LOCAL lasses Kim Jones, Lindalani Itabor and Moira King took part in the trail run held at Rocky Bay last Sunday. Although it was hot and windy, yes – the October winds have arrived – it was a lot of fun. Moira and Lindalani entered the 20km run and Kim did the 12km one.

Fighting crime
After a recent increase in nocturnal house break-ins, the community congratulates the Saps for apprehending two suspicious guys carrying tools in Umtentweni. They were also found wearing four sets of clothing at the time. Thank you to Brigadier Sandra Nala for attending the Umtentweni CPF’s monthly meeting last week and for assuring us that the Saps are doing all that they can to fight crime in the area – ‘One crime is too many’.
Be there
Muddy Boots Market raises funds for the security camera upgrade and they will be holding their first Saturday market this week on October 6 – please support it.
Holiday fun
Rod and Ria Hackland have five grandchildren visiting for the school holidays. It’s unclear who will have more fun.
Budding farmer
Your scribe thinks that the ‘farming bug’ has bitten young Ethan Prinsloo, who proudly reaped his first crop of tomatoes last week.
Welcome back
Glenda and Marcel Schutgens have just spent a month in the Netherlands and will arrive home today (Wednesday) after ‘house swapping’ with a Dutch couple. Former residents Richard and Alida Manuel and their daughters Joline and Suzanne recently spent some time with family in Tweni. The family relocated to Hamilton, New Zealand, about 10 years ago.
Some enchanted evening
Derick Celliers reports that the Umtentweni Bowling Club recently held a well-supported, fun and enjoyable Caribbean dinner/dance for members and guests. Bright colours and leis were the order of the day and it was really good to see so many ‘oldies’ on the dance floor, showing off moves from the 60s and 70s. A big vote of thanks to Marie Pick, Nellie Davies and all helpers for a fabulous evening.
Three cheers
Happy anniversary to Kelvin and Anita Hulley, Julie and Donovan Solomon and Cynthia and Alan Dean for October 1. Birthday wishes go to Marcel Schutgens (3rd), Delvin Allan (4th), Jean Masson (5th) and Tarryn Schlehmeyer on the 8th.
All news to Leila.
