar hand. By Daisy se stoel kom kniel sy en bied die kissie met beide hand vir Daisy aan. Die koor sing ‘All women are queens’.
Daisy kyk onbegrypend na Bernard. “Toe, Daisy, dis vir jou. Maak oop en kyk.”
Op die wit satyn binne-in die kissie is daar ‘n ring. Nie ‘n sommerso ring nie; ‘n serious RING. Platinum en diamant. En nog diamante. Dan hou Bernard Daisy se hand vas en hy kniel langs die dogtertjie in die stof.
“Daisy, ek het hierdie nog nooit vantevore gedoen nie. Maar van die eerste dag toe ek jou by die pakhuis ontmoet het, het ek die gedagte gehad om dit te doen. Groot asseblief, sal jy met my trou? En met jou lang bene en blonde hare en onvoorspelbaarheid en giggellag en skerp intellek vir altyd by my bly?”
Daisy kyk na Bernard. Na die stralende dogtertjie. Na die koor met die groot glimlagge.
“Skuus?” sê sy.“Asseblief Daisy, groot asseblief. Sal jy met
my trou?”“Gooi asseblief eers nog van daardie Franse
vonkel in, Bernard. My glas is leeg.”“Hierso, Daisy.” Bernard se stem raak bietjie
bewerig terwyl Daisy sy oë vermy en diep ingedagte sit en kyk na die vuur.
“Bernard, ek het nou gedink...”“Ja, Daisy?”“Diep gedink.”“Ja, Daisy?”“Vir ‘n volle tien sekondes regtig gefokus op
die vraag.”“Ja, Daisy?”“Ja, Bernard.”“Daisy?”“Natuurlik, jou liewe, lawwe man! Natuurlik
sal ek met jou trou!” En sy bars uit van die lag oor die verligting wat oor Bernard spoel. Hy pluk vir Daisy regop en soen haar te midde van die lag en gejuig van die koor en plaaswerkers.
“Hei Daisy – en moenie dink ek gaan lank wag nie! Ons troue gaan die heel eerste troue by die gastehuis wees en miskien moet ons sommer in Johannesburg ook trou. Sal twee maande genoeg tyd wees om alles te reël, my mooiste?” Bernard jubel.
“Stadig oor die klippers, Bernard. Jy hol onder jouself uit – gewoonlik sit ‘n mens eers die ring aan die vinger voor jy die uitnodi gings begin uitstuur, jy weet...” Daisy giggel onbe-daard. Die oomblik raak nou te groot vir haar ook.
“O, en jy hoef nie vir Ousus-hulle te bel om die nuus te vertel nie. Hulle is al amper hier. En nog so ‘n paar van ons pêlle. Daai tafel op die stoep was sommer net ‘n decoy – die regte partytjie is op ‘n geheime plek in die bos. En ek het jou nie vertel nie – ons nuwe buurman is ‘n sjef. ‘n Uitmuntende sjef wat al in Michelin-ster restaurante gewerk het. Hy het vir al die kos gesorg en dis ook sommer sy oudisie vir ‘n pos by die gastehuis. Toevallig, nê? Maar hy sê jy bak die heel lekkerste brood wat hy nog ooit geëet het!”
Daisy lag vir Bernard se gebabbel. Sy het hom nog nooit so opgewonde gesien nie.
Dis heelwat later toe Daisy vir Bernard sy Valentynspersent gee: pragtige bloedrooi onder klere, stewig aan Daisy toegedraai met Gladwrap en ‘n groot, bloedrooi strik op die maag.

Julle het ons pa besonders versorg
The ultimate ambassador for the family, his faith, his culture
and nation. When these divides are successfully conquered, the resulting relationships and friendships stand the true test of time.
Mohamed would have liked nothing better than to go on a proper fi shing trip with his sons. Logistical-ly, this could never happen. Instead this was his gift to us - enabling us to get out there and experience what he never could, consistently available with sound advice, ample hardware and a friendly and encour-
aging ear on our return.One normally pops into shops, ef-
fects purchases, and gets out as soon as humanly possible. Mohamed sup-plied us with an alternative - always welcoming, giving us the chance to dawdle and refl ect a while. To say he will be sorely missed is an understatement. That comfortable old settee as part of the furniture will now be replaced, goodbye my friend … jou yster!
- Jeremy Bryan (Louis Trich-ardt)
As a club, we were shocked to hear about the sudden and unexpected
passing of Mr Mohamed Rasool of Cycle Centre on Thursday, 12 Fe-bruary, and decided to pay homage to him and his family by arranging an informal memorial ride.
On Saturday, 14 February, more than 50 cyclists, members of the Roadhogs, private motorcyclists and numerous other clients of Cycle Centre, came together to pay their respects to Mohamed’s family.
We were overwhelmed by the support from the community.
The ride proceeded without any incident and the local community applauded us as we made our way towards the Cycle Centre business premises and then towards the Rasool residence, where the family received us with open arms, and all were able to pay their last respects.
We hope that memorial ride will create awareness with the local public to see how many cyclists we have in our community and what a big part it plays in the social structure of our successful town. As a cycling club we would like to thank the following institutions for their support and assistance: Makhado Municipality, Makha-do Traffi c Department, Makhado SAPS, Soutpansberg Town Watch, Roadhogs, Reuben, all the unknown cyclists, motorists, friend, family and supporters that participated.
We hope to make this an annual event where we can create cycling safety awareness and pay our re-spects to all the fallen cyclists.
Kind regards and blessings.
