him but nobody seemed to want to do so.Six years later she was invited to attend a

friend’s aunt’s wake where she was introducedto him and only realisedmuch later during theirfirst date who he was and confessed to falling inlove with him the night of that competition.One can tell by the lookonhis face that he loves

Kommer oor vullishoop wat nare reuk verspreiTAMSYN JANTJIES

Jasminestraat-inwoners is keel-vol oor die aaneenlopende onwet-tige storting op ’n vakante stukgrond in Sercor Park, Strand.

Volgens hulle word hierdie grond,wat aan die Stad Kaapstad behoort,al virmeer as vyf jaar as ’n stortings-terrein gebruik. En ’n onlangsebrand, op Donderdag 8 Januarie, hetdie inwoners se woede verder ge-stook. Die oorsaak van die brand isonbekend.Vullis wat op die grond gestort

word, hoop by die dag op en ’n “walg-like” reuk versprei daarvandaan,verduidelik inwoner Ingrid Lode-wyk.Lodewyk beweer ook dat die ge-

meenskap se pleidooie op dowe oreval. ‘‘Ons skakel gereeld die munisi-paliteit en die Metro-polisie, maardie gemors word eers skoongemaaknadat die polisie die saak by die mu-nisipaliteit aanmeld,’’ sê Lodewyk.Lodewyk sê die situasie is “onaan-

vaarbaar” en is bekommerd oor diegesondheid van kinders wat gereeldin die vullishoop se omgewing speel.’n Verskeidenheid rommel soos

huishoudelike afval, diere-oorskot,bourommel en ouklerewordhier ge-stort. Die gemeenskapmeen die stukgrond kan beter benut word.“Hoekom kan daar nie ’n speel-

park op die perseel opgerig wordnie,” vra Lodewyk. Agmat Daggia,gemeenskapsleier in die area sê, ‘ekis baie ontsteld oor die gemors. Hoe-kom kan daardie stuk nie afgebakenword nie? Die reuk is so erg datmen-se daar naby nie hul deure en ven-sters kan oopmaak nie, want dit

maak hulle naar. Daggia het die pro-bleem aan rdl. JohanMiddleton rap-porteer, wat op sy beurt navraag bydie Stad Kaapstad se parke afdelinggedoen het.“Hulle sê dat daar nie ’n speelpark

opgerig kan word nie, want daar isreeds een in die omgewing,” verdui-delik Middleton. “Ek het gedurendedie vakansie deur die hele wyk geryen het opgelet dat die rommelpro-bleemgedurendehierdietydoraltoe-neem; mense gooi hul rommel oral.’’Hy sê ook dat die Stad nie aanbe-

veeldatdrommedaarneergesitwordnie.

Die inwoners in Jasminestraat, Sercor Park weet nie hoe die brandop die vullishoop ontstaan het nie. Dit is hoe die toneel gelyk het ná die vuur geblus is.

Don’t buy stolengoods – policeIn light of a recent spike in house-break-ins and robberies reported toLwandle police, they have issued a re-quest to the public and second-handshops torefrain frompurchasinggoodswhich they suspect are stolen.Anycommunitymembers or second-

hand shop owners could be arrestedandchargedfor thepossessionofstolengoods should they be found with suchgoods. Police are continuing to executestop and search operations and ran-domly checks at second-hand shops.Anyonewith informationabout indi-

viduals selling stolenproperty is askedto contact the Lwandle Police Stationat 021 845 2060 or 10111.Arewardwill be given to individuals

who have provided positive feedback.

City wants to legislatealternative smoking devicesTheCityofCapeTownwilles-calate its efforts this year forlegislativeclarityonthewidearray of alternative smokingdevices and habits that havebecome commonplace inSouth Africa.Earlier this year, City

Healthsolicited legalopinionfrom the National Depart-ment of Health about the useof e-ciga-rettes.This con-

tinues to be agrey area,not only inSouth Africabut aroundthe globe,and is cur-rently not provided for in theTobacco Control Amend-ment Act.Ongoing research into

hookahpipesor“hubblybub-blies” as the devices are com-monly known, indicates thatthey are decidedlymore dan-gerousthansocietalattitudessuggest.The most recent study in

the United States of Americafound that 39% of teens andyoung adults who had previ-ously smoked hookah pipeswent on to smoke cigarettes.“Hookah pipes are very

popular in Cape Town, notjust among adults, but alsochildren, because there is aperception that the flavouredtobacco is somehow notharmful,” said the City’sMayoralCommitteeMember

for Health, Councillor Bene-dicta van Minnen.“Tobacco is tobacco, no

matter what the flavour. Weneed to be more mindful as asociety about the burdenwe’re placing on the health-caresystem. IntheCapeespe-cially, we have very high lev-els of TB and other respirato-ry diseases and sowe need to

make everyeffort to com-bat those, in-cluding pre-ventionthrough re-sponsiblepersonalchoices.”CityHealth

has met with researchersfrom both the University ofCape Town and the Universi-ty of the Western Cape. Theconsensus is that while re-search is not definitive,smoking hookah pipe isharmful. Researchers are al-so in agreement that nicotineremains one of the most ad-dictive substances, especial-ly for young people.“I will be raising the issue

with thenational healthmin-ister to push for legal clarityon the use of hookah pipesand e-cigarettes.“I amnotnecessarilypush-

ing for a ban on the devices,because to be fair there is nodefinitive proof of their im-pact, but we do need to closethelegislativevacuumwherethesedevicesareconcerned.”

Stay cool and hydratedto avoid heat strokeHotweather canbe expected for theweeksto comeand theharvestingandschool ath-letics season is in full swing.

The provincial Health Department says ba-bies, elderlypeopleand thoseworkingorexer-cising in hot places are at particular risk forheat stroke or exhaustion.Tips to survive the heat:) People using chronic medication need to

drinkextrawaterduringheatwaves toensurethat their kidneys function well.

) Stay out of the sun if at all possible, if not,wear a large hat to protect the head from thesun. Use an umbrella to add shade and use asmall wet towel or cloth under hats or onshoulders to help keep cool.

) Stay hydrated – in the current tempera-tures, staying hydrated is most important –drink as much water as you need.

) Always carry water with you.) Ensure that elderly people and the infirm

have easy access to water.) Breastfeed on demand – breastmilk is all

that babies younger than six months require,youneednot give thebabywater or tea to ‘cooldown.’

) Take your baby to the clinic at the firstsign of diarrhoea and/or vomiting

) Keep babies in the shade or indoors.) Wipe baby down with a clean damp cloth

– this will help keep them cool.) Do not cover babies in a lot of clothing

and blankets; light clothing is sufficient.) Keep babies and children in the shade.) Avoid sports activities if possible, if sport

is essential; ensure that there is a lot of waterand rehydration solution available.

) Children must wear hats and sunblock) Keep children indoors between 11:00 and
