Tweni Talk: Marius pops the question on bended knee
This is the second engagement to have taken place at the whale deck.
THERE was much excitement on Umtentweni Whale Deck last Saturday when Marius Barnard got down on bended knee and asked long-time sweetheart Sheree Holl to marry him. This is the second engagement that has taken place at the whale deck (that your scribe is aware of) and it probably won’t be the last at this lovely spot. Thanks to Alex Skene and his team at Umtentweni Conservancy for all the effort put into making this such a popular site.

Take precautions
There has been a fair amount of movement by brazen criminals recently and they are targeting residences at various times of the day and night. Please set beams and alarms and remember to report anything suspicious. Be the eyes and ears for those departments which cannot be everywhere. Important numbers to remember are Law Enforcement at 039 6825555 and SAPS at 10111. Make sure to ask for the OB number as a reference.
Happy birthday to Kelvin Hulley (10th), Anton Nel, Cynthia Cole and Gwen Ross (11th), Justine Crouse (12th), Bas Heilbron (14th), Neil Thomas, Matt Defilippi, Christopher van der Wath and Naazima Khatib on July 16.
