JOINING HANDS 24 JANUARIE 2018 WEB

Jeffreys bid
Jeffreysbaaiers en Humansdorpers het die afgelope Sondag opgetrek na die Dolphin Beach amfiteater in Jeffreysbaai
om hande te vat in gebed en te bid vir reën in ons droogtegeteisterde gebied. Verlede week was daar slegs
8% water oor in die Kouga Dam.
Kerkleiers ds Komatie van Niekerk van die NG Gemeente Kompleks, afgetrede pastoor Dave Webster van die Jeffrey’s
Bay Bible Church, Willem Taute van die Global Gemeenskap en Celeste Waite van die New Life Worship Centre in
Humansdorp het saamgestaan om die biddag te lei in gebed en die stormsterkte wind het niemand verhoed om hul tot die
Vader te verootmoedig nie.
Die helder kinderstemme van Carla Smith se gekombineerde koor van die skole Jeffreysbaai Laer, Stulting in Humansdorp,
Victory Christian School en Pharos, het lof aan ons Vader gebring.
God antwoord
Laatmiddag Sondag het die
donker wolke oor Jeffreysbaai
begin saampak, later het die
weerlig begin slaan, en teen
donker het die reën begin val!
Toe Chris Lamprecht Sondag op pad
was na sy plaas, Rus en Vrede in
die Baviaanskloof, het die water in
die kloof by die plaas Matjiesfontein
EN ander klowe so erg gevloei, dat
Chris vasgekeer was deur die water
en desnoods die aand op die plaas
Rietrivier van oom Boetie Terblanche
moes oornag!
Maandagoggend kon hy verder ry
deur die rivier na sy eie plaas en het
hierdie foto toe geneem!
Wat nog meer rede tot dankbaarheid
gee, is dat hierdie water die Kouga
Dam voed!
(Met saktyd van JOINING HANDS
Maandag, het dit nog nie ophou reën
nie! Ons dien ‘n GROOT en
almagtige God - aan HOM al die
eer!)

Heuningbostee-werkswinkel
Inligtingsessies vir heuningbosteeboere
word in die Uniondale- en Langkloof-omgewing
gehou vanaf 25 tot 29 Januarie.
Hierdie sessies word gereël deur die Departement
van Omgewing- en Ontwikkelingsbeplanning
van die Wes-Kaapse regering.
Welkom in die stad
Dominee Kol Lekteer het al die jare op die platteland gewoon. As hy met sy stasiewa gaan
huisbesoek doen, het hy ou Jonas saamgeneem om al die plaashekke oop te maak.
As hulle na so ‘n string huisbesoeke terugry dorp toe vra dominee Kol Lekteer: “En toe ou
Jonas – wat het ons?”
Ou Jonas kyk dan agter in die stasiewa en antwoord: “Die skaapboud hy ês, die pampoen
hy ês, die groenmielies hy ês, die lamoene hy ês, die biltong hy ês…”
Later besluit dominee Kol Lekteer daar is meer en ryker mense in die stad en hulle woon
nader aan mekaar sodat meer by so ‘n rondte huisbesoeke besoek kan word en hy aanvaar
‘n beroep na die stad. Ou Jonas gaan natuurlik saam, al is daar nie in die stad hekke om
oopgemaak te word nie.
Na die eerste dag se huisbesoeke ry dominee Kol Lekteer en ou Jonas terug pastorie toe.
Dominee Kol Lekteer: “En toe ou Jonas – wat het ons?”
Die inligtingsessies sal veral konsentreer op
die veldgids vir wilde heuningbos-oesting.
Vir nadere inligting rondom die werkswinkel,
of om die werkswinkel by te woon, kan u ‘n
e-pos stuur na honeybush2017@gmail.com.
Ou Jonas: “Die skaapboud hy ês nie, die pampoen hy ês nie, die groenmielies hy ês nie,
die lamoene hy ês nie, die biltong hy ês nie, die spaarwiel hy ês nie, die djek hy ês nie…”

How to find the right church!
• Should I go to church?
• Do Christians really need to belong to a local church?
• Do I need to go to church to get to heaven?
• Aren’t all churches the same?
• What is the difference between one church and another?
These are questions that people ask every day.
Although attending church is not what qualifies an person for entrance into heaven - it is not
only scriptural - but necessary for proper growth to every Christian - and therefore of great
importance that every Christian belong to a local church. There are a number of reasons for
this which can be found in detail in our Studies section and if you are not sure why a person
needs to belong to a local church then we recommend that you read some of the information
regarding this subject.
The church that you attend is a matter of great importance.
When a child is born, in most cases, he/she already has a home waiting with loving parents.
Think of the child’s chances for survival if this were not the case! New Christians also need
a good church that they can call “home” if they are to grow and thrive - and finding that right
place can be a daunting task. Here’s some guidelines to help you find the right church.
Visit our church directory
Pray and ask God to lead you to the right place.
Realize that He already has a good church picked out for you. Because we live in a world
where we’re accustomed to making lots of choices, it can be tempting to make our own
decision where to go instead of discovering God’s plan for our lives.
Be willing to go anywhere God leads you.
This is important especially if it doesn’t initially look like what you had in mind.
Once you are sure you’re in the right place, there’s no need to look further. Don’t fall into
the trap of “church-hopping” or you’ll end up confused and will miss some of what God has
for you.
Don’t make the mistake of looking for the “perfect” church.
As someone has said, “The only perfect church is the church with no people.” Even the
pastor, though gifted to lead and teach, is still human and he/she can make mistakes from
time to time.
God will lead you to a place that places a high degree of emphasis on the Word of God (the
Bible). If you don’t need a Bible in a particular church, you can be sure that that’s not the
church for you!
Een ding wat ek van Jeffreysbaaiers
kom leer waardeer het, is hul liefde vir
diere. Moet erken, ons was stomverbaas
toe ons ‘n aantal jare gelede uit
Gauteng sak en pak hier aangekom
het en oral op straat leibandlose honde
sien rondloop het - sielsgelukkig in hul
middagwandelinge. En om die een of
ander rede het dit nie ‘n enkele motorbestuurder
sodanig omgekrap dat ‘n
toeter eers geblaas is nie!
Dit was EERS vreemd! Geen padwoede
van ‘n dag oud nie - niemand
wat gil en vloek op iemand wat skielik
voor hom inry nie, niemand wat op die
toeter lê omdat iemand vergeet het om
sy flikkerlig aan te sit nie, geen geskel
as iemand te stadig ry nie - genugtig,
wat was hier aan die gang?
Ons stadservaring was heel
anders - buffer-teen-buffer verkeer van
vroegoggend af, het jy gewaag om ‘n
kilometer per uur te stadig te ry, is jy
GOED geskel! (Verbasend genoeg was
die Pretoria-verkeer een van die dinge
wat ons die meeste van die stad gemis
het!)
Dit was ‘n reuse aanpassing om te
besef dat feitlik niemand agter hul kyk
wanneer hul tru uit ‘n parkeerruimte nie!
So is my motor twee keer lelik “her-ontwerp”!
Maar die rustigheid van die dorp het
ons ongemerk kom beetkry - die ongelukkigheid
oor swak dienslewering het
gou plek gemaak vir “maak vriende met
winkeleienaars” en lekker geselsie wanneer
jy dorp toe gaan.
Maar om terug te kom tot die
Oos-Kapenaars se liefde vir diere - in
geen ander dorp (of stad) het ek al
soveel liefde en erbarming vir diere
ervaar nie.
Wanneer iemand afkom op ‘n verlore
dier, word plakkate by Spar en
Checkers opgeplak, mense skakel
mekaar wanneer hul ‘n verlore dier
opmerk, laai rondlopertjies op en neem
hul huis toe - gee hul kos en water en
versorg hul tot ‘n dankbare eienaar kom
aanklop om die wegloper te kom haal!
Kortom, dit is nie net oor diere en liefde
vir diere wat ek hier kom leer het nie,
maar veral om te kom stilstaan -
stilstaan by mense om liefde te gee
en ‘n geselsie aan te knoop, stilstaan
by diere om op te laai of te voer of ‘n
koppie te streel, stilstaan by die see om
dankie te sê en stilstaan in my tuin as
dit donker word om die mooi om my te
ervaar - nog nooit het ek sterre gesien
soos in Jeffreys nie!
Hier het ons die stad en sy jaag na
wind kom agterlaat want hier jaag die
wind jou!
Dis die jaag na niks, wat hier gekom
het tot die KRY IETS! Hier het ons kom
kalmte kry, vrede kry, vreugde kry -
nie net oor die trek van die stad na ‘n
kusdorpie toe nie, maar ons die mense
in die dorp, mense wat nog vir mekaar
glimlag, mense wat nog regtig omgee,
mense wat vir jou lief is! Dankie!
Solidariteit Helpende Hand skenk
skooltassies aan leerders
So het die nuwe skooljaar aangebreek en duisende graad eentjies is vir die
eerste keer groot skool toe! Solidariteit Helpende Hand het weer eens ingespring
en skooltassies aan kinders uitgedeel wat dit andersins nie sou
kon bekostig nie - net in die Oos-Kaap alleen is daar 520 tassies gepak en
aan kleingoed uitgedeel.
Op hierdie foto’s is die tassies en inhoud daarvan wat Laerskool Stulting
van die Helpende Hand Humansdorp-tak ontvang het!

Knap gedaan Jade!
Jade Bosman van Kruisfontein Primêre Skool in Humansdorp is pas verkies
vir die Oos-Kaap rugby-skolespan.
Hy is ook raakgesien deur ‘n talentwerwer van Florida Laerskool in
Johannesburg en deur hul uitgenooi om daar skool by te woon vanjaar.
Laerskool Florida betaal al sy onkostes!
Die Primêre Skool Kruisfontein is geweldig trots op Jade wat hard gewerk
het om uit te styg bo sy omstandighede en glo dat hy nog hoë hoogtes sal
bereik.
Die skool bedank ook Jade se O/13 rugbyafrigter, mnr Samuel Felix en die
stigter van die Kouga Rugby Akademie, mnr Bern Ruiters wat Jade afgerig
het en aangemoedig het om hierdie gefokusde seun by te staan.

LAND ROVER DISCOVERY 5: Mollig, maar Rats
Deur Dirk Gallowitz van Ultimate Drive
Onmiddellike byval was die reaksie toe Land Rover sy eerste generasie Discovery in
die laat jare tagtigs bekendgestel het. Skielik was daar ’n hardebaardveldryer
waarmee jy ook Sondag kerk toe kan ry sonder dat dit voel jy bestuur ’n plaaswerktuig.
Die luukser Range Rover se prys was vir meeste mense onhaalbaar en die
goedkoper Discovery was toe ’n goeie alternatief.
Toe die sigaretmanne van Camel die Landies daarna beetkry, het dit die tafel gedek vir ’n
reeks waaghalsige avonture wat legendes gemaak het van sowel die avonturiers as die
oranje geverfde Disco’s wat die uitdagings heelhuids voltooi het.
Sedert die tweede generasie Discovery in die fiaskojare onder BMW, het die voertuig luukser
geraak en ook meer gefokus op paddinamika, maar onbetroubaarheid en meganiese
nagmerries het die Disco se naam en reputasie met ’n plettervat grond toe gebring.
Met Ford wat toe ingegryp het, is die Disco 3 gebore. Die vreemde ontwerp is aanvanklik
met groot skeptisisme onder hardebaard Landiemanne bejeën, maar het tog heelwat gedoen
om die Disco se naam te herstel.
Die bosbrekervermoë het egter in die slag gebly om die voertuig meer van ’n luukse
gesins-SUV te maak en minder van ’n veldryer.
Die baanbreker “Terrain Response”- viertrekstelsel het nietemin die Discovery se reputasie
as ’n bekwame veldryer in ere herstel en dit was ook die begin van die elektroniese viertrekstelsels
waar bestuurders se veldryvermoëns deur blikbreine aangevul word.
Die nuwe Discovery 5 is die produk van kliënte wat al hoe meer gesofistikeerd en
kieskeurig koop. Es-joe-wies raak toenemend die voertuig van keuse en te midde van die
gestoei om onder die gewildstes gereken te word, moet motorvervaardigers met meer vindingryke
ontwerpe en idees vorendag kom sonder om dit wat goed werk in die asblik te gooi.
Die nuwe Discovery blyk vir my juis so ’n kompromis te wees, waar die beste uit die verlede
met vernuwende idees gemeng is.
Buite is die neus herkenbaar ’n mengsel van Discovery Sport en Range Rover Sport. Die
kantprofiel se lang lyf om drie rye gemaklike sitplekke te akkommodeer het trekke van die
grootbak-Range Rover, terwyl die agterkant se ronde kurwes en lang agteroorhang lomp en
swaar vertoon – iets wat my as Disco-aanhanger aanvanklik teen die bors gestuit het.
Ons het die 3-liter V6 petrolenjin met superaanjaging in “HSE”-afwerkingsvlak getoets. Dit
is die model wat met omtrent alle beskikbare luukshede toegerus is. Die groot panoramiese
glasdak, wanneer die binnedakpaneel oopgeskuif is, skep ’n heerlike gevoel van ruimte in
die kajuit.
Die instrumentasie agter die stuurwiel vertoon, anders as in die Range Rover, steeds
analoog met sekere funksies, soos die spoed, wat ook na digitaal verstel kan word. ’n Groot
volkleurraakskerm in die voorste paneel bied toegang na omtrent alle bestuurderhulpstelsels
via die Land Rover-/Jaguar-groep se gebruikersvriendelike en intuïtiewe stelsel.
Digitale beelde van hoe die viertrekstelsel en onderstel werk wanneer jy in die veld is,
asook toegang tot kamerabeelde onder en reg rondom die voertuig, sal baie help wanneer
daar in die veld gery word. Met die tru-kamerabeelde, elektriese trekstang en sleepstelselhulp
kon ek maklik en veilig ons mobiele uitsaaiateljee aanhaak, sleep en in knap plekke
parkeer.
Ons Disco het ook ’n kontrolepaneel agter teen die sy van die laairuimte gehad waar jy met
die druk van ’n knoppie die sleepstang kan uitvou en weer bêre. Daar is ook skakelaars
waarmee jy die derde ry sitplekke uit die vloer kan “opslaan” en weer wegvou en ook so
met die tweede ry sitplekke se rugleunings. Jy kan selfs ’n toepassing op jou slimfoon aflaai
waarmee jy die sitplekke kan plat- of opslaan terwyl jy buite die voertuig staan!
Aandrywing vir die nuwe Discovery 5 geskied via Land Rover se uiters bekwame permanente
viertrekstelsel en ’n 8-gang outomatiese ratkas wat tans plaaslik met twee enjinopsies
beskikbaar is: Die petrol 3,0 V6 met drukaanjaging soos met ons toetsvoertuig, lewer
250 kW en 450 Nm terwyl die 3-liter reguit turbo-dieselenjin 190 kW en 600 Nm uitskop.
Die petrolenjin se verrigting is lewendig met verbasend vinnige versnelling as jy die
petrolpedaal plant. Die nuwe Disco is bykans 500 kilogram ligter as die vorige model danksy
die omvattende gebruik van aluminium.
Terwyl dieselfde kragbronne as in die uitgaande Disco 4 gebruik word, is verrigting en dinamika
strate beter na ’n halfton se gewigsverlies. Hantering, paddinamika en brandstofverbruik
is ook merkbaar beter.
Die nuwe ontwerp met meer rondings as hoeke dra ook by tot laer sleur en windweerstand
wat ook lei tot ’n baie stiller kajuit op die pad, selfs op die grondpad en teen ooppad-spoed.
In die veld doen die nuwe Discovery 5 sy voorgangers se reputasie ook eer aan, sy lompe
voorkoms ten spyt. Met die lugvering wat die grondvryhoogte tot 230 mm oplig kan die
luukse wa gemaklik deur 90 cm diep water ry en dan die rivierwal moeiteloos uitklim.
Landrover se uiters bekwame viertrekstelsel bied verskillende modusse waaruit
veldrytoestande, wat wissel van sand, klip en selfs modder, aangepak kan word.
Daar is ook ’n “Auto”-modus waar die Disco se rekenaar die toestande buite evalueer en
dan die stelsel aanpas sodat selfs Bob Jaan agter die stuur soos ’n wafferse Kingsley Holgate
“wilde” Afrika kan tem.
Ten spyte van die logge voorkoms hanteer die nuwe Disco dinamies veel beter as sy voorganger.
Die voertuig voel selfs kleiner, ligter en ratser deur die draaie. Selfs op uitdagende
grondpaaie was die nuwe Disco geplant en vasvoetig.
Na my week agter die stuur het die Disco 5 my nie net oortuig nie, maar selfs my hart teruggewen!
Selfs die groot geronde agterkant het nie meer opgeval of gepla nie.

Goeie nuus vir verbruikers: NOG laer
brandstofpryse in Februarie verwag
Deur Fanie Brink, Onafhanklike Landbou-Ekonoom
Brandstofpryse kan welkome nuus in Februarie tot gevolg hê nadat die wisselkoers
die afgelope twee weke steeds teen die aansienlik sterker vlakke
sedert die einde van Desember verhandel het, ten spyte van die skerp styging
in die Brent-ru-olieprys, wat die internasionale maatstaf vir oliepryse is.
Volgens die jongste inligting van die Departement van Energie op hierdie stadium kan die
prys van petrol 93 (ULP & LRP) in Gauteng op Woensdag, 7 Februarie 2018 moontlik met
36,9c per liter en die prys van diesel met ‘n 0,005% swaelinhoud moontlik met 22,5c per
liter daal.
Die ooreenkoms tussen die lede van die Organisasie vir Petroleumuitvoerlande en Rusland,
wat nie ‘n lid van die organisasie is nie, om die vermindering in hulle produksie verder tot
die einde van 2018 te verleng, sowel as ‘n groter internasionale vraag, het die ru-olieprys
die afgelope maand van $63 per vat tot bykans $70 per vat verhoog.
Weens hierdie styging in die ru-olieprys kan die gemiddelde internasionale prys van petrol
moontlik in Februarie met 6,2c per liter en die prys van diesel moontlik met 23,3c per liter
styg.
Die gemiddelde daaglikse wisselkoers wat die afgelope maand van R/$13,46 tot R/$12,36
versterk het, kan na verwagting weer dalings van 43,1c per liter in die petrolprys en 45,8c
per liter in die dieselprys tot gevolg hê.
Die finale prysveranderings sal deur die minister van Energie teen die einde van die maand
bekend gemaak word.
Lieve oom Vluppie

Stationery stars is a new project I have started. Woke up one morning with the idea of giving back to the
community and making a change in kid’s lives.
My husband and I are mostly involved in helping kids who comes from broken homes or parents
having trouble affording to pay for stationery, school clothes and book packages.
This project is to help the kids and schools and safe havens for kids to ensure that every child is
prepared to learn and succeed in the classrooms by providing free school supplies to student’s schools
and the kids who need it the most.
My mission and goal is to help them who are struggling with extreme poverty and financial burdens to
make a difference in the world for their successful future. How can these children, schools be
expected to succeed in the classrooms without the basic tools or learning materials? Studies have
shown that when kids have their stationery and own books, their grades are better, classroom behavior
changes and self esteem increases and improves.
WHO DO WE HELP
•Schools willing to accept and take responsibility for unofficial donations of learning materials and
educational toys and books.
•Kids whose parents can barely afford to pay rent and/or school fees
•Most importantly the students (kids in safe havens)
My aim is to make a change in helping them to make a success of their lives and schooling career.
All the stationery and educational material, toys, and school clothes are donated by individuals and the
community.
On Sunday January 21, 2018, I visited 7th Heaven Children’s Home in Jeffrey’s Bay to give a few donations.
Irene and Nellie who is in charge of the kids was overwhelmed with the goodies that Stationery
Stars have donated to the kids for schooling purposes. At the moment they have 14 kids that have been
placed in their care and I must say that they are doing a great job. They are mostly in need of toiletries,
groceries, and clothing for the kids.
Any cash donations or individual donations or funding is also welcome!
For further information please check our FaceBook page: Stationery Stars or contact
Chantel on 079 135 1966

A child asked his father, “How were people born?” So his father said, “Adam and Eve made
babies, then their babies became adults and made babies, and so on.” The child then went
to his mother, asked her the same question and she told him, “We were monkeys then we
evolved to become like we are now.” The child ran back to his father and said, “You lied to
me!” His father replied, “No, your mom was talking about her side of the family.”

have?”
Johnny: “Seven.”
Teacher: “No, listen carefully... If I gave you two cats, and another two cats and another

Johnny: “Seven.”
Teacher: “Let me put it to you differently. If I gave you two apples, and another two apples
and another two, how many would you have?”
Johnny: “Six.”
Teacher: “Good. Now if I gave you two cats, and another two cats and another two, how
many would you have?”
Johnny: “Seven!”
Teacher: “Johnny, where in the heck do you get seven from?!”
Johnny: “Because I’ve already got a freaking cat!”
A blonde and a redhead have a ranch. They have just lost their bull. The women need to
buy another, but only have $500. The redhead tells the blonde, “I will go to the market and
see if I can find one for under that amount. If I can, I will send you a telegram.” She goes to
the market and finds one for $499. Having only one dollar left, she goes to the telegraph office
and finds out that it costs one dollar per word. She is stumped on how to tell the blonde
to bring the truck and trailer. Finally, she tells the telegraph operator to send the word “comfortable.”
Skeptical, the operator asks, “How will she know to come with the trailer from just
that word?” The redhead replies, “She’s a blonde so she reads slow: ‘Come for ta bull.’”

Tips and tricks to keep
your home on point
Keeping a home can be hard, here are a few tips to lighten the load...
Say goodbye to soap gunk on the
countertops by swapping out your bar of
soap for liquid soap or even a hands-free
soap dispenser. This will make cleaning a
breeze.
Soften your hard towels and linens by
adding half a cup of vinegar in your
washing load. The vinegar washes away
the soap build-up on your washing.
Get rid of that musty smell in your linen
closet - all you do is keep an open box
of baking soda in your closet near your
sheets. Easy as pie!
With all our cooking, we know that the
cabinets gets greasy FAST! De-grease
your cabinets by adding a little bit of dish
soap in a spray bottle with warm water and
wipe away with a cloth.

Energy expert Ted Blom: “Distributed generation
Deur Benine Cronje
will slice electricity costs by up to 90%”
Energy expert Ted Blom believes distributed
generation will slice electricity costs by up to
90% for the average household.
Blom is a speaker and advisory board member
of the 18th African Utility Week that is
taking place from 15-17 May in Cape Town,
South Africa.
In the run-up to the event, he says in an
interview that “South Africa and the world
is at the precipice of revolutionary developments
in energy generation and distribution,
and the next 5 -10 years will render such
dramatic changes that today’s energy supply
chain will not be recognisable, especially
with the advent of distributed generation,
which in many instances will kill off centralised
‘bulk’ generation and distribution. I
believe this move will slice electricity costs
by up to 90% for the average household,
and be a boom industry for participants in
the energy revolution, with concomitant radical
improvements in standards of living.”
Parliamentary investigation into Eskom
Last year, the independent energy expert
also testified before the South African Parliament’s
inquiry into Eskom’s governance:
“the Parliamentary Energy subcommittee
investigation is a refreshing attempt to decipher
what has gone wrong at Eskom since
it was ‘commercialised’ in 2001. However,
any results will only highlight that prosecution
and clean-ups are long overdue, as
the committee is powerless to take punitive
action against wrongdoers.”
Blom also conducted forensic reviews on
the Medupi, Ingula and Kusile power station
contracts, “but that work is far from complete
and dramatically short of resources.
Another milestone is the completion of the
legal preparatory work to have the first
Tegeta coal supply agreement terminated,
but again the action has been suspended
for unknown reasons. The other two Tegeta
coal supply agreements should also be ter-
Wolmark styg met 0,2%
Op die 17de veiling van die 2017/2018 seisoen het die merinowolmarkaanwyser met +0,2%
gestyg en op 18808c per kg skoon gesluit. Dit is ongeveer 21,70% hoër as ‘n jaar gelede.
Gemiddelde skoonwol prysaanwysers vir goeie kwaliteit lang vagwol (MF4/MF5) met ‘n
treksterkte van 35 (NKT) was soos volg:
18 µ 22740 (-1,5%) 21 µ 17085 (+0,4%)
19 µ 20683 (-1,1%) 22 µ 16424 (+0,8%)
20 µ 18521 (+1,3%) 23 µ 15256 (onveranderd)
Die grootste kopers op die veiling was: G Modiano (4 072 bale), Standard Wool (2 828
bale) Lempriere S A (2 036 bale). Van die 12 260 bale wat aangebied is, is 12 140 bale
verkoop (99%).
Die hoogste pryse van verkoopte wol op die BKB veiling was:
minated, but it seems South Africans do not
have the political staying power to exercise
their rights, with the result that Tegeta has
managed to get Eskom to further increase
coal supply prices, beyond the already outrageous
prices- which eventually feed into
new higher electricity prices. So while we
appear to be winning on the ‘small stage’,
we are falling further behind on the ‘Big
Stage’”.
“Nuclear deal will be pushed through”
With regards to the pending decision on
the nuclear deal, Ted Blom says: “I am
convinced that the nuclear deal will be
pushed through the moment South African
citizens take their ‘eye off the ball’. Zuma’s
government has already confirmed that it
is beholden to the Russian deal, and their
delivery of those contracts to Russia is
allegedly behind. So expect renewed vigour
from Eskom and the Department of Energy
to bulldoze these through.”

TedBlom-interview African Utility Week endeavours
to provide a platform for dialogue
in the industry and the views and opinions
of event speakers and advisory board members
do not necessarily reflect the views or
position of the organisers.
Award-winning energy platform
The 18th annual African Utility Week will
gather over 7000 decision makers from
more than 80 countries to discuss the
challenges, solutions and successes in the
power, energy and water sectors on the
continent. Along with multiple side events
and numerous networking functions the
event also boasts a seven track conference
with over 300 expert speakers.
The conference programme will address the
latest challenges, developments and
opportunities in the power and water
sectors: ranging from generation, T&D,
metering, technology and water.
The African Utility Week expo offers an extensive
technical workshop programme that
are CPD accredited, free to attend, handson
presentations that take place in defined
spaces on the exhibition floor. They discuss
practical, day-to-day technical topics, best
practices and product solutions that businesses,
large power users and utilities can
implement in their daily operations.
Industry support
Already the event has secured support from
leading industry players including Landis+-
Gyr, Hexing South Africa as platinum sponsors
while water expert company Sensus
is a gold sponsor. African Utility Week is
the flagship energy event organised by the
multi-award winning Spintelligent, leading
Cape Town-based trade exhibition and
conference organiser, and part of Clarion
Events Ltd, based in the UK. Other wellknown
energy events by Spintelligent are

Plant jou eie Kersietamaties
Is ‘n tamatie ‘n vrug of ‘n groente?
Wat jy ook al kies, hier is wenke om jou te
help om lekker tamaties in houers te groei
met jou eie kompos. Jy kan gesonder tuisgemaakte
tamaties produseer, selfs al het jy
nie ‘n tuin nie!
As jy ‘n beperkte ruimte het om jou tamaties
te laat groei, wil jy dalk ‘n kleiner houer kies
wat die groeipotensiaal van die plant sal
beperk en jou plant beperk tot ‘n hanteerbare
grootte.
Toegang tot ‘n Stoep, Patio of Balkon:
Tamatieplante benodig direkte sonlig vir
‘‘n paar uur per dag. Hoe meer sonlig, hoe
beter die resultate. As jou plant minder as
ses uur se direkte sonlig per dag ontvang,
sal jou tamatieopbrengs kleiner wees.
Wat jy nodig het:
Groot Houers
Toegang tot 'n Stoep, Patio of Balkon
Tuinslang of Gieter
Potgrond
Tuisgemaakte Kompos
kunsmis
Draad of hout stokkies om die plant regop
te hou
Groot Houers: Die grootte van die houer
wat jy gebruik om tamaties te laat groei,
maak nie saak nie. Oor die algemeen, hoe
groter die houer, hoe groter sal die plant
groei. Groter plante dra meer tamaties. Met
behulp van ‘n groot houer kan die
wortelstelsel van die plant beter groei en
ontwikkel.
‘n Sterk wortelstelsel laat die plant langer
en voller groei.
Tuinslang of Gieter: Pasop dat die grond
in jou tamatiehouer nie te droog word nie.
Inteendeel, jy moet dit ook nie te veel water
gee nie! Die sleutel tot sukses is om die
grond klam te hou, maar nie te nat nie. Die
houer wat jy gebruik, moet ‘n voldoende
dreineringstelsel hê; maak seker dat die
houer nie in ‘n poel water staan nie.
Potgrond: Maak seker dat jy hoë gehalte
potgrond gebruik. “All-purpose”potgrond sal
die truuk doen. Potgrond is by die meeste
hardeware en tuinwinkels beskikbaar.
Do you know you
can use
bicarbonate of
soda for plants?
Give Plants a Boost
Mix together 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of
soda, 1/2 teaspoon clear ammonia and 1
teaspoon Epsom salt in a gallon of water.
Mix well and give each plant about a quart
of the solution. This solution will work as a
fertilizer, the plants that are looking dull, and
growing slowly will perk up, rejuvenate their
growth and become lush green.
Encourage Plants to Bloom
Dissolve 1 tablespoon of bicarbonate of
soda into 2 quarts of water and use this to
water your flowering plants to encourage
blooming.
Sweeter Tomatoes
Sprinkle a small amount of bicarbonate of
soda around the base of your tomato plants.
Thebicarbonate of soda will be absorbed
into the soil and lowers the acidity level of
tomatoes, thus gives you sweeter than tart
flavor.
Acidic Soil
If you have acidic soil, sprinkle a small
amount of bicarbonate of soda on it
(application rate varies according to the pH
level). When digging, mix it and water and
retest your soil after a few days. Do this on
the small area first. You will be impressed
by the results: Fewer weeds, more flowers,
and high-yield garden.
Kill Cabbage Worms
Mix equals part of flour and bicarbonate of
soda and dust that on infected plants. The
worms that inflicting your brassicas will ingest
the baking powder mixture while eating
the leaves and die soon.

See how far your voice can travel with this
tin can phone. It’s easy to make at home
with bits and pieces from around the house.
You will need:
•2 washed tin cans. Get an adult to make
sure there are no sharp edges. Tin cans
work best, but if you’d prefer you can use
plastic cups instead.
•A decent length of string
•A nail and hammer
Stand the tin cans upside down and poke
a hole through the bottom of each one with
the nail and hammer. Thread one end of the
string through the hole in one of the cans
and tie a knot at the end so that it can’t
come through. Do this at the other end with
the other can also. With a friend, each take
a tin can and walk far enough apart that the
string is held taught.
Have fun with your friends with
your OWN Tin Can phone
One person can talk into the can while the
other listens. You can also decorate it to
your liking.
