T
able View residents have lauded a new
initiative by a local business to curb
taxi troubles in Raats Drive.
A social media post showing taxis that
have parked illegally being clamped and
boxed in by other motorists went viral last
week as Table View residents showed their
support for the initiative.
The behaviour of taxis in and around the
Bayside Mall precinct has been a bone of
contention for several months as motorists
often vent their anger towards illegal opera-
tors. Among the main concerns are taxis
that drive in oncoming lanes endangering
their passengers and othermotorists, illegal
ranking alongBlaauwbergRoad and the bot-
tle neck at the McDonalds slip way on
BlaauwbergRoadas taxis block access to the
mall as theyunloadpassengers this in spite
of an allocated pick-up and drop-off point at
the mall.
Pieter Koekemoer, a former traffic officer,
garnered a favourable response on the Table
ViewNeighbours (new) page lastweekwhen
he posted pictures of their initiative. Speak-
ing to TygerBurger, Koekemoer says along
with Craig Douglas, the owner of MotorPort
Bayside and the filling station, they had
enough of taxis using their property to col-
lect and drop-off passengers.
Douglas says the entrance in Raats Drive
is blocked off daily as taxis continue to use
their property.
Koekemoer explains after reporting the
matter to authoritieshewas continually told
traffic officers could not intervene as this
was private property despite the subsequent
congestion caused along Raats Drive.
We have just had enough. I used to be a
traffic officer, and I can tell you its non-
sense. The taxi operators do what they like
and block several entrances from Blaauw-
berg Road. We decided to take action and
boxed them in. We also clamped them for
standing illegally on our property andmade
the owners of the taxis pay a release fee, he
says.
Koekemoer explains only three taxis were
clamped, but the message to other drivers
was clear. According to Douglas, since last
week, no taxis have used their property and
he is glad they got the message.

Koekemoer says their action did result in ac-
tionwith taxi drivers, but the teamwould not
easily be intimidated.
We are not intimidated by taxi drivers and
thosewhohadcomplaintswere told to contact
the ownerswhowere then required to pay the
release fee.
This is a huge wake-up call for them. We
have had enough, he says.
The initiative garnered several messages
from residents showing their support. The
post also started various discussions as resi-
dents also shared their experiences and frus-
trations.
On various Facebook pages, there are daily
posts from irate motorists who have caught
lawlessness on camera.
When traffic operations are carried out,
they are lauded by residents.
Leon Alhadeff, chairperson of the Table
View Ratepayers Association (TVRA), met
with the business owner last week. He ex-
plains while the frustrations of residents and
businesses are clear, he was concerned about
the associated security risk.
The frustration is very clear, however, as
43% of taxis operating in the area are unli-
censed, there is concern about the possibility
of violence and seeking possible recourse. I
will be raising the matter with the City of
Cape Town, he says.

A
clarion call for Melkbosstrand resi-
dents to take to the streets to help curb
crime has been made.
According to a statement released by the
Melkbosstrand Neighbourhood Watch
(MNHW), the area is experiencing an in-
crease in criminal activity and the continu-
al expansion of urban growth along the R27
will potentially have a huge impact on the
security ofMelkbosstrand and surrounding
areas.
In response to this and other potential
threats, the watch says action needs to be
taken. Based on the success of street watch-
es experienced in other areas, the watch
hopes it will allow residents to have direct
input intohelpingprotect theirhomes, their
families and their community.
Criminals will find it difficult to operate
successfully in areas where the community
comes together and acts as one. One of the
most powerful methods of reducing crime
on our streets is for each neighbour to be
the eyes and ears of their neighbourhood,
supported by organised communication
systems at street and village levels.
The statement also saysover the last three
months Melkbosstrand has been piloting
the street watch programme in a variety of
streets throughout thevillage toassesswhat
works best given the variety of people that
make up an average street.
Residents are invited to attend the launch
of the streetwatchonWednesday 30Septem-
ber at 18:45 at Melkbosstrand High School.
Various community organisations, police,
the Community Police Forum, Melkbos-
strand Community Centre and ACVV will
be present.
Clarion call to fight crime

Festival to get green light
MONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
A
uthorities are waiting to tick one
more box before the inaugural Blou-
berg Festival is given the green light.
The festival proposal came under scruti-
ny in recent months following a public
meeting on the issue.
Last week residents discussed the matter
on socialmedia platforms and it became ap-
parent it had been approved by the City of
Cape Town.
According to City mayoral committee
member for tourism, events and economic
development, Garreth Bloor, officials are
waiting for the noise exemption permit to
be issued before the event is approved.
Bloor confirms the festival, which is
scheduled to take place at Dolphin Beach,
is expected to attract between 5 000 and
10 000 festival goers, and says the portion of
the beach utilised for the event and the
parking area adjacent to the event venue
will be closed off to the public.
All relevant plans are in place and ap-
proval of the South African Police Services
(SAPS)was receivedat theEvent Safety and
Security Planning Committeemeeting held
on Monday 21 September, he says.
According to acting mayoral committee
member for community services and spe-
cial projects, SiyabulelaMamkeli, the orga-
nisers pay R11 183 hire fee per day for the
beach with a R1 962 breakage fee.
Bloor further says theTransportManage-
ment Plan (TMP) has been developed by a
traffic consultant employed by the event or-
ganiser and there will be temporary road
closures in place.
For the festival, he explains, there will be
15 traffic officers, six metro police officers
and 25 law enforcement officers paid for by
the organisers at the current tariff charges.
According to the festival website, the
event will feature several headline acts in-
cluding MiCasa and The Kiffness among
others.
The first Blouberg Festival will take place
along Dolphin Beach to Marine Circle. In a
public meeting the organisers said the
dunes will be fenced off following
concerns about the possible environmental
impact. PHOTO: MONIQUE DUVAL

I
f nothing is being done about the eco-
nomical pressure under which wine
farms in certain areas of the Durban-
ville wine valley are, there will be no more
vineyards in these areas in 10 years time.
This warning was issued by Gerrit van
Rensburg, former provincial minister of
agriculture in theWesternCape.VanRens-
burg was appointed as chairperson of the
board of directors of the Durbanville Inner
Valley (DIV) initiative.
According to Van Rensburg, this initia-
tive was started in December 2013 by seven
wine farms on Tygervalley Road who are
facing a worsening financial outlook for
wine farming.
The purpose is to preserve the wine
farming heritage, but also to ensure viable
wine farming; to introduce other economic
activities, a higher level of development
where suitable, increase tourismandother
activities in harmony with the character
of the area and to address land reform, he
said.
The participating wine farms, which are
home to 88 families, are Altydgedacht,
Morgenster, Bloemendal, Nitida, Maas-
tricht, DAria and Altydgedacht II.
The area extends over 1 294 ha with 538
ha currently under vineyard.
Van Rensburg said these wine farmers
are under threat. In an independent study
by VinPro, an organisation rendering ex-
pert services to South African wine pro-
ducers and cellars, it was found that Dur-
banville is the least profitable wine area in
SouthAfrica compared to Robertson and
Worcester, which is the most profitable.
According to the report primary grape
production on the typical Durbanville In-
ner Valley unit is not sustainable and fi-
nancially viable in its current state.
The reasons for this is that farmers, due
to economical pressure, fell behind with
the planting of new vineyards. This led to
the ageing of vineyards and lower proceeds
per hectare, Van Rensburg said.
Especially smaller farms are at stake,
because their economy of scale is smaller.
Water is limited
and expensive to
buy. Labour is also
more expensive
than in other wine
areas. As a result of
the wine valleys
close proximity to
the city, wine farms
have to compete
with other indus-
tries in the city with
salaries, Van Rens-
burg said.
Other contributing factors include high
production costs, stagnant grape and wine
prices, cash flow problems and high debt
levels.
It is important to note that the wine in-
dustry via Vinpro itself found independ-
ently that this wine region struggles, he
said.
Land is also very expensive and there
are more pressure on these wine farmers
to sell their land to developers, he said.
All are aware of the pressures to use ag-
ricultural and conservation land for hous-
ing or business development.
The farmers therefore felt a joint initia-
tive by all the land owners in the valley,
assisted by a professional team of experts,
wouldbebest placed to comeupwith amul-
ti-pronged sustainability model such as in
the Napa Valley in the United States and
elsewhere in Europe, he explained.
The valley is located between Durban-
ville and Ridgewood, with Tyger Valley
Road to the N7 running through it a road
that could be aptly renamed Sauvignon
Boulevard, he said.
The initiative
started when the
land owners and
the Greater Tyger-
berg Partnership
(GTP) organised
two initial public
think debate ses-
sions with the City
of Cape Town.
The workshops
with the City and
GTP took place in
December 2013 and
January 2014.
The wine farmers formed a board with
representatives of the Durbanville Heri-
tage Society, The Valley Ratepayers Asso-
ciationandKenridgeTheHillsRatepayers
Association.Other institutions include the
GTP, the Stellenbosch Universitys School
of Public Leadership (SPL), provincial gov-
ernment and the City.
According toVanRensburg some techni-
cal reports have already been done, includ-
ing the one from Vinpro, as well as other
planning, tourismand other socio-econom-
ic reports.
Theonlydecision thus far is to formthis
initiative and its structures and to meet
with the province and City as the relevant
government authorities to seek guidance
and a process for the objective of the initia-
tive, he said.
Three members of DIV and three City of-
ficials met on 14 August to discuss process
options.
There are no development plans on the
table.
It must be emphasised that there is an
existing Spatial Development Framework
(SDF) of the City, which prescribes what
type of development can currently take
place in this region.
If anyproposals fall outside of this exist-
ing framework then amotivationwill need
to be submitted which will form part of the
review of the SDF, he said.
Former wine farming areas around the
Durbanville wine valley have been lost to
development, such asWelgemoed,VanRie-
beeckshof, Welgedacht, Kanonberg, Door
de Kraal, Kenridge, Durbanville Hills and
Aurora.
The vineyards and natural beauty have
made way for functional housing. Sadly,
however, even the best architecture and
landscaping is no match for nature.
Without action or forward planning in
respect of the Durbanville Inner Valley,
wine farming would cease and one vine-
yard after another would make way for ex-
cavators and concrete.
The right mix of wine farming and oth-
er economic activities canpreserve theval-
leys character and spirit, and present op-
portunities for leisure and recreation and
much more, he said.
The only decision
thus far is to form
this initiative and its
structures and to
meetwith the
province andCity...

DESIRE RORKE
@dezzierorke
The sixth annual Pink Lady Crafts for Can-
cer event has never been more successful
than this year.
In the first year, only 25 women attended
mostly because we begged them to come
whereas this year we had waiting lists for
tickets, says Theresa Richards, marketing
consultant at Top Fruit who alongwith True
Cape initiated this event to raise funds for
the Tygerberg Hospital breast cancer clin-
ics transport fund.
The prestigious event was held at DAria
wine estate on Saturday and they managed
to raise R67 000 this year.
Professor Justus Apffelstaedt, head of the
breast clinic at Tygerberg Hospital, ex-
plainedwhy this initiativewas so
invaluable.
Many of our patients live on
government grants of about
R1 200 per month. A round trip to
Tygerberg hospital will cost them
up to R150. The choice between
having enough to eat for the fami-
ly and transport for therapy is
stark.
Liza Matthews, marketing
manager at PinkLady, said it was
for this reason they chose this
cause.
Although treatment costs are
covered by government, some pa-
tients cannot afford the transport
cost to and from the hospital for
regular radiotherapy sessions.
Apffelstaedt added this year
was especially auspicious for him
as itmarked his 20th year as head
of this clinic.
More importantly, he informed women of
the latest technology in the field of breast
cancer treatment.
Oneof only twoautomatedbreast volume
scanning machines on the entire African
continent arrived four weeks ago. A probe
scans over the entire breast, during which
it records images that are sent to a computer
for 3D reconstruction, he says.
Not only is this method more effective to
detect cancerous lesions in dense breast tis-
sue of especially younger women, but it is
also not as painful as a normal mammo-
graph, he said.
After learning the art of lino printing from
Lizel Cloete, craft editor for Ideas magazine,
the women were treated to the heavenly pi-
ano soundsof virtuosoRoccodeVilliers, and
a three-course meal with apples.

The baby boom among teenagers has
dropped and authorities are pleased with
these latest statistics.
According to statistics, there were 3 316
babies born tomothers aged 18 or younger
inCapeTown in 2013, which accounted for
4,4% of all births recorded for that year.
The data for 2014 shows that 2 936, or
4,2%, of babies born fellwithin this catego-
ry. This means that the teen pregnancy
rate in Cape Town has slowed from 5,3%
in 2006 to 4,2% in 2014.
This is good news and bears testament
to the availability of contraception and ed-
ucation offered by a range of governmen-
tal and non- governmental partners, said
the Citys Maycomember for health, Siya-
bulela Mamkeli.
I also believe it is proof that young peo-
ple are taking more responsibility for
their sexual and reproductive health,
something that we have been highlighting
and it is also a key theme for World Con-
traception Day later this week.
World Contraception Day is held on
Sunday 26 September. The vision of this
annual worldwide campaign is to ensure
that everypregnancy is awantedpregnan-
cy. This is achieved through awareness
drives so that young people can make in-
formed choices about their sexual and re-
productive health.
Thehealthdepartment offers contracep-
tives at its clinics across the city, includ-
ing oral contraception, injectable contra-
ception, intra-uterine devices, Implanon,
sterilisation and condoms. Petogen, a
three-month injection, is themost popular
contraceptive at City clinics.
The health department has noticed an
increase in the uptake of reproductive
health services in the last financial year.
This can be attributed to the wide range
of options available, but also the introduc-
tion of fast lanes for family planning at
some clinics. Visits aremanaged via a sys-
tem that reduces waiting times. Where
this service is not available, waiting times
have the potential to influence whether
clients return for follow-up visits. Anoth-
er challenge is empoweringwomen so that
they can negotiate birth spacing with
their partners and involve their partners
in decisions around family planning.
The health department recently devised
additional interventions to broaden its
reach in the 12 to 18 age group.
This includes partnering with schools
and other City departments for education
and awareness programmes, fast-tracking
young people attending clinics for repro-
ductive health reasons using queue mar-
shals, increasing the availability of educa-
tional materials, establishing a Preven-
tion of Teen Pregnancy Forum to monitor
trends and highlight concerns or challen-
ges, and investigating the provision of
more youth clinics.

iteindelik is die verkeersligte by die
aansluiting van Contermanskloof-en
Tygervalleiweg aangeskakel.
Die ligte by di kruising, waar verskeie
ernstige ongelukke reeds plaasgevind het,
is Vrydag deur Gerhard Fourie, voorsitter
van Subraad 7 (Koeberg), aangeskakel.
Volgens Fourie was die kruising sonder
verkeersligte n groot kopseer. Inwoners
van Durbanville het die pad begin gebruik
om op die N7 te kom. Die N7 dien as alterna-
tief vir die N1, waarop reeds te veel verkeer
is. Uiteindelik het dit belangrik geword om
hier verkeersligte aan te bring om lewens-
verlies te voorkom, s Fourie.
Hy s die Stad Kaapstad is ernstig om in-
frastruktruur by toegangsroetes te verbe-
ter. Dit blyk of Sanral
(Suid-Afrikaanse pad-
agentskap) hul voete sleep.
So, van die Stad se kant af
probeer ons om tedoenwat
ons kan om te help.
Ons wil ook inwoners
van die omliggende gebie-
de aanmoedig om met die
Stad kontak te maak en te
s hoe die nuwe verkeers-
ligte hul lewens vergemak-
lik. As daar aanpassings
gedoen moet word, sal ons
dit doen op aanbeveling
van die padgebruikers, s
Fourie.
Hy het n beroep op in-
woners gedoen om ver-
keersrels te gehoorsaam.
Ons probeer hard om
die infrastruktuur op stan-
daard te kry, maar as men-
se nie verkeersrels ge-
hoorsaamnie, dan is al ons
werk tevergeefs. n Klein
gebaar van bedagsaam-
heidopdiepadkan nonge-
luk verhoed, s Fourie.
Danny Bolton, voorsit-
ter van Richwood se belas-
tingbetalersvereniging,
het die nuwe verkeersligte verwelkom.
Dit is hoog tyd dat dit gebeur. Vir n lang
tyd het die verkeer uit Durbanville en van
die N7 se kant af gesorg vir groot verkeers-
knope en noodlottige ongelukke. Met nuwe
ontwikkelings wat in die gebied plaasvind,
is dit ook hoog tyd om gesonde verkeers-
vloei te bewerkstellig, s Bolton.
Hy s hy hoop net van harte die verkeers-
ligte word saam met di van Richwood ge-
sinchroniseer. In Richwood sukkel ons
omdat die verkeersligte nie ingestel is om
die verkeer optimaal te laat vloei nie. Ge-
stel die nuwe ligte werk ook nie lekker nie,
kan die probleem net vererger wat aan-
vanklik aangespreek is, redeneer Bolton.
Toemotoriste sien die verkeersligteword

met duime indie lug gewys.Eenmotorishet

Residents are more likely to experience
snake encounters due to spring-time, warns
Shaun MacLeod, co-ordinator of the Snake
Rescue volunteer team in the Cape Peninsu-
la.
Every spring snakes comeout of hiberna-
tion on the hunt for a much needed spring
meal. Snakes arevery important to ournatu-
ral environment as they control the vermin
rodents that destroy crops and carry numer-
ous diseases, says MacLeod, who is also a
director of Reptile Educational Awareness
Consultants (REAC).
Snakes and various other reptiles form
part of the very important balance in our
ecosystem. A simple equation the more
snakes we kill, the more rodents and pests
there will be.
We have encroached into their natural
habitat through habitat degradation, frag-
mentation and urban expansion.
Ponds, heaps of building rubble and rock-
eries in and around gardens and homes cre-
ate micro environments, which will inevita-
bly attract snakes, MacLeod warns.
He reminds residents that snakes are at-
tracted to neglected areas where there is not
muchdisturbance, as snakeshate confronta-
tion.
There is no real way of keeping snakes
off your property, but if you keep your grass
cut short, trees well trimmed and clean up
all rubble, just to mention a few, then there
is less likelihood for snakes to reside onyour
property. In short keep your garden tidy,
he says.
Leave snakes alone and itwill leave you
alone.Most bites occurwhen people attempt
to kill snakes, he says.
V If a snake is encountered, contact MacLeod on
082 532 5033 for advice or for emergencies.

T
he City of Cape Towns
social development and
early childhood develop-
ment directorate took its Give
Responsibly campaign to the
streets last Friday.
Councillors and officials
from the directorate were sta-
tioned at 17 intersections in
Durbanville, Bellville, Good-
wood, Kuils River, Parow,
Athlone, Mitchells Plain, Ot-
tery, Diep River, Grassy Park,
Somerset West, Strand, Gor-
dons Bay, Wynberg, Lans-
downe, Table View and the
Cape Town CBD, armed with
posters highlighting the im-
portance of not giving hand-
outs to street people.
Some of the slogans used to
drive the message home in-
cluded: Hand-outs are not
generous, they are harmful;
By giving hand-outs, you are
perpetuating a cycle of pover-
ty; Your money is support-
ing a drug dealer; Change is
about more than a few coins;
and Begging handicaps my future.
We opted for this activation to create
awareness about the fact that street corner
hand-outs are doing little else other than
perpetuating the cycle of dependence and
keeping people on the streets, said Su-
zette Little, the Citys mayco member for
social development and early childhood
development.
The public has a shared responsibility
for thewell-being of street people.Wemust
understand that there is a very good
chance that the R2 or R5 handed over at
the intersection is feeding a habit instead
of the individual.
So lets change tack and move away
from the instant gratification that amone-
tary donation provides. My appeal to the
public is to find out where their nearest
shelter or organisation working with
street people is, and liaisewith themabout
how to make a real difference, whether it
be donating clothes or other goods, or even
volunteering, Little said.
The City introduced its Give Responsi-
bly campaign in 2010, aimed at encourag-
ing the public to support the homeless by
making donations to registered organisa-
tions instead of individuals,
thus breaking the cycle of de-
pendence that keeps them on
the street.
In addition, the City has
formulated a street people
policy and implemented a
number of interventions as
part of its street people pro-
gramme. The budget for this
programme has grown from
R4,5 million in 2013/14, to
R7,8 million in 2014/15, to
R9,7 million in 2015/16 an
increase of more than 100%.
The City has made great
strides in its efforts to tackle
homelessness. Our field
workers engage with street
people on a daily basis, offer-
ing them access to a range of
services including returning
home where possible.
On the other hand, we
have structures set up within
communities to prevent oth-
ers from migrating to the
streets. However, weve seen
that many street people
refuse our offers of assistance and Im not
surprised.
Why leave the streets when do-gooders
dishout donations for very little in return?
If we are ever going to make a real dent
in reducing the number of people living on
our streets and offer them a better life, we
need to move away from the culture of in-
discriminate giving.Giveahanduprather
than a hand-out, Little said.
V The City encourages members of the public to
contact its toll-free number on 0800 872 201 for
more information on how they can give responsi-
bly.
Councillors Phindile Maxiti (background), chairperson of the Citys
homeless agency committee, and Philisa Marman participated in a Give
Responsibly awareness drive in Cape Town last Friday.
The Friends of Blaauwberg
Conservation Area (BCA) will
host its annual Heritage Day
Talk and Walk on Thursday.
In the lead up to the 210 year
anniversary of The Battle of
Blaauwberg in January 1806,
they have invited the public to
learnmore about local heritage.
The day will start with a pre-
sentation at Eerste Steen Re-
sort, north Big Bay, Blouberg-
strand, at 09:45 for 10:00 and a
visit to Blaauwberg Hill, Blaa-
uwberg Nature Reserve.
Ian van Oordt will give a pre-
sentation on his quest of many
years to answer this question of
the location of the Battlefield on
8 January 1806. His research
has taken him on a world-
wide archive journey and lead
to the University of Cape Town
archaeological department
partnership with BCA.
This will be followed by a ca-
sual walk or drive up Blaauw-
berg Hill to enjoy spectacular
views of Table Mountain and
Robben Island and an overview
of the whole area involved in
the Battle of Blaauwberg.
After the presentation the
group will drive in convoy to
theMorningstar access to drive
or walk up Blaauwberg Hill for
a picnic lunch at the top.
In the spirit of the alternative
name for 24 September Na-
tional Braai Day a Weber Ket-
tle Braai will be set for a simple
braai of what you bring.
Bring hiking shoes, hats, sun
protection, cameras and re-
freshments. The event is free
for Friends of BCA members.
Cost is R30 for non-members.
Pets are not allowed.

ape Town schools are almost full and
the Western Cape Education Depart-
ment urges parents to enrol children
as soon as possible.
To date, schools in the Western Cape
have processed 128 545 applications for
placement for the 2016 school year. So far,
118 429 learners have been placed, said ed-
ucation minister Debbie Schfer in a state-
ment to the media last week.
Parents were encouraged to apply to
schools by 30 June, and those who now still
need spaces at schools need to urgently ap-
proach their nearest schools or the closest
district office to find out which schools still
have spaces available, she said.
We cannot guarantee places in schools
of choice, but will do our utmost to place
children appropriately. It is crucial that
parents who have failed to enrol their child
for the 2016 school year to do so urgently
and before the end of the third term to en-
sure they secure a place for their child.
Schfer says there are currently 3 470
learners who have been accepted at more
than one school.
Some 2 257 of these learners are Grade
8 learners who have not confirmed if they
are taking up their places, she says.
Moreover, we expect that learners will
continue to migrate to the Western Cape
from other provinces in search of a better
education and access to opportunities, she
says.
We have to prioritise according to the
greatest need across the whole province,
and available budget. Our current budget
is under considerable pressure.
Schools almost full
GK pays out R500: Two Table View High School pupils competed in the KFM GK Quiz.
The KFM team came to the school and the quiz was done live on air. The girls had to
answer as many general knowledge questions correctly as possible in 60 seconds. Danielle
van Eden went first and got 12 points and then Demi de Villiers (pictured) went next and
got 13 points. She was crowned the winner and received R500 cash.

When youve discovered that
your vehicle has been broken
into, please remember the
following information:
In order for the fingerprint
technician to obtain finger-
prints from the vehicle it is
important to not disturb the
area on the vehicle where the
vehicle was broken into.
Do not wash the vehicle or
repair the window prior to
fingerprints taken.
The disturbance of the area
where a possible fingerprint
could be obtained from might
have a negative impact on
linking the fingerprint to a
person whose fingerprints are
registered as that belonging to
a previous suspect linked to
other cases.
In order to avoid your
vehicle from being broken into,
follow this simple rule: Do not
leave any valuables in your
vehicle.

Car broken into?
Dont touch!
One must recognise the role
and the value added by civil
society organisations to bring
about change in our communi-
ties.
I would like to highlight that
the role of women cannot be
underestimated or undervalued
in civil society. The value
added by women, especially
women in leadership in our
society, is vital to any commu-
nity in addressing social
challenges.
I think that in many organi-
sations, its women who are
instrumental in changing
organisations that are strug-
gling to achieve its develop-
ment objectives.
I have seen over the years in
our communities, especially
the Cape Flats, that it is the
women who attend community
Role ofwomen cant
be undervalued
meetings and its women who
attend school meetings these
days.
Believe it or not, but it is
the women who are leading
change and in reality its the
women who lead the fight
against crime.
Look at the number of
women in our neighbourhood
watches, our CPF police
structures serving the commu-
nity, even our churches and
faith groups.
Its women leading for
change, and one wonders what
happened to the men.
I wrote to some women in
our community who are
already in leadership roles at
their various community
organisations, appealing and
urging and asking them to
consider playing an active role
in sport development.
Women support the men,
their sons and even their
daughters in all sport.
Women are out making food
for the youth, in meetings they
are there recording minutes or
fulfilling an administrative
function serving the sport,
serving the churches, serving
the community, leading the way
for change.
The active participation of
women in sport is changing
and needs to change in our
communities at all levels as
community organisations need
a womens perspective in
meetings and in decision-mak-
ing.
I dont have to remind the
sports leaders that the current
role of women in politics, and
in other sports where their
experience adds value and their
presence changes the land-
scapes even in our current
and young democracy.
Whether we like it or not
women are making a vast
difference on the political
scene, so much so theres a call
for the President of South
Africa to be a woman.
Women are making their
voices heard on all fronts
adding value to a better society;
a better South Africa.

I would like to inform home
owners who are selling their
property to be very careful
regarding Beetle, Electrical and
Plumbing Certificates of
Clearance.
I recently had a company
check my home. This company
offers all three services but
after their inspection I was
shocked to see the amount of
repairs needed, in fact there
were things wrong which were
not wrong.
So please, scrutinise the
repair list and get a second
opinion. It may be more
expensive, but get in a separate
plumber, electrician, etc.
I was fortunate, I never got
caught and found a good honest
plumber and electrician.

LEWENSKIEKIE
Taxi tensions
come as no
surprise
Imagine this. You are driving along
Blaauwberg Road when you hear a loud
bang. Your car is damaged, you are late
for work and the taxi driver who collided
into your vehicle has no licence, no
permit and no insurance.
A scenario, which would have any
motorist seething. And while the taxi
driver gets a R500 fine, you have to deal
with insurance claims, vehicle repairs
and the associated trauma.
The area around Blaauwberg Road has
become synonymous with near misses,
illegal ranks and taxi drivers who drive
in oncoming lanes to avoid congestion.
All of the above results in one thing:
frustration.
Recently a local business owner took
matters in his own hands and started
boxing-in taxis ranking on his property.
His actions were lauded by the communi-
ty and after months of frustration, his
actions come as no surprise.
Amid the furore are underlying com-
plex municipal issues including taxi
recapitalisation, the institution of the
MyCiTi bus service and illegal operators.
And while it will take time to sort
these out, the current situation in the
greater Table View area is reaching fever
pitch. The simple solution is enforcement,
but when resources are scarce and
excuses plentiful, anger will continue to
mount.
A strategic and methodical approach is
needed but truth be told, people will only
continue to break the law as long as they
are allowed to do so.

mekaar vandat hy n klein seun-
tjie is en die een vleuel vanhierdie
Oostersee-man se huis, waar hy 42 jaar
lank woon, is nou al n museum.
Billy s toe sy vrou nog gelewe het,
was daar rels oor hoeveel van die huis
aan die gedenkwaardighede afgestaan
kan word, maar die afgelope paar jaar
woon Billy en sy hondjie, Baba, alleen
hier en is Billy se heiligdom besig om
vinnig uit te brei.
Ek het honderde pette teen die mure
waarvan nie twee dieselfde is nie. Hon-
derde dasse, boeke en DVDs, vertel hy
trots. Hy het rakke vol getekende truie
en rugbyballe, elke moontlike nuusbe-
rig oor Duane Vermeulen (sy gunste-
ling-speler) enEbenEtsebeth se sokkies
is uitgestal langs Billy se eie ou stewels
waarmee hy in 1973 haker vir Bellville
gespeel het.
Helde
Fotos van hom saam met sy helde
hang deur die huis en die plafon van sy
braai- en eetkamer is uitgevoer met tal-
le vlae.
Dis egter n speelgoed-springbokkie
wat sy gunsteling-besitting is. Di, ook
genaamd Baba, het n geboortesertifi-
kaat en is gechip vir as hy dalk sou weg-
raak en hy gaan saam met my na elke
wedstryd, s Billy. Baba was n ge-
skenk van sy vrou.
Billy het n span ondersteuners wat
hom help om sy versameling uit te brei.
Nadat hy vir 30 jaar in die onderwys
was, het hy in 1996 n tuindienste-onder-
neming begin en sedertdien het sy kli-
ente, familie en vriende sy versameling
met vele skatte aangevul.
My skoonseun se pa bly in Nieu-See-
land en hy het vir my twee regte silwer-
varingblare gestuur. Ek het n spring-
bok-velletjie by n bergie hier onder in
die straat geruil vir n pakkie sigaret-
te.
Vriendin
Op die koop toe het Billy nou n spesi-
ale vriendin wat by n hospies-winkel
werk, waar daar elke nou en dan n bok-
juweel kop uitsteek. Dan bewerkstellig

waar hy soveel as moontlik van die W-
reldbeker-toernooi gaan kyk.

eindronde van die toernooi speel,

Not just an entertainer
LOUISA STEYL
@lounotes
Comedy magician Marcel Ou-
dejans is not just an entertain-
er. He sees himself as more of
a fun facilitator.
The Pinelands resident, who
grew up in the northern sub-
urbs, will be doing a rare pub-
lic show inCapeTownwhenhe
presents Sleight of Mouth 2:
Now talk your way out of this!
as part of the Cape Town
Fringe Festival from Thurs-
day.
The show is a sequel to
Sleight of Mouth The art of
talking your way out of any-
thing, which he performed at
last years Fringe Festival.
The new show features new
magic, delivered in Marcels
trademark witty stand-up
style. Theres also more story-
telling with anecdotes about
his travels and experiences as
a magician.
Performing magic for people
who arent expecting it usually
produces interesting results.
On one occasion, for example,
he stopped for lunchonhisway
to a showanddecided tobright-
en someones day with a magic
trick. The woman freaked out
because she had no one around to corrobo-
rate that it had actually happened.
One could almost say Marcels comedy
career started with people who werent ex-
pecting it. When other children were wait-
ing tables,Marcel,whohad already started
doing shows at the Bellville Library over
school holidays, was performing in restau-
rants for tips.
Today, Marcel is one of the countrys
leading performers. In 2008 he was recog-
nised as one of Africas leading magicians
at the Vismayan International Magic Con-
vention held in India.
Most of his work is for corporate events,
where he acts as emcee or more recently,
teaches people about the importance of
play in the workplace or as he puts it to
take play seriously.
He believes learning to have fun or em-
bracing cultural arts, gives people a
means to express themselves, some-
thing which is essential to under-
standingotherpeople andhavingem-
pathy.
He works with businesses to help
them create a wow in customer ser-
vice, usingmagic to prove his point.
Customer service is something
Marcel takes seriously and its im-
portant to him that his audiences feel
like they are getting a genuine, sin-
cere performance.
This is where his improvisation
skills come in handy; giving him the
ability to adapt to his audience and
make his shows more interactive.
Although theres a light narrative
running through Sleight of Mouth 2:
Now talk yourway out of this!,Marcel
doesnt like the idea of a magic show
thats too scripted. You want to
make the audience feel like this is
happening for the first time.
His performance at the Fringe Fes-
tival is an opportunity to see another
side of his extensive repertoire and
escape reality for an hour.
Marcel says the festival itself is a
chance to see a wide variety of pro-
ductions, from theatre pieces to mag-
ic, in one place and urges Capetoni-
ans to buy tickets early and support
the local performers on stage this
year.
V Sleight of Mouth 2: Now talk your way out
of this! will be on stage at Cape Town City
Hall Theatre 3 at 19:30 on Thursday 24, Saturday

D
ie jong manne van die rockgroep Zen-

siekliefhebbers te bekoor.
WianBrand (bas), Lafras Uys (tromme) en
Erick Zulch (kitaar en sanger) s hul skool-
maats by die Horskool Stellenberg is mal
oor hul musiek.
Die graad 10-leerlinge het sowat n jaar ge-
lede die groep gevorm toe Erick, wat reeds
n musikant was, sy twee beste vriende oor-
tuig het om saam met hom musiek te begin
maak.
Sedertdien het hulle reeds oor die hele
Wes-Kaap heen gespeel. Die f
