n KATMOORDENAAR het vir dietweede keer in twee maande toe-geslaan in Noorder-Paarl.

Wynand Haasbroek van Truter-straat het verlede week op di gesinse sterwende kat afgekom in hultuin.

Ek was op pad werk toe, toe mybuurman my aandag op Rudi vestigwat onder n bos gel het.

Ek kon dadelik sien dat hy besigwas om te vrek. Skuim het uit symond geborrel en hy kon skaars be-weeg.

Die kat het binne enkele minutegesterf nadat Haasbroek op hom af-gekom het.

Ek weet nie hoe lank hy daar gelhet nie, maar ek kon sien dat hy nbaie pynlike dood gesterf het.

Dit is die tweede kat binne tweemaande wat die Haasbroek-gesinaan die dood afstaan.

Hul ander kat het op dieselfde wy-se gesterf.

Albei ons katte was baie gehegaan ons familie. Hulle was baie liefvirkindersenhetnievergedwaalnie.Rudi sou soms by ons bure se kin-dersgaanspeel.Niemandhetooitge-kla nie.

Wynand se ma, Mimi, het Rudi seliggaamdieselfdeoggendnadieBou-levard Dierehospitaal geneem. Hieris van sy organe verwyder en na nlaboratorium gestuur vir toetse omvas te stel waaraan hy dood is.

En Vrydag is die resultate metskok ontvang: Rudi is vergiftig metn verbode gifstof, dieldrin.

Hierdie insekdoder is n verbodemiddel in Suid-Afrika en die meestelande wreldwyd.

VeeartsdrEmileduPlessishetge-s dat n dier wat met dieldrin vergif-tig word, n baie pynlike dood sterf.

Hy het bevestig dat dieldrin reedsvanaf 1983 n verbode middel is ennie meer verkoop mag word nie.

Haasbroekisvasbesloteomniediesaak daar te laat nie en het n klagby die Paarl polisiestasie gel.

Veral duiweboere is dikwels in nstryd gewikkel met katte.

Fees op berg bendrukAnne Kruger

DIE nuwe Cultivaria-fees wat verlede naweek opPaarlberg aangebied is, kan nog n groot suksesword. So meen die meerderheid feesgangers on-der die duisende wat die naweek daar ingeloerhet, ten spyte van n paar renbuie.

Dis pragtig hier op die berg - n baie mooi ligging,enekhet nbaiegoeieproduksiegesien,DieNaaima-sjien, het Wellingtonner Hester de Kock ges.

Verskeie plaaslike inwoners meen die feit dat aldie produksies op een terrein aangebied word, is ngroot pluspunt.

Dit was n wonderlike naweek, s Michel Fishervan die Paarl.

Ons het puik vertonings gesien, en die pryse vanverversingswasgladniebuitensporignie.Dienuweterrein het n feestelike atmosfeer gehad, en menseuit die hele gemeenskap het heerlik saamgekuier.

Benewens die aanbod van teater en musiek be-dags in tente op die terrein, is die amfiteater by dieTaalmonument vir drie aande agtermekaar volge-pak vir puik produksies waaronder Tydloos, ChrisChameleon en Mango Groove.

Bokant die amfiteater is n nuwe terras geskepwaar verversings bedien is.

Van die feesgangers het gekla dat die verversings-gebied tekleinenbeknopwas, endathulle vermoesstap op stofgetrapte paadjies na sommige van dietente op die terrein.

Maar feesganger Hugo Holloway meen at daargoedvoorsieninggemaakisvirkrankesenbejaardesmet die golfkarretjie-vervoer.

Ekwildiefeesbestuurgelukwensmetdierelingsvir vervoerbystand. Daar is simpatiek hulp verleenaan vele mense wat moeilik oor die weg kom. Ek be-sef dat hierdie diens geld moes kos en was derhalweverbaas dat dit gratis aangebied is.

Volgens feesdirekteur Gerhard Meyer was dieaanbiedingvandie feesopPaarlberg nuitersuitda-gende projek, veral omdat die grondeienaar, die De-partement van Openbare Werke, nie al die terrein-voorbereiding betyds voltooi het nie.

Ons moes reuse-uitgawes aangaan om te verse-ker dat die fees wel voortgaan.

My gevoel is egter dat dit die beste skuif is en datdit die gerieflikste feeskonsep in die land is vir fees-gangers wat uiteraard mos die klinte is, en waar-sonder ons nie n fees kan aanbied nie. Die kunste-naars met wie ek gesels het sover was ook positief.

Daar kort nog baie werk aan infrastruktuur,paadjies, landskappering,beligtingendiesmeeromdievenueperfektekryenekvertrouonssaldieborgekry om ons daarmee te help.

Watdiebeknopte verversingsterrasbetref, is onsbeplanning om volgende jaar te verseker dat daaroorgenoeg ruimte is vir mense wat by die tafels wilkuier en die pragtige uitsig wil geniet.

Daar was Paarliete wat my kom groet het en geshet dat hul nog nooit by die venue was nie en dathul baie bendruk was.

Pastoor woedend oor taxisLise Beyers

n PASTOOR het verlede week glo uitge-haakbydieverkeersafdelingennprovin-siale verkeersbeampte bygedam.

Die drama het Donderdagmiddag ontvouby die Daljosafat-toetssentrum, waar pas-toor Cyril David Scholtz twee minibustaxisgeneem het vir padwaar-digheidstoetse.

Scholtz, wat as pastoorgereeld praatjies lewer opRadioKC,bedryfsyeietaxi-besigheid.

Die voertuie het egterdaardie dag nie hul toet-sings geslaag nie. Van diebande was afgeloop, ligtehet nie gewerk nie en eenvan die voertuie se hand-rem was buite werking.

HirhetScholtztoereedswarm onder die kraag ge-raak. Hy het uit die toetslo-kaal gestorm om by dietoetssentrumhoof, CorrieCornelissen, te gaan kla.

Cornelissen het Scholtzgevra om te bedaar en hetaan hom verduidelik diewet is die wet en dat syvoertuie nie padwaardig isnie.

Scholtz is terugnadie toetslokaalwaarhyglo verder gaan vuur spuug het.

ProvinsialeverkeersbeampteKenPheifferhet hom ook probeer kalmeer, maar Scholtzhetvolgensooggetuiesletterlikinsygesigbe-gin spoeg.

En die volgende oomblik haak Scholtz afen boks vir Pheiffer reg in die oog met n hou

wat Mike Schutte sou jaloers maak.Pheifferseregterooghetonmiddellikbegin

opswel.Scholtzhet ineenvansyminibustaxisge-

klim en toe Pheiffer hom probeer arresteer,het Scholtz die venster vinnig opgedraai ensodoende die verkeersman se arm vasge-vang.

Di isookerggekneusndie voorval.

Scholtz is toe met nspoed daar weg.

Cornelissen het hiernavir Pheiffer na die Mbekwe-ni polisiestasie vergesel omnklagvanaanrandingteenScholtz te l.

Maar met hul aankomswas Scholtz reeds daar enbeweer toe dat hy deurPheiffer aangerand is.

n Klagdossier is wel teenScholtz geopen.

Scholtz het by navraagges dat hy nie verder oordie aangeleentheid wil uit-brei nie, n konsultasiemet sy regsadviseur.

VolgenshomhetPheifferhom eerste teen die gesiggestamp met sy kop. Oog-getuies wat op die toneel

was, ontken egter hierdie bewering.Cornelissen het ges dat hy Scholtz al n

geruime tyd ken en nog nooit die man so be-duiweld gesien nie.

Maar ons laat ons nie deur sulke gedragintimideer nie. Ons sal die wette gehoor-saam.

6 . Paarl Post Thursday 3 November 2011Opinion Menings

THE killing of a cat in Paarl North by means of poisoning, leaves abitter taste in the mouth.

The death of this animal was long, slow and excruciatingly painful.Unfortunately this is nothing new in the area. There have been

a number of poisonings and even reports of cats dying after beingcaught in traps.

In some cases, cats are caught, transported into the mountains andleft to fend for themselves.

A local vet says that cats often go missing and his conclusion is thatthese cats have been killed or run over, because normally a cat willfind its own way home.

There is no excuse for people to resort to poisoning animals. Yes,cats can sometimes be a pest to neighbours, and cat owners shouldensure that their pets are neutered or spayed to curb their wanderingstreak.

But the irritated party should discuss the problem of a problem petwith their neighbours and not take drastic, cruel and cowardly meas-ures such as poisoning.

Paarl PostCowardly measures

WANNEER mens oor geskiede-nis in Suid-Afrika skryf, is daarnet een plek waar jy kan begin.Die Kaapse argiefbewaarplek,Roelandstraat 72, Kaapstad,huisves die oudste dokumentewat in hierdie land geskep is.

Dit is daar waar die versame-lingenbewaringvanonsgeskied-kundige rekords formeel beginhet, waarmee geskiedskrywerssedert die 1800s begin werk hetom die verhaal van Suid-Afrika tekonstrueer, sover ons skriftelikebronne kan aanwend.

Hierdieargiefversamelings (do-kumente, kaarte, geboueplanneen later ook fotos) verteenwoor-dig die volledigste ge-dokumenteerde ge-skiedenis van enigeland ter wreld virdie eerste twee eeuedaarvan -as erkende,begrensde geografie-se gebied.

Met geskiedenis word bedoelverslaglewering oor die herkomsen samekoms van ons huidigenasie; hoe ons hier gekom het enhoe ons as n lappieskombers-ge-meenskap met uiteenlopendewaardesisteme ontwikkel het.

Aanvanklik het die VereenigdeOostindische Compagnie (VOC),sedert 1652, daarop gefokus omdaaglikse verslae van die doen enlate van die grootste maatskappyvanalletyeendieeerstemulti-na-sionale maatskappy in mense-heugenis, in te samel.

Die maatskappy-direkteure,dieHereSewentien,wouweetwatin hul kolonies gebeur sodat or-dentlik boekgehou kon word.

Daar was geen politieke motie-we nie dit sou kom met die aan-komsvandieBritte,reedsin1795- maar dit was ook waarom hier-die argiewe as outentiek beskoukan word.

Die dagboek- en notuleskry-wers wat ons oudste historiesedokumente geskep het, was nieop propaganda ingestel was nie.

Hierdie skrywes was nie bedoelom deur enigiemand anders asdie maatskappy-direkteure ge-lees te word nie, maar ons weetook dat die skrywers uit die per-spektief vanhulle tydgeskryfhet,net soos ons vandag steeds doen.

Daarom is dit nodig om soveelmoontlike bronne sm te ge-bruik wanneer navorsing gedoenword.

Inwoners van die Paarlvalleiwat die Kaapse Argief besoek, salbyna net so ver moet ry daarheenas wat die totale inhoud van dieargiefkluiseomvat:meeras40ki-lometer. Die bewaarplek is in1989 voltooi en bevat 45 brand-kluise,elkeenmeteenlinirekilo-meter rakspasie agt vloere vol.

Dit is daar waar die oudstekaarte van die koloniale tye af be-sigtigkanword,ookvandiePaarl,Stellenbosch en Wellington. Hierlookdieougeelgrondbriewewatsedert 1687 deur Simon van derStel aan vryburgers uitgereik is.

Sedertdien het die pastorale le-wenswyse in di omstreke, waar

die San en die KhoilankvooronsEurope-se voorsate agter wei-ding en water aange-trekhet, onherroeplikverander.

Verandering is in-derdaad net so on-

keerbaar as wat dit nodig is. Van-dagisdaar nnuwebelangstellingin geskiedenis Giliomee enMbenga se Nuwe Geskiedenisvan Suid-Afrika boekstaaf die so-genaamde voorgeskiedenis vanSuid-Afrika deur te verwys na dieheel eerste inwoners.

Paarl Hospitaal se ongevalle stel ons teleurOP 7 Augustus, n Saterdag-aand, moes ek een van my fami-lielede na die Paarl Hospitaalneem,omdathysiekgeraakhet.

Met ons aankoms is ons toe-gelaat in die eerste wagkamer.Om 01:00 is sy observasie ge-doen. Die wagkamer se nuwestoele was ook vol bloed.

Hierna is ons na die tweedewagkamer verwys. Hier het ekmy verstom om te sien hoe 20tot 30 pasinte, sommige meterge pyn, sit en wag om gehelpte word - sommiges met bloed-wonde wat nog vars was.

Sommige pasinte het al opstoele gel en slaap, wat vir myn aanduiding was dat hulle allank daar gewag het.

By nadere gesprekke met pa-sinte moes ek uitvind dat som-mige al sedert die middag daarsit om deur n dokter gehelp teword.

Dit was hardverskeurend omte sien hoe n man op sy kniegaan sit het van die pyn. n Mei-sie wat in haar oog gesteek washet die hele tyd gehuil. n Manmet glasstukke aan sy oogbankhettoemaardieaftoggeblaasenis net met sy oop wond huis toe.

Nog was dit nie die einde vanons dilemma nie. My familielidwas inpynenekhethomnetbe-

tyds in die toilet gekry om te vo-meer.

Die ure het stadigaan verby-getik,maarniemandisooitvan-af die wagkamer geroep nie.

Teen 17:00 het ek besluit omhuis toe te gaan. My vrou het bydie familielid gebly.

Die Sondagoggend is ek terughospitaal toe. My familielid iseers om 08:30 gehelp, maar diedokter het hom meegedeel datdie ongevalle daar is vir messte-ke en wonde.

Die dokter het hom na n kli-niek verwys en hom nog n briefook gegee om n kliniek te be-soek.

Ek dink dat dit onnodig is omn volle nag in n noodeenheid tewag vir hulp en dan word jy niegehelp nie.

Ek wil graag weet hoekomdaar so n vertraagde proses is

om n dokter te sien en hoekomdaarniemeerdoktersoornawe-ke aan diens kan wees nie.

Paarl Ongevalle, julle steekdie pragtige nuwe hospitaal indie skande.

Teleurgestelde pasint

Anger over destruction ofagents For Sale signsLise Beyers

Werner van derMerwe discoveredthat various of hisFor Sale signageboards had been re-moved from outsideproperties in MainStreet, Paarl North,only tohavebeencutupandstuck in frontof holes which hadbeendug for thecon-struction of a securi-ty fence.

TheseboardscostR50 each. Whatgives anybody theright to destroy pri-vate property likethis? demanded anirate van der Merwe.

The property own-er of 571 MainStreet, where thewall is being con-structed, could notbe reached for com-ment in connectionwith the destructionof the boards.

* The Drakenstein Municipality haspointedout that theyaredetermined to en-sure that illegal signage is controlled.

There have recently been many com-plaints, especially about estate agent

boards, adorning Paarls Main Street.Accordingtomunicipalby-lawsForSale

signs may be placed on the property ofhouses which are for sale.

On Show boardsare however only al-lowed to be placed intheMainStreet todi-rectpotential buyersto properties, fromThursday to Sun-day.

Even then, estateagents need permis-sionfromtheMunic-ipality to exhibitthese boards.

Other signagewhich is placed onlamp posts also re-quire permissionfrom the Municipali-ty and may only bevisible for a pre-scribed period oftime.

Even signage onfencesorwallsofpri-vate property is ille-gal unless the rele-vant permission isgiven.

Residents enforce streetjustice in MbekweniLise Beyers

ANOTHER kangaroocourt were held inMbekweni this pastweekend, in an upri-sing of the commu-nity against crime.

Twoweeksagoamanwas allegedly beaten todeath by an angry mobat the informal settle-ment OR. The commu-nity accused Thandux-olo Peter (38) of robbinga woman of her hand-bag the previous day.

Instead of reportingthe incident to theMbekweni police sta-tion, the communityseverely assaulted thesuspect.

Earlier that sameweek, a delegation ofthe community metwith police to voicetheir anger about cri-me in the area.

According to sour-ces, the community isunsatisfied about the fact that criminalsare not being put behind bars, but arecontinuing to walk the streets days afterthey have committed crimes.

Residents say they are disillusionedby the actions of the courts and willtherefore hold their own court procee-dings.

Last weekend three young suspectssuspected of various robberies in the

area, were apprehen-ded by the communi-ty of Langabuya infor-mal settlement.

The victims weretied up, severely bea-ten and pelted withstones. Police arrivedon the scene, possiblysaving the lives of thevictims.

The victims were atthat stage already co-vered in blood andunconscious.

Akhona Jordan, Si-yabonga Poni and Si-vuyile Nani, all resi-ding in the area, weretreated in hospital.

Police are investiga-ting charges of at-tempted murder. Noone has, however,been arrested.

The Mbekweni sta-tion commander, ColCP Geldenhuys,asked the public to

refrain from taking the law into theirown hands.

Those who are found guilty of theseactions will themselves end up before acourt of law.

Anyone who can help the police withtheir investigation can contact the policestation at 021 868 9901.

Policemen robdelivery vehicleSUSPECTS possibly posing as policemenrobbed a delivery vehicle in Du Toits Kloofshortly after midnight on Saturday.

The driver of the Hyundai truck wastransporting a consignment of cigaretteson Du Toits Kloof Pass in the direction ofPaarl, when he was allegedly pulled over byawhiteFordFocuswithblue lights flashingon its roof.

Two men, wearing bullet-proof vests, or-deredtheoccupantsofthetruckoutatgun-point.

A minibus taxi with five men inside thenstopped at the scene and the two victimswere forced into it.

The minibus drove off in the direction ofWorcester and dropped the two men at theweighbridge near Rawsonville, robbingthem also of their cellphones and cash.

The Hyundai truck was found desertedon Sunday near Kraaifontein, but the trail-er with its consignment was missing.

Cigarettes to the value of R3,9 millionhave been stolen.

No one has yet been arrested in connec-tion with the incident.

Ystervark in Hoofstraat laat stapmaats drafOMnystervarkindiePaarlseHoofstraatte sien stap, is nie elkeen beskore nie.

Wynand Fourie was Saterdagoggend 29Oktober om 05:55 op pad om sy stapmaats(ds Gawie van Bruikhuizen en sy vrou, Su-san) in Bothastraat te kry om in Paarlbergte gaan stap.

Net voor die Polisiekollege het Wynandgesien hoe n ystervark vanuit die Hoof-straat stap tot indie tuinvandiePolisiekol-lege.

Die veiligheidswag by die Polisiekollegehet hom buite weste geskrik vir die vreem-de gedierte.

Dieystervarkhetstukkendemerkelangssy bek gehad en Wynand het besluit dat ditdie beste sal wees om die ystervark terugte probeer kry in die berg.

Heel versigtig het hy daarin geslaag omhomterug te begelei oordieHoofstraat enop inMalanstraatmetdiehulpvansystap-maats.

Die ystervark het sy eie roete gekies ensy begeleiers moes soms vinnig draf om byte bly en te keer dat hy in tuine ingaan.

In Kruisstraat het hy egter n lang ruk inn tuin gaan vassteek en dit het nogal n tydgevat om hom weer daar weg te kry.

UiteindelikisdieoptogopinBothastraat,dwars in Napierstraat en by van der Poels-doordrift op tot in die berg.

Die episode het langer as n halfuur ge-duur, maar uiteindelik was hy veilig waarhy hoort in Paarlberg, vertel Van Broek-huizen.

Join your fireprotectionassociationACHALLENGINGfireseasonliesaheadaf-terthelowwinterrainfallandtheSAWea-ther Services are predicting a hot drysummer this year that could result in nu-merous runaway fires.

Landowners are urged to join their localfireprotectionassociations(FPA),notonlytohelpcombat fires inruralareas,but for theirown benefit in case of a fire.

Larger insurance companies have startedto reject veldfire damage claims in caseswhere there isaFPA in theareaand theclai-ming landowner is not a member.

Landowners who are not members of anFPA will also be presumed guilty if a veld firestarts or spreads from their property andthey could end up having to pay for all fire-fightingcosts,aswellasanydamagesoftheirneighbours.

Advantages of FPA membership are a de-creased risk of veldfires and assistance infighting them;nopresumptionofnegligencein civil claims; cost saving through sharingof services, and insurance against costs offirefighting; assistance from the Minister,Government Institutions and other sche-mes,egworkincentiveteamssuppliedtocle-araliens;andprovisionforrelieffromcertainprevention measures, such as fire breaks.

The Paardeberg Fire Protection Associati-onistoshortly incorporate165000haof theBerg River valley, extending from RiebeekWest to Franschhoek, between the LimietMountains and Philadelphia (including thewhole of Drakenstein, Klapmuts, Simondi-um and Franschhoek.

La Motte shines in wine tourism awardsTHE La Motte winery outside Fransch-hoek has been voted the South Africanwinner of the Best of Wine TourismAwardspresentedbytheGreatWineCapi-tals network.

The announcement was made last weekduring a gala dinner in Mainz, Germany,presented by GWC, a network of the worldsleading wine-producing countries that sha-re international best practice in the name ofadvancingstandardsinwinetourismacrossthe world.

La Motte was declared the winner of theArts and Culture category for its impressiveartmuseumhousinganextensivecollectionof works by South African master Pierneefand other artists.

Whatclinchedthevictorywasthewinerysconsistently high performance across othercategoriesaswell.TheseincludedSustaina-bleWineTourismPractices (secondrunner-up), Architecture and Landscapes (secondrunner-up) and Innovative Wine TourismExperiences (third runner-up).

Other regional wenners are Delaire GraffLodgesandSpaonHelshoogte (best accom-

modation), Waverley Hills near Tulbagh(sustainable wine tourism practices), Toka-raon Helshoogte (wine tourism restaurant),Solms-Delta (innovative wine tourism expe-rience) and Waterford Estate (wine tourismservices). Grande Provence was runner-upin two categories.

Says Andr Morgenthal of Wines of SouthAfrica (Wosa): There is an increasing recog-nitionthatwinetourismaddsvalueandgre-ater meaning and continuity to the engage-mentwithwinelovers.Socialmediaalsoma-kes a big contribution.

As the Best of Wine Tourism title holderfor2012,LaMottejoinsiconicnamesinwinesuchasSpainsBodegasCampoViejoofRio-ja; and the famous thirteenth century Ch-teau dAgassac of Bordeaux in France.

GWCs members, in addition to CapeTown-Cape Winelands, include Mainz-Rheinhessen (Germany), Bilbao-Rioja(Spain), Bordeaux (France), Florence (Italy),Mendoza (Argentina), Porto (Portugal), SanFrancisco-Napa(UnitedStates)andNewZe-alands Christchurch.

SaysHeinKoegelenberg,CEOofLaMotte:
