BIGGER and better.

That seems to be themotto of theKougaMu-nicipality for the remainder of the 2014/ 2015financial year, ending June.

With the Jeffreys Bay Library relocated tothe old Ski Boat Club earlier this year, thebuildingwill nowbe transformed into aCoun-cil chamber to the tune of R1.5 million. Apartfrom the council chamber, the facility will behome to additional offices, twoboardroomsorcaucus rooms, printing room, kitchen and re-ception area.

Construction will commence in the fourthquarter of the current financial year, April to

June, once the procurement processes havebeen finalised.

According tomunicipal spokesperson, Lau-ra-Leigh Randall, the current Council cham-berdoesnothave enough space for all 29 coun-cillors.

“Additional seats have bo be brought in, es-pecially if there are members of the public aswell. The new chamber will be big enough toaccommodate all councillors, aswell as the of-ficials who have to attend the meetings andmembers of the public,” says Randall.

“It will, furthermore, be disabled-friendly.”According to Randall, the municipality

would like to popularise Council meetings byadvertising these meetings more broadly, asthis is the platform where elected leaders de-

bate and make decisions around service deli-very.

“By encouraging residents and stakeholdergroups to attend these meetings, we hope toimprove public understanding of the man-date and day-to-day operations of the munici-pality,” says Randall.

“The final plan and costing is subject toCouncil approval.”

A call centre is also in the pipeline for thisyear in order to improve the management ofcomplaints.

“Complaints-handling is not centralised atthe municipality. Each directorate handlesits own complaints through its own staff atdifferent units, which makes it difficult tomonitor,” says Randall.

“The new call centre will centralise com-plaints-handling and standardise themannerin which complaints are received and re-solved.

“Call centre staff will receive complaintstelephonically or via email. The relevant di-rectorate will be informed of the complaint inorder to address it. A reference number willbe issued per complaint in order to improvethe tracking of complaints and feedback tocomplaints.”

It is expected that the necessary equipmentwill be in place by the second quarter of thenew financial year, between October and De-cember.

“Our aim is for the call centre to be opera-tional by early 2016,” says Randall.

LANDFILL SITES TORECEIVE FACELIFT

Transfer station for St FrancisBayMONIQUE BASSON

A TRANSFER station is on the cards for St FrancisBay, while landfill sites in the Kouga region will beupgraded at a cost of R25 million in the new financialyear.

This forms part of the Kouga Municipality’s KougaWasteManagement and Recycling Project, which willbe implemented in the 2015/2016 financial year, start-ing July.

St Francis Bay will soon be home to a transfer sta-tion.

According toKougamunicipal spokesperson,Mfun-do Sobele, a transfer station will be constructed in St

Francis Bay to make provision for a temporary baseof waste disposal as the proper landfill site in Hu-mansdorp is too far from the community of the town.

“The current site in St Francis Bay does not meetstandards to be a landfill site according to legislationand themunicipality has secured a closing permit fromtheDepartment of EnvironmentalAffairs,” says Sobele.

“Once this is done, theremust be another provisionfor disposal of waste which is where we are headedwith the landfill site.”

The Humansdorp and Hankey landfill sites willboast new security fencing, guard houses and a newwaste cell. A weigh bridge will furthermore be in-stalled at the Humansdorp landfill site in order tomove to an electronic waste recording system.

Electricity and water will see the biggest price in-crease, promptedby the rising cost of purchasing theseservices fromEskomand theNelsonMandelaBayMet-ro respectively as well as the increasing cost associa-tedwith repairing andmaintaining the required infra-structure.

A tariff increase of 12% will be implemented for wa-ter fromJuly 1, 2015, while the consumer tariff for elec-tricity will increase by an average of 12,2% to offsetthe additional bulk purchase cost of 14,24%, also fromJuly 1 this year.

Tariff increases proposed for 2015/2016financial year

THE Kouga Council has committed itself tomaximising service delivery in the new fi-nancial year by cutting back on operatingcosts and pumping more money into capitalprojects.

The draft annual budget and draft Integrat-ed Development Plan (IDP) for the new finan-cial year, which commences in July, were ta-bled to Council on Tuesday, March 31.

The documents will now be taken to com-munities for comment. The schedule of thepublichearings, to takeplace inallwardsdur-ing April and May, is being finalised and willbe communicated through themedia, themu-nicipal website and municipal noticeboards.

Executive Mayor Booi Koerat said thetheme of the new budget was to save moneyon the operating budget in order to fund keycapital projects identified in the draft IDP.

“Our operating revenue for the new yearhas been set at R638,741 million. This is an in-crease of 6% or R37,3 million compared to the2014/2015 adjustment budget,” he said.

Theexpected income fromrates and servicedelivery is as follows:. R149,5m from property rates. R232,4m from electricity. R54,8m from water. R40,2m from sanitation. R27,9m from refuse removal

The operating expenditure for the newyearhas been set at R688,285 million, which is 2%more than the 2014/2015 adjustment budget.The total includes an estimated R80 millionfor depreciation, which is a non-cash item.

Key expenditure items include R200,8 mil-lion for bulk purchases and R212,5 million foremployee-related costs. Seven percent of the

total operating budget will be put towards re-pairs and maintenance, with a full mainte-nance plan to be tabled to Council in orderto ensure the optimal use of this funding.

The draft capital budget for the new yearhas been set at R64,56 million, which is an in-crease of 37% or R17,372 million when com-pared to the 2014/2015 adjustment budget.

The Mayor said the substantial increase ofthe municipality’s capital budget would bemade possible by saving money on operatingcosts.

“No additional fundingwill bemade availa-ble to directorates in the new year. The ope-rating adjustment budget of 2014/2015 will becarried over as is except salaries and othercontractual items.Wewill also continue to ex-ercise strict control over cost drivers such asovertime and fuel consumption,” he said.

He said that this approach would allow theCouncil to free upR31million from internallygenerated funds. This money will be used forcapital programmes, including improved ac-cess roads, water, sanitation, electricity andcommunity halls.”

While a provisional list of capital projectshas been included in the draft budget, theMay-or cautioned that this list would change de-pending on inputs received from communities.

“The main focus of this budget has beento maximise service delivery to communi-ties, especially to poor and disadvantaged ar-eas, while eliminating thewastage of resour-ces on unnecessary, non-service deliveryitems. We look forward to working togetherwith all communities and stakeholders to en-sure that we build a better Kouga for all,” heconcluded.

Council considers draft IDP and budget

THE cost of municipal services is expected to increaseby an average of between 6%and 12% in the new finan-cial year, starting July 2015.

This is according to the draft municipal budget for2015/2016, which was tabled to the Kouga Council onTuesday, March 31.

In terms of the draft budget property rates will in-crease by 6% for businesses and 6% for residential prop-erties.

A 6% increase is also on the cards for refuse removaland sanitation.

MISDAAD het hier so handuit geruk dat ’n Hankey besig-heideienaar genoop voel om na twee dekades sy deurete sluit.

Daar is gerugte dat nóg winkels wat vanjaar reeds ver-skeie kere onder inbrekers deurgeloop het, gaantoemaak.

“Ons kan nie meer so aangaan nie,” sê Wilma Cecil,die eienaar van Smoochies Meubels in Hankey. “In ons20 jaar bestaan het ons 22 inbrake die hoof gebied. Onskan nie meer nie, ons is op ons knieë.”

Smoochies Meubels sluit vandag, 2 April, sy deure virgoed.

Volgens Cecil, was daar in middel Maart twee keer bydie winkel ingebreek.

“Die inbrekers het die diefwering by een van die agter-ste vensters afgebreek om toegang tot die gebou te ver-kry. Hulle het verder die kragboks beskadig sodat diealarm nie sal afgaan nie,” vertel Cecil.

“Hulle het die winkel behoorlik omgedop - goedere hetdie grond vol gelê en daar was skaars plek om te loop.

“Die Hankey Hotel en Local is Lekker het ook in dietydperk deurgeloop.”

Tydens vorige inbrake is stoele en tafels vol verf be-mors, seile is stukkend gesny, deurhandvatsels is afge-breek en goed is na willekeur beskadig.

Volgens ’n inwoner wat anoniem wil bly, dra die stuk-kende straatlige van meer as twee jaar, grootliks by totdie toename in misdaad.

Volgens polisiewoordvoerder a.o. Basis Seekoei, isdaar ’n toename in huisbrake in Hankey. “Die polisiehandhaaf ’n hoë sigbaarheid in dié gebiede en misdaad-voorkoming strategieë is in plek om die situasie daad-werklik aan te spreek.”

Sake-eienaaars en inwoners word vriendelik versoekom hul eiendomme te beveilig en om vakante eiendommeby die polisiestasie te rapporteer sodat polisielede die eien-domme gereeld kan besoek. “’n Vergadering sal mettertydmet gemeenskaplede en sake-eienaars gereël word, om vei-ligheidkwessies aan te spreek,” sê Seekoei.

MONTY is in tip-top shape, passports are inorder, all the necessary medical tests can beticked off, the route has been mapped out . . .and the packing has started.

All that is left to do, is loading the bags and,of course, the not-to-be-forgotten coffee ma-chine before they can close the door behindthem and once again take the road to theirnext bucket list destination.This time round, seasoned travellers Paul

and Maria Eberhard’s faithful companionMonty - a 4 x 4 truck specially manufacturedinKnysnaandwhich includes living facilities- will be steered towards Zambezi in Zambiaon a “secret mission”. This is the first timethey will be visiting Zambezi.Paul is still extremely secretive about this

mission, and says the magic word is 4k, alsoknown as Ultra High Definition.The Eberhards will embark on their three

month long journey from Aston Bay on April15. Covering between 3 500km to 4 000km.FromAston Bay theywill travel to Gaborone,visit theVictoria Falls atKasane before cross-ing over to Zambia where they will passthrough the Liuwa Plains before arriving atthe border of Angola and the Democratic Re-public of Congo - all while collecting footage.Collecting footage and film editing are not

new territories to Paul.In 1999 he was awarded a bronze certificate

at the Dolphin Awards in the Associate Divi-sion Category for his film Chapungu, a wild-life documentary. The very next year he re-ceived a merit certificate for a video he madeof a luxury guest house and national monu-ment in the Mountain Zebra National Parknear Cradock, while in 2001 he took home a

coveted silver certificate for his productionBird, a visual accompaniment to the songfrom South African music outfit Dead CanDance.Paul’s love for film and editing started in

1966 when he decided to hitch hike fromCapeTown to Switzerland. Armed with a super8mmfilmcamera and ten rolls of film, he tookto the road. On his arrival at Bira in Mozam-bique, he sold his camera to pay for a ferryticket to India.Some years later, he even featured in vari-

ous films and television studies.Apart from awards for his films, Paul - who

is a graduate of the Swiss Hotel School in Lu-cerne - also boasts the title of the EuropeanBar Tending Championship winner in 1978,after which he took the John White WorldCup in 1979.In 1986 he held the position of director of

the Homeopathic School of Switzerland.Paul and Maria moved to South Africa in

1992 and relocated to Jeffreys Bay in 1995where they opened the first five star B & Bguest house called Stratos.“There are still big things to come. At the

age of 70 Imust take onnewchallenges to pre-vent myself from rusting,” says Paul laugh-ingly.According to Paul, one route which he

would love to discover, but which is a night-mare route and nearly impossible to travel,is the road leading from Lubumbshi to Kin-shasha.“Travellers wishing to join us on our next

journey, are more than welcome to contactme. However, theymust have their own vehi-cle (a bakkie or 4 x4), food, passports, medi-cine and be in good health. They must alsoknow that it costs money,” says Paul.Paul can be contacted at 082 652 1944.

THE South African National Blood Service(SANBS) are planning a special Easter Pro-motion asking for donations as the EasterWeekend draws close.

A special Easter Egg Hunt Promotion willbe taking place at Donor Centres in andaroundPortElizabeth from todayuntilApril4 (excludingApril 3whenDonorCentreswillbeclosed).Everydonorwhodonatesoverthisperiod will receive a sweet something andwill also stand the chance to draw a “luckyegg” and be a winner.According to SANBS, blood stocks take aserious plunge over the Easter period be-cause of the many public holidays and longweekends.SANBS said they also continuously look atimproving the donor experience. “We areverypleased toannounce that asofMarch16,all 87 donor centres around the country willbe offering one hour free WiFi to all donors.We know that many ofour donors spend muchof their time on socialmedia platforms anddownloading other ap-plications, and nowcompliments of SANBSyou have 60 minutes of

free access to the internet,” said VanessaRaju, National Communications Manager,SANBS.Sustaininganadequatebloodstock level tomeet the demand of hospitals becomes a seri-ous challenge when most high schools, terti-ary institutions and factories are closed dur-ing the holiday period.“Approximately 3 000 units of blood areneededdaily and for everydayweareunableto make this target, the total units of bloodthat are available deplete. This usually thencauses the SANBS to impose cut backs;whichmeans the full requirement of blood toa patient is regulated in such amanner, thatthe blood stocks are preserved optimally,”said Nina van Wyk, Public Relations Practi-tioner at the SANBS Port Elizabeth Branch.SANBS said if you are in good health andbetween the ages of 16 and 65, weigh morethan 50kg, and lead a sexually safe lifestyle,join in the spirit of giving this Easter.

The hunt is on for committedblood donors

SANBS staff members,Zama Ngcolomba andSimpiwe Mcoboki, saidthey are eagerlyawaiting actual units ofblood to replace theEaster eggs in thecentrifuge machine.

Mense het mos die gewoonte om jouskeef aan te kykwanneer jy vertel van’n dier wat jou uit éie wil kies vir die

belewenis van ’n leeftyd. Daar is mos te veeldie diere wie se gees op wrede wyse vir diemens se genot gebreek word.

MaarSkollie, die “amptelike” toergidshondvan die Baviaanskloof, laat hom nie inbreeknie. Hý kies die mense wat saam met homdeur sý Waterkloof gaan stap.Jý stap saam met Skollie, hy stap nie saam

met jóúnie – so deurdie kloofwaardie fontei-ne diep tussen die rotskranse loop, die vark-ore soos reuse groei en die bome verdiepingshoog staan.Sewe jaar gelede het Skollie my die eerste

keer geweeg en swaar genoegbevindomsaammet hom deur sy kloofkerk te gaan stap. Netek enhy.Ditwasmeer as ’n heilige belewenis.Al dié dinge verduidelik ek aan kollegaHei-

lie Combrinck op pad na die Baviaanskloof.Vroeër in die week het die ding om weer

saammet Skollie te stap, aan my binneste ge-vreet: Sy uur is laat, hy is 11 jaar oud – 77 inmensejare.Ons kry Skollie by die Kolgans-boshut op

Bo-Kloof. Twee Vrystaters het pas daar inge-boek. Anina, sy mense-ma, sê Skollie hetklaar besluit om saam met hulle te stap.Ons roep hom nader, doen ons bes om hom

af te vry. Hy kom groet lyfskuur en natsnoet. . . en draai terug na die boshut.“Stuur hy ons stert tussen die bene weg,”

sê ek vir Heilie. Sy lag.“Hy het hond se gedagtes oor ons motiewe

gekry!” En daar gaan die Vrystaatse egpaar

met hom na sy Waterkloof.Onthou, Skollie het nie ’n saak met mense-

sentiment nie. Net sowel, want was dit an-ders, sou hy swarthondpil én rumatiekpilmoes drink met die knaende mense-dagsê en-totsiens.Die volgende oggend keur Skollie ons twee

goed om saam met hom deur Waterkloof tegaan stap. Hy hardloop vooruit, ruik aan bos,grond en klip waar bobbejaan, skillie en das-sie kom loop het, lig been en sit weer sy hand-tekening daarop.Die son bak warm, die aarde is kurkdroog.

Ons wil gou in die kloof kom, maar Skollieskiet eers regs na digte bos. Bly daar totdatons gaan kyk. Ah, die eerste plek waar fon-teinwater weer bo die grond uitgekom het!Toe maak ons soos hy en drink die suiwer

water, en hy draf weer tevrede vooruit. Kykkort-kort om te kyk of ons nog aankom. Sekeral die afgelope 11 jaar geleer dat die mensewat saamstap, baie stilstaan om die kontras-terende natuurprag in te neem, te kiek of nette peins.Net voor die plek waar die kranse mekaar

in die oë begin kyk, spoel die fonteinwaterglashelder oor klip en verby reuse-varingsaan die rotswande. Sewe jaar gelede het ek ge-dink dis die eindpunt en het ek gaan sit. Skol-lie het bly terugkyk totdat ek hom verder ge-volg het. Nou is dit weer so.Heilie praat niks nie. Jip, dis moeilik om

emosies te verwoord wanneer ’n hond sý wê-reldmet jou deel.Wanneer hy jou vat totwaardie wildevy en die witstinkhout-wolkekrab-ber is, die padda blinklyf op ’n klipbak, diearonskelk wit-oor blom en die spoelklippe

langs die kabbelende water. Peinstyd. Stilte-tyd. Skollie, sy gesig in ’n vraagteken getrek,draf nader. Ons het langer gesit en net “ge-is”as wat ons gedink het.Ja, as Skollie, Oudemeester van die Bavi-

aanskloof, jou gekies het, bly hy by jou.- Mariska Spoormaker

JANNIE HOUGH

SO lees ek onlangs met verbystering van onse prez se diepe insigin die geskiedenis van die land.

Jan van Riebeeck, vloei die kennis uit sy wye mond, is die oorsaakvan al die gemors in die land.Ek vee die angssweet af - ten minste kom mý voorsate uit Duits-

land. Ek is dus off the hook. Ek is ’n square kop, nie ’n kaaskop nie.Ek wonder toe of die prez onthou van Bartholomeus Dias, Vasco

da Gama, Francisco d’Almeido en ’n klomp ander trigger-happysnare met hul seemanskultuur en lojaliteit aan hul Europese en an-der base. Hierdie menere het nie nonsies van kabouters gevat nie.Hulle het net een taal geken: klits my met ’n pyl en ek blits jou met’n kanon. Ek dink toe onse Jan op 5 April 1652 op die toneel afgeseilkom, toe is die scenario reeds voorberei - fynproewermateriaal virmakabere oorlogsfilms.Aan die ander kant is die prez heeltemal reg. Jan en sy troepe

het net kom marakkas maak. As hulle vir Harry die Strandloperin vrede gelaat het, het hy reeds op 4 April begin om die Kaapsehawe, Adderleystraat, die wolkekrabbers, die spoorwegstasie, diekabelspoor, die Kaapse hawe, die parlementsgebou en die res vandie infrastruktuur te beplan en blitsig te ontwikkel. En as ’n knolsoos Joris van Spilbergen (watter ma gee haar kind so ’n naam?)nie Saldanhabaai na Tafelbaai verander het nie, kon Harry en syhooggeleerde span argitekte hoeka dié baai aan die voet van Tafel-berg Thabo M’Beki-strand genoem het.Dan was tannie Patricia Kaapse Burgemeester nie vandag in die

sop oor haar raad se gevry na oom FW nie. FW de Klerk-rylaan -verbeel jou! Waar was hý toe Harry en sy stoere volgelinge ’n werk-bare plan moes bedink om renosterstropery deur die plunderendeVan Riebeeck-bende stop te sit? Waar was hy toe hulle ons water-bronne met hul lewens moes verdedig?Dieprez is reg.Asdie 34-jarigeVanRiebeeckmet sy jeugdigevoort-

varendheid liewer tien seemyl van die Kaap af in sy kajuit gelê enseesiek word het, en die vreedsame inwoners van die land uitgeloshet - dink, man, dink: dan het die inheemse volkere daai tyd al sel-fone ontwikkel; motors ontwerp wat Henry Ford se Model T soos’n Dinky Toy laat lyk het; tjokkabote met helder ligte ter see laatvaar het; teerpaaie gebou het ... noem maar op. Oom Stephen Haw-king sê dan hoeka die wetenskap leer ’n mens kan agtertoe in tydbeweeg en vorentoe. Dit was harry se geheim: Foresight.Maar toe kom Jan. Al die gemors wat Diaz en Da Gama en ander

militante agtergelaat het, dryf toe nog vars in die arme inheemseinwoners se gemartelde siele rond. Toe voeg oomJan insult to injury,en hy en sy seerotte shunt die plaaslike inwoners rond, skiet-skop-en-trek hulle velle af, gee hulle haasgras om te rook, aakligeHolland-se kaas om te eet, rooi papegaaisap om hul helder breine te benewel.En so by so begin allerhande gevoelens teen mekaar ontwikkel. Dieoorsaak van al die nonsens wat ons deesdae moet verduur, is niedie inheemse manne se skuld nie, Steve, dis Jan van Riebeeck s’n.Kan jy dit dan nie in jou kop kry nie? JAN VAN RIEBEECK! Hýis die sondaar, die Filistyn, die lieplapper, die maaifoedie.Die Rooi Barette se gedrag in die parlement - dis Jan se

skuld. Verstaan mense dan nie die konsep van atavisme nie?Die Europeërs het die reine, aardse inheemses kom begogel.Nou slaan mense soos die Rooi Barette se gedrag maar netgeneties terug na hul gemartelde voorvaders se seer denke.Sielkunde. Baie moeilik. Die onlangse rooi gety - alles VanRiebeeck se skuld.Sy gekarring in onsgebiedswaters hetdie stomme krewese oerfamilie sogetraumatiseer dathulle nou, drieeeue later, vanpure oorgeërfdeskok, landsdierewil word en enmasse die oseaanverlaat. En so kanons aangaan. Elkestommiteit, elkedwaasheid van die21ste eeu - op Janse rekening.Kierangs braai noubehoorlik.Die land se

Numero Uno issowaar reg. Vivadie prez! Viva syhistoriese vaar-dighede! Viva syvroue en kindertjies!(Ruimte ontbreekmy ongelukkig omalmal van hulle tebesing).Maar Viva

anyway.

BRUIN lywe, bont bikini’s, soepel spiere, son,see en branderplanke . . .

Voeg hierby gesoute akteurs, vars talent,plaaslike inwoners en ’n fris bries oorspronk-likheid: ’n wenresep vir enige film.

Hoofstroomproduksies het Jeffreysbaai dieafgelope ruk in rep en roer gehad, onderwylhulle Die Pro in en om die dorp geskiet het.

As Afrikaans nie juis jou “ding” is nie, isdie pragtige omgewing en gebruik van topge-halte en moderne tegnologie genoeg om enigefliekgogga te beïndruk.

Die splinternuwe film behoort teen Septem-ber op die grootdoek te draai. Verfilming hetDinsdag geeindig. Van die akteurs sal in Aprilhul nuutgevonde branderplankvernuf uit-leef, wanneer die laaste skote vir die film ge-doen word. Talle van hulle het vir die film

hier leer branderplankry.Suid-Afrikaanse akteurs Vilje Maritz,

Neels van Jaarsveld, Heleen Truter, Edwinvan der Walt en Albert Maritz vertolk rollein die film.

Janis Ellis, publisiteitsbeampte van Hoof-stroomproduksies, vertel: “Die film, gegrondop die boek, Die Pro, deur Leon de Villiers,is nie net nog ’n lawwe vakansiestorie nie,maar het ’n sterk storielyn vol intrige.”

Draaiboekskrywer Tiaan van Niekerk (31)het eers teologie studeer voordat hy ’n diplo-ma in filmvervaardiging voltooi het. Die Prois sy eerste draaiboek.

“Ek het die boek in 1999 gekoop omdat diehoofkarakter dieselfde naam as ek het. Dit hetdadelik tot my gespreek,” vertel hy.

“As jy skryf het jy ’n sekere prentjie in joukop, maar wanneer dit by verfilming kom,moet daar noodgedwonge aanpassings ge-maak word. Jy moet die regisseur vertrou dat

hy jou visie sal deurvoer.”Heelwat aanpassings is vir die draaiboek

gemaak. Van die manlike karakters is vroulikgemaak en sommige is uitgeskryf.

“Die boodskap wat die film oordra, is spesi-aal: al ervaar jy verlies moet jy dit leer aan-vaar, weer opstaan en aangaan. Ek is opge-wonde om te sien hoe alles bymekaarkom,”sê Van Niekerk.

André Velts, die regisseur, het onlangs dieregie van die film, Knysna, behartig.

“Die Pro is die eerste Afrikaanse tiener‘surf-drama’ wat oud en jonk sal geniet,” sê hy.“Almal hanteer verlies en die dood op hul eiemanier. Sodra jy dit besef, is dié film uniek.”

StorieDie fliek gaan oor ’n sestienjarige tiener, Ti-aan Nothnagel (Edwin van der Walt) wat inVlakberg woon en ’n kranige branderplank-ryer is.

Sy beste vriend, Dirkie Lawrence (ViljéMaritz) wat altyd saam met hom die brandersaangedurf sterf skielik en Tiaan moet leer omdie tragedie te verwerk.

Ná Dirkie se dood belowe Tiaan homself omnooit weer branderplank te ry nie omdat daarte veel herinneringe vir hom daaraan kleef.

Dan keer Dirkie se tweelingsussie, Yvette(Reine Swart) - wat die vorige jaar ná hul ou-ers se egskeiding by haar en Dirkie se pa gaanwoon het) terug Vlakberg toe met een doelvoor oë, sy wil gekies word vir Wave-Seekers,’n fiktiewe wêreldwye “surf-toer”.

Dit was ook eens Tiaan en Dirkie se droomom daaraan deel te neem.

Om te kan slaag het Yvette Tiaan se hulpnodig en dit is waar dié dramatiese storie ver-der ontvou.) Vir meer foto’s, besoek ons webtuiste Kou-ga Express en kliek op Gallery/ Photo Gal-lery/ General/ Die Pro.
