Ons hoor 'n ewige geteem dat Afrikaans glo besig is om uit te sterf.
Se voet.
Behalwe vir die Engelse fees te Grahamstad, is daar etlike en aaneen
Afrikaanse kultuurfeeste, en ek weet nie van 'n enkele fees vir enige van
die ander etniese tale nie.
Hulle is tog onder dieselfde gevaar om deur Engels oorheers en oorgeneem te
word.

Ek lees dat SA se vuurwapenamnestie sleg misluk het weens die feit dat 70%
van die vuurwapens wat ingehandig was, mense was wat of 'n geërfde vuurwapen
was wat hulle nie wil registreer nie want hulle wil dit nie gebruik nue, of
mense wat nie kans sien vir die verhoogde koste en probleme van die nuwe
lisensiestelsel nie. Van onwettige, gesteelde vuurwapens is weinig
gesien......
Ai, watter lekker wedstryd om na te kyk!.
Daar spring die Haaie toe met 1 wedstryd bo-oor die Bababloubulletjies op
die punteleer:)) ( eintlik trek hulle nou gelyk)
Die Katte het ook eintlik goed gespeel, as mens in aanmerking neem dat daar
etlike grondonnosel spelers in die span is:))
Arme Stormers - hulle speel met 'n wil om te verloor:)
'Historiese Vaart' noem ek dit!
Taal puriste sou dit eerder 'n geskiedkundige vaart noem.
Gister, toe my vrou en ek op die gondola klim by uShaka Island,
vir 'n vaart op die kanaal, (Lazy River is die naam dink ek) is ons
so terloops deur die gondolier(?) eienaar vertel dat ons die eerste
mense is vir 'n vaart op die rivier. En ons genooi vir nog 'n vaart
gisteraand om die ligte langs die water vanaf die boot te fotografeer.
Ons was dus weer omgewing agtuur op die gondola.
Heel interessante mensgemaakte rivier, waarvan die doel is om die
water in die akwarium te sirkuleer. Die gevolg is dus dat selfs die
grootste tenks in die akwarium elke 90 minute (tyd onder korreksie)
kompleet nuwe water het.
Daar is reeds twee sandhaaie in en menige ander vis in om die alge te
vreet. Omdat die water helder is, is die vis heel sigbaar wanneer dit
verby swem.

Ek dink nie die rivier gaan nou na my vernoem word nie,
maar seker sal daar nou 'n groot foto van my ten toon gestel word,
en boeke oor geskryf word. Ek weet nie eens wie gaan die draaiboek
skryf nie.
Ek kan net 'n bietjie Afrikaans praat maar ek wil probeer in Afrikaans
te skryf. Ek is jammer, almal. Maar Engels is vervelig.
Enigeen weet waar ek 'n goeie webblad vir Afrikaanse lied lirieke kan
vind? Ek soek lirieke vir sulke kunstenaars soos Anton Goosen, Piet
Botha, Koos Kombuis...Wanneer ek in Suid-Afrika gewees, ek het n paar
CDs gekoop , maar die CDs het nie liriek boeke gehad. Baie Dankie vir
jou help en ek is jammer vir my Afrikaans. Wanneer ek die webblad met
die lirieke vind, ek sal meer van die taal instudeer.
"The men will be staying in Zimbabwe," lawyer Alwyn Griebenow said.
Health activists on Wednesday criticised the passing by India's lower house
of parliament of a patents law prohibiting the manufacture of low-cost
generics, saying it threatens millions of people around the world living
with HIV/Aids and cancer.

Ten foreign docters who failed their statutory South African board
examinations are practising in state hospitals around the country.
The Health Professions Council of South Africa's committeee
co-ordinator for foreign qualified practitioners, Ntombi Ramatlo, has
been dismissed for fraudulently registering the doctors, who are
mostly from Eastern Europe end the Democratic Republic of Congo, and
criminal charges may be brought against her.
However, even though the councill is aware of the situation, the
doctors are working in the goverment hospitals around the country,
including Durban, Johannesburg and Cape Town.

They are doctors Usama Sirsawy (Ukraine) (ek is seker ek het die naam
Usama al erens gehoor) Youlain Mitchev (Bulgaria) Ditsia Maponda (DRC)
en so word almal se name en die meeste se nasionaliteite genoem.

She (Anina Steel- Health Professions Council spokeswoman) said it did
not appear to the council that the doctors have been directly involved
in the fraudulent processes.

Ou Frikkie, ek wens jy kon meer doen as copy en paste, want ek sou so
graag jou gewigdraende mening hieroor wou hoor.
Dis die bleek maan wat die getye draai ;
die water spoel soos tyd daar oor die strand.
Blou bult die see by Mosselbaai.
Ek en jy speel op die grofgeel sand,
die Outenikwaberg bruin in die agtergrond.
Dis die bleek maan wat die getye draai.
Hierdie was eens die Strandlopers se land.
Hulle lê nou wit in grotte se diep grond.
Blou bult die see by Mosselbaai.
Hulle wat heuning uit die steil kant
van die Outenikwa kon rook en brand.
Dis die bleek maan wat die getye draai.
Ons lag in die branders - hand aan hand
waar die bruin rivier in die see in mond,
blou bult die see by Mosselbaai.
Jy soet soos heuning uit die berg gebrand,
en ek : saam op Kleinbrakrivier se strand.
Dis die bleek maan wat die getye draai
en die see blou bult by Mosselbaai.
Dankie Dawid:))
Ek wonder nou net of die Stormers aspris so swak gespeel het, sodat die
verguising deur almal hierdie naweek en week hulle sal aanspoor tot 'n wen
volgende naweek? Dit het gehelp vir die Bulletjies, hoekom nie vir hulle ook
nie?
De Kock, kaptein, beweer dat hulle nou sal moet ophou jol en begin ernstig
word. Bietjie baie laat.
Ek dog dan juis die spelers word so buitengewoon goed betaal sodat hulle
moet dink dis 'n ernstige werk?
Wat dink julle is die doel om plaasvervangers op te stuur 'n minuut voor die
einde? Sodat hulle nie as verloorders van die veld stap nie?
