On Monday, 11 August, the team could be seen filling up potholes, a gesture that brought hope to regular road users.

In die geval van Wilhelm Willemse (78) is bloedskenk in sy bloed. Oom Wilhelm skenk al vir 58 jaar lank bloed, en vir die van ons wat nog nie eers dié ouderdom bereik het nie, klink dit soos 'n leeftyd - en dit is!

RUSTENBURG HERALD - RUSTENBURG - Hoewel vroue as die skoner geslag bekend staan, is dit tog soms nodig om ‘n paar ekstra wenke in ons arsenaal van poeiers, roompies en maskaras bymekaar te maak.
Só het Hannon Bothma (wat faam verwerf het as Suid-Afrika se eie Glam Guru) en sy span van dinamiese vroue sy Makeover Roadshow na die Platinastad gebring op Saterdag, 26 Julie, by Brauhaus Afrika.

Twaalf pragtige en entoesiastiese dogters was vroegoggend gereed om te leer hekel, decoupage, macramè en kralewerk te doen. So tussen die heerlik eet, baie lag, bietjie sukkel (veral by die hekelstasie) deur is daar oorbelle, raampies, armbande, feetjies en engeltjies opgetower. 

RUSTENBURG HERALD - RUSTENBURG - Ons lewe in ‘n tyd en ‘n land waar gesinsgeweld bykans aan die orde van die dag is - egter, laat dié tipe trauma lewenslange letsels wat sommiges “laat gaan lê in ‘n hopelose hopie” of ander laat “baklei soos ‘n pit bull.”
Hierdie is aldus Petro Kotze-Odendaal, wat onlangs haar eerste boek die lig laat sien het - “Wanneer die krieke stil word”. Petro, wat aan die hand van ‘n alkoholis-pa grootgeword het en toe ook ‘n huwelik vasgevang was met fisiese geweld en verbale misbruik, sê sy val in die tweede kategorie en is ‘n lewende bewys dat traumaleiers wel, deur “harde baklei”, tóg bo kan uitkom.
