Slindokuhle MchunuTHAT old scam banknotes on the pavement

has now hit Greytown. Last week, a lady whohad just withdrawn R10 000 from her ABSA account, was walking up Pine Street.

She was approached by a man who startedto talk to her, then suddenly pointed at whathe said was a roll of bank notes on the pavement.

The man said she must follow him so thatthey could divide the money between them.

They walked off and as they approached theMall construction site, a grey vehicle stoppedwith two men in it who identified themselvesas “Criminal Intelligence.” The couple were questioned about the whereabouts of money reported missing she said she had just witnessed herfriend finding the money. The socalled “CriminalIntelligence” pair told the woman to accompanythem to the police station as a witness that themoney had not been stolen.

She got into the car which drove off at speedand eventually stopped way outside Greytown.

The scammers gave her a white envelope andtold her to put all her money into it she didso and they drove off with her R10 000 and bankcard. Anyone who has experienced a similar incident, or who can identify the two scammers one man was wearing a sweater with yellowstripes, light in complexion and was slender andthe other suspect was wearing a demin jacketdark in complexion is asked to contact the Greytown Police. (The woman has requested not tobe identified).

REACH For A Dream will be activating the annual Reach ForYour Slippers campaign, ‘Slipper Day’, on Friday, 1 August.

The campaign calls for all to “reach for their slippers”, andto wear them towork or school to help a child with a life-threat-ening illness achieve their dream.

Purchase a ‘Slipper Sticker’ for only R10 at any Wimpy outletcountrywide from now to 1 August.

And if you visit a Wimpy on 1 August wearing your slippersand your sticker (or to buy your sticker), you will receive a freeregular coffee.

Reach For A Dream is a non-profit organisation, therefore allfunds and proceeds raised through this campaign will help thefoundation put a smile on the faces of many seriously ill SouthAfrican children. Bronwyn Feldwick-Davis from Reach ForA Dream says: “For 25 years, Reach For A Dream has dedicateditself to making dreams come true. Take Sam Pretorius for in-stance,whoat theageof11yearsoldwasdiagnosedwith leukae-mia. Sam's dream was to go to Disneyworld and through thefoundation, he was able to realise his wish.”

You will remember Pretorius from the Reach For A Dream

RICHARD Alcock, wellknown conservationist,environmentalist and en-tomologist of the Mhlope-ni ranch managementteam, has been amemberof the Ezemvelo HonoraryOfficer group for35years.

Ezemvelo KZN Wildliferecognised this achieve-ment by awarding himwith Honorary Life Mem-bership of the HonoraryOfficer Corps.

Richard joined the or-ganisation when it wasstill a part of the NatalParksBoard, andwhenhewas living and working inDurban.

There, he was involvedwith coastal conservationmatters, and remainedwith Honorary Officerswhen he and his familymoved to Mhlopeni in1984.

He is still actively in-volved with the HonoraryOfficer Group, where hisknowledge and experi-ence are valued by all themembers.

Richard says that hewould probably not havemade it this farwere it notfor the help and supportthat his wife, Joy, has al-ways given him, and saidthat he would like this tobe recognised.

Ezemvelo Honorary officer

DEAR madam editor,I write in reply to Mr Muntonezwi Khany

ile's vitriol loaded letter published in The Witness on July 18. Methinks you have lost theplot, Sir.

Drive around our town with your eyes openand you will notice that it is looking the bestit has in many a year, take note of a letterpublished by a visitor in The Gazette a fewweeks ago.

Yes, we do have problems in Greytown,but not to do with upkeep or moving ahead.We have newly tarred streets, those thathave not been tarred are having potholes etc.repaired.

The lawns have been cut properly for atleast three to four years now. The guttersare weeded and winter leaves are beingswept up.

As for your comments regarding the former mayor, we have Solomon Village where,were it not for the exmayor's interventionin the early stages, was heading for disaster.

Through him, and him alone, we got thestreets tarred, we are getting an FET College,I could go on and on.

Your concerns should be directed at uMzinyathi District Municipality who are responsible, together with their consultants, projectengineers and “plumbing employees”, for thehideous mismanagement of all water relatedprojects in this town and Kranskop, eMatimatolo, Keats Drift and others.

Look around and you will see the only ma

jor messes in town are the aftermath of the“plumbing team” not cleaning up after repairing a leak or fitting a valve etc. In closingMr Khanyile, I have to say that your letterhas an aura of politicking!

Brian WalkerGreytown

COMMENTLetter referred to by Mr Walker which appeared in last Saturday's Witness is as follows:

“I write to voice anger at Umvoti Municipalofficials who live the high life when Greytown’s municipal infrastructure is rotten andthe town is dirty and roads littered with potholes.

The town has become unattractive as aresult of negligence and corruption takingplace.

Former mayor Philani Mavundla promisedto revitalize the town's infrastructure andboost its economy, but that was not to be.

How is a dirty town supposed to attractinvestment when it so filthy that you wonderif the municipal officials exist?”EDITOR'S NOTE:

Dear Mr Khanyile! If you have the courage, and if you live in Greytown, please dome a favour and call at the Greytown Gazetteoffices so that I can take you on a tour ofthe clean streets of Greytown, the relativelyfew potholes, the building progress of Mavundla Mall which will provide much neededjobs etc.

Oh dear, Mr Khanyile

IT has become a popu-lar current trend to re-lease Chinese lanternsinto thenight skyat spe-cial events, such asweddings etc.

However during theUmvoti fire season,which ends on 31 Octo-ber, this is an extremelydangerous activitywhich could trigger offa series of fires.

The lanterns drift up-wards and slowlyacross the skyline untiltheir fuel is depleted,and the lanterns thendriftdown, landingany-where.

In Umvoti, the lan-terns could land on a

large dry grass area orin aplanation, resultingin potentially danger-ous wildfires.

Umvoti Fire Protec-tion Association pointsout the considerabledanger of this activityduring fire season andstate it will not be per-mitted during this time.

The UFPA expressesits appreciation to itsmembersand landown-ers for their future co-operation and under-standing in regard tothis.

Twirly whirly mystery

BRIGHTENING upthedrabnessofwin-ter, many a passer-by enjoyed the vi-brant display of Al-oes in ErskineStreet outside thehome ofMr andMrsDede.

But whilst theywere away lastweekend, some ir-responsible anti-so-cial vandals at-tacked, hacked anddestroyed this mag-nificent display.

If anyone notesthat a neighbour orsomeone in theirstreet has suddenlyacquired a flash ofcolour through theplanting of instantAloes, please con-tact the GreytownGazette or ElmarieDede at the Grey-town Country Club.

Aloe vandals destroy beauty

CHRISTEL Brooks, in Grade 11 at ourschool, was selected to travel to Ireland inJuly.

She writes: During the July holidays, Irepresented the KKH Pony Club in Ireland.Our group of nine riders attended a week-long camp, riding two-hour sessions twicea day. Ending off the camp was a show, inwhich I placed first in my 1m derby class,second in 1m showjumping, and sixth indressage. After the camp, we went to ourvarious host families for four days, withwhom we toured Dublin and throughoutIreland. After the stay with our host fami-lies, we took part in an inter-branch tet-rathlon.On the firstday,weshot, swamandran, and on the second day we rode cross-country.

The South African team did well, andweall enjoyed competing in Ireland. It was awonderful experience; I learnt a lot and Iammost grateful that I was able to be partof such an amazing team, representing ourcountry abroad, chasing leprechauns and

finding gold.” We are proud of Christél andher achievements.

Thecelebrations thatbeganhere inAprilcontinued in Reutlingen, Germany, as theexchange learners planted a friendshiptree in front of the Wittum Hall at Bildung-szentrum - Nord - a twin of the one plantedhere in Hermannsburg to mark the tenthanniversary of the exchange between ourtwo schools.

In her address the Principal, Mrs Kern-Veits, acknowledged the warm spirit offriendship that characterises the exchangeprogramme, while a brass band and choirrounded off the ceremony.

Since then, our Grade 10s have beenbusy, doing a lot of walking as they exploreparts of Germany they never suspected ex-isted.

They have visited a textilemanufacturerand spent time playing with mechatronicsat the university, in addition to seeing thecountryside. We look forward to hearingmore about their adventures.

Hermannsburg Happenings

Tying friendship ribbons around thefriendship tree planted in Reutlingen aspart of the celebration of a decade ofexchanges.

Noone can work out how this stop street support became a swizzle stick, except of coursethe irresponsible vandals who carried out this stupid action on the corner of York and BellStreets. Be interesting to check legally, when they are identified, whether they could beprosecuted if an accident happens at this spot

WINDOW ON WEMBLEY

THIS year's tournament was once againhosted by the Richmond Club and overall,Mascor Umvoti had great results, apartfrom the A team who could not emulatelast year's success and were relegated toseventh in the A Division.

One could be forgiven for wonderinghow differently it would have played outhad the draw not been changed at the lastminute, and they were left to contest theB Division. The whole team did finishstronglyhoweverby trouncingNyathiB31- 13 in their last game on Sunday. The Ateam was made up of Caroline Minnaar,Mark Scott, Colin Storey, Damien O'Sulli-van, Cavan O'Sullivan and Patrick O'Sulli-van.

The Umvoti Mascor B team played ex-ceptional polocrosse all weekend totrounce all opponents by handsome mar-gins, thereby ensuring that they werecrowned B Division champions. The teamwas JacquieMinnaar,AndrewGrant ,Van-essa Williams, Alice Gilmore, Kira-LeeGrant and Derek Storey.

Ruth O'Sullivan and Camryn combinedwith four players from NW Province andplayed sowell, they beat the higher handi-capped teamfromWalkerville toclinch theC Division in fine style.

THE Consumer Protection Acthas given South African con-sumers many rights in takingaction against suppliers overpoor services or defectivegoods.

But when is it worth actuallypursuing a complaint and is itbetter than going to court?

Consumer Goods and Servic-es Ombudsman, Advocate Nev-ille Melville explains:

“Complaints such as a newcell phone which just stopsworking, goods paid for and notdelivered etc - previously youhad to go to a court of law to getjustice,but theConsumerGoodsand Services Ombud (CGSO)nowprovides a forum to resolvecomplaints quickly and afford-ably.

“Dissatisfied customers canapproach the CGSO, which willinvestigate and try to mediate asolution between all the partiesinvolved. If no agreement canbe reached, a formal mediationtakes place, where the partiesare invited to put forward theircases and amediator tries to fa-cilitate a mutually acceptablesettlement.”

He said that the size of finan-cial losses is not the only decid-ing factor that drives people to

take a complaint further.Thebenefitsof seekingasolu-

tion through an ombudsmanversus through the courts, isthat consumers are likely to getfaster resolution. The averageage of cases closed by the CGSOare 16 days, while the averageage of open cases are 74 days.

He says not all cases submit-ted to the CGSO involve mone-tary compensation - some com-plainants simply want whattheyseeas fair - suchasanapol-ogy or the system to be im-proved.

“The type of evidence youwould need to build your case

would include a till slip or proofof purchase, a high definitionphoto of the alleged defect orcopy of the brochure that thespecial was advertised in, forexample,” he said.

Expert witnesses may becalled in if necessary and in-spectors may be appointed.

“In the past, we have out-sourced the inspection ofcracked television screens todeterminewhether it was a fac-tory fault or the result of anover-enthusiastic Wii player!"said Melville.

The findings of the CGSO arenot binding on either party, butif the issue is not resolved by theombudsman, parties are in-formed of their right to ap-proach the National ConsumerCommission. The vast majorityof complaints, however, are re-solved at the Ombud level.

“While we cannot awarddamages, we can persuade asupplier todoso,”addsMelville.

Concludes Melville: "Media-tion is free and less intimidatingthan a court of law; you do notrequire legal representation;and you're far more likely tocome out with a win-win solu-tion.”

Eid Mubarak

Eid is observedbyMuslims to celebrate theconclusionof themonthof fastingofRama-dan.

“Eid ul fitr” literally means the breakingof the fast and like theotherMuslimevents,symbolizes faith.

Eid takes place at the sighting of the newmoon - this is expected to be Monday, 28July or the next day.

On Eid, a congregational prayer is of-fered at mosques, and then the Muslimcommunity exchanges good wishes. Theyalso donate food and clothing to the pooronthisauspiciousoccasion.Delicious foodsare part of the celebration and houses aresocially decorated.

Ramadan, the month of fasting, is notjust restraining from food from sunrise tosunset, but to abstain from all kinds of evil

and unlawful practices in Islam.There is no eating, drinking from dawn

to dusk. Many believe that the fasting dur-ingRamadanrenews their senseof respon-sibility. Eid brings together people in har-mony and gratitude.EID MUBARAK

SATURDAY’S race from Heidelburgproved to once again be a good one forthe Naicker family, with them havingthe only yearling home on the day andseven of their team of ten in the clock.

Attie Joubert on the other handfailed to clock a pigeon on the day such are the ups and downs of pigeonracing. The Old Grizle was once againbeaten by his protégé, M Lofts.

Maybe one day the worm will turn,but by the way the Old Grizzle's luckis running, the worm will be snapped

up by a passing sparrow!Liberated at 9.30am, the distance of
