GREYTONIANS have won-dered since last year whatmystery was behind the

iron cladding which untidily sur-rounds the town offices.

A photographer just happenedtobe thereamonthor soagowhenthe workers let themselves inthrough the once access gate, andmanaged to sneak this shot beforethegatewasverypromptly closed.

Despite several request to mu-nicipal officials, no informationhas come forward. According tolimited information being madeavailable, a statue connectedwithBhambatha is being erected, fi-nanced by the Department of Artsand Culture to the tune of over R1million. The Greytown Gazettewasalso informedthatcouncilhadjust been asked to approve the useof a piece of land in front of thetown offices with no financial im-plications.

However, it is reported thatthere was an item on a recentCouncil agenda requesting thesum of R500 000 from Council forthis project.

This has not yet been discussedbut according to an IFP spokes-man, will not be supported.

KUNENGOMA eyayivame ukudla-lwanguMnuzWelcome‘Bhodloza’NzimandeemsakazweniwesiZuluuKhozi FM, enezinhlamvu ezithi:“Umbulalelani omunye umuntungoba ngelinye ilanga uzomdin-ga?”

Lo mbuzo awudingi ukutolikwangoba usobala njengezinqe zese-lesele. Lesi silomo sakoMphephet-he sasidume ngamancoko anong-we ngobukhulu ubuhlakanioKhozini FMuma sisakaza. Sashi-ya emsakazweni sesingumphathisangena emabhizinisini. Sasi-vame ukuyidlala le ngoma nge-sikhathi kusabhidlange udlamekulesi sifundazwe iKwaZulu-Na-tal.

Nanamhlanje ngisamkhumbulakahle uBhodloza uma esekhuzaudlame ethi: “Hhayi bo bafanabakithi nabulalana kangakakwenzenjani?Yini leengakaeniy-ibangayo engeke ilungiswe ngom-lomo? Wena nsizwa ophethe

isikhali njengoba ngikhulumanje,uyakhohlwa yini ukuthi lo muntuolindele ukumbulala udalwenguNkulunkulu njengawe? Uzok-wenzenjanikusasaumausubhek-ene nesimo lapho uzodinga khonausizo lwalomuntu ocuthele uku-mjuqa?” kubuza lesi silomo sa-koMphephethe.

Yini eyenza ngikhulume kanjengoBhodloza? Isizathu ukuthi im-pilo yakhe ibenomthelelaomuhle,owakhayo emphakathini. Angi-vumelani kahle hle nalaba bantuabavameukuthi uBhodlozawaza-khela udumo ngomculo ka-masikandi emsakazweni. UBhod-loza ubenguthisha ngaphambikokusebenza emsakazweni. Aba-befunda naye KwaDlangezwaHigh School, bathi wayevele eyisi-lomo kwasesikoleni, kanti nange-sikhathiesefundisawayengaconsiphansi kubafundi nakozakwabo.

Indaba kaBhodloza ibuyeemqondweni ngilalele intshu-

mayelo kaMfu Armstrong Makh-anyawase-United CongregationalChurch ngePhasika. Uthe wonkeumuntu kufanele azi ukuthi indle-la aziphatha ngayo inomthelelakwabanye, kanti kunjalonje,nendlela abanye abantuabaziphatha ngayo, inomthelelaempilweni yakhe.

“Ngakhoke,” kuqhuba uMfuMakhanya, “kufanele sonke si-qikelele ukuthi siziphatha kahleukuze kusizakale nabanye.Kukhona abaphila ngendlelaelimaza abanye, kube khona nal-abo abaphila ngendlela ebap-hilisayoabanye.Vele-ke impilo in-jalo, inezimo ezimbi nezinhle.Futhingekesiziqede izimoezimbi.Ziyohlale zikhona ziyizinselelo.Okubalulekile ukuthi sibe nobu-chule nobuhlakani bokubhekananazo sizinqobe.”

Uthe neNkosi uJesu akazibale-kelanga izinselelo, wabhekananazo ngqo, wazinqoba esizwa

nguNkulunkulu. Uthe akulonaiphutha ukuthi empilweni kubekhona izimo ezinhle nezimbi.

“Uma zonke izinto zihambakahle empilweni yakho,” kuqhubayena, “ubokwazi ukuthi kukhonaokungalungile. Kanjalo futhi umakonke kungahambi kahle, kusukekukhona okungalungile. Abanezi-motobayazi ukuthi i-battery lidin-ga u ‘positive no-negative’ ukuzelibenamandla, likwaziukuhambi-sa imoto.”

Uthe kuzokhumbuleka ukuthikwasekuqaleni impilo yoniwangumuntu oyedwa ensimini yase-Eden, kodwa yabuye yalungiswangumuntu oyedwa, iNkosi uJesu.Yingakho ethi impilo yomuntuoyedwa inomthelela kwabanyeabaningi. Ulinganise ngabantuokubhalwe ngabo eBhayibhelininjengo-Abraham athe ukulalelakwakhe uNkulunkulu kwamenzawabusiswa kwaze kwabusiswanezingane zakhe nesizukulwane.

Uqhubeke walinganisa nango-Sawulu owayewuhlupho ebulalaamakholwa kodwa ngokugcinaelalele iZwi likaJesu ngesikhathieshaywa ngumbani, laphendulwaigama lakhe waba nguPawuluwase enza okuhle emphakathiniokwaphendula izimpilo zabanin-gi.

SOME interesting facts about pansies andviolas.

As the idiom ‘shrinking violet’ suggests,violas are the smaller of the two, althoughit’s the Victorian meaning for viola whichrefers to “modesty” which gives a littlemore context to the idiom’s origin.

Pansy, on the other hand, means ‘tothink’.

Literature suggests this is from Victori-an references but also fromFrench origin.

The pansy flower has a striking likenessto ahuman face andhas a tendency to bowforward, in deep thought, in late summergiving it ample claim to its name, derivedfrom the French word pensée, meaning‘thought’.

From literature and arts to folklore andmythology,pansiesandviolashaveahisto-ry and story that could fill an entire book.Shakespeare used references to both pan-sies and violas in Hamlet and A Midsum-mer Night’s Dream, while the ancientGreeksusedviolas in lovepotions, thinkingit to be a symbol of love and fertility.

In the days of King Arthur, pansies wereused to tell fortunes for the Knights of theRound Table.

It is recordedthat theywould lookathowmany lines, and the orientation of, on thepetals to determine their fates. Four linessignified hope, seven indicated loyalty inlove, eight showed fickleness, and nineforewarned a changing of heart, whileeleven was sadly about disappointmentand an early grave. If the lines were thickandslanting left, lifewasdue tobe trouble-some while right slanting lines signifiedwealth and success until death.

Plant them in either a sunny or partiallyshaded area but keep in mind that violaswill perform better than pansies do withmore shade, so plan accordingly. Pansieswill withstand more severe cold than vio-las.

To get the best from your blooms, youshould deadhead them as and when youcan and remember that pansies are a littleclaustrophobic and may retaliate if youplant themtooclose toeachotherbydevel-oping diseases. Give thema good solidwa-tering once a week...water the surround-ing soil, avoiding their leaves. - Informa-tion supplied by the Bedding PlantGrowers Association.

Mr Aheer enjoys reminiscing about the many years he spentcoming to Hermannburg selling fruit and vegetables out of the back of this vehicle. At Schulfest, he took great pleasure in reconnecting with some of his ‘old’ customers, who used to buypeanuts wrapped in newspaper cones from him for a ‘tickey . The relationship between the Aheer family and Hermannsburg dates back to 1963, when the Aheer family first started serving thecommunity and ensuring that everybody had fresh fruit and vegetables on a weekly basis. In the photograph, three generations of the Aheer family pose with past pupils who were customers ofthe Aheer Fruit and Veg Mobile Shop, the chairman of the board of Hermannsburg School, members of the Schulfest committee and Hermannsburg’s head boy and head girl. The school wishesto thank DR Aheer and his family for the loyal support, spanning some 51 years.
