Ingredients<br />
4 pork loin steaks of about 1 cm thick<br />
1 egg beaten<br />
250 ml breadcrumbs, fresh or toasted<br />
250 ml flour<br />
Salt and pepper<br />
Combination of olive oil and butter for frying<br />
Mustard and fresh lemon slices for serving<br />
Method<br />
Place the pork steaks on a flat surface, get a rolling pin, wine<br />
bottle or anything with enough weight. Use cling wrap and<br />
place a layer on top of the meat to protect them and keep<br />
them intact while you hit them with your rolling pin, flattening<br />
the steaks and making them even all over.<br />
Now construct your work station. Season the flour with salt<br />
and pepper and place in a flat bowl. Place the beaten egg in<br />
another bowl and the breadcrumbs in a bowl. Start to coat<br />
your steaks by first rolling them around in the seasoned flour,<br />
then dip them in the egg and lastly cover the steaks with<br />
breadcrumbs making sure everything is covered.<br />
Heat a combination of oil and butter in your pan and fry the<br />
steaks for 2 to 3 minutes turning often making sure it does not<br />
burn. The steaks are thin hence they will be done very quickly.<br />
Remove from the heat and serve this work of art dish with<br />
mustard, fresh lemons and a side dish of potato salad.<br />
Wrong Detergent<br />
A young boy, about eight years old,<br />
was at the corner "Mom and Pop"<br />
grocery picking out a pretty good<br />
size box of laundry detergent. The<br />
grocer walked over, and, trying to<br />
be friendly, asked the boy if he had<br />
a lot of laundry to do.<br />
"Oh, no laundry," the boy said, "I'm<br />
going to wash my dog."<br />
"But you shouldn't use this to wash<br />
your dog. It's very powerful and if<br />
you wash your dog in this, he'll get<br />
sick. In fact, it might even kill him."<br />
But the boy was not to be stopped<br />
and carried the detergent to the<br />
counter and paid for it, even as the<br />
grocer still tried to talk him out of<br />
washing his dog.<br />
About a week later the boy was back<br />
in the store to buy some candy. The<br />
grocer asked the boy how his dog<br />
was doing. "Oh, he died," the boy<br />
said.<br />
The grocer, trying not to be an "Itold-you-so",<br />
said he was sorry the<br />
dog died but added, "I tried to tell<br />
you not to use that detergent on<br />
your dog."<br />
"Well, the boy replied, "I don't think<br />
it was the detergent that killed him."<br />
"Oh? What was it then?"<br />
"I think it was the spin cycle!"
FRIDAY 3 FEBRUARY <strong>2017</strong> THE <strong>BUGLE</strong> 3<br />

over of Charter in Grahamstown<br />
ALMOST two years of hard<br />
work, planning, recruiting and<br />
endless trips to and from<br />
Grahamstown for Lion<br />
Russell Volker reached a<br />
climax last Saturday with the<br />
handing over of the Charter of<br />
the new Grahamstown Lions<br />

Charter President, Lion Justin<br />
du Plooy, and the charter<br />
members at a formal dinner<br />

Governors, celebrates 30<br />
years of membership in the<br />
King William’s Town Lions<br />
Club this year and his passion<br />
and enthusiasm, arguably<br />
greater as each year passes,<br />
led to this memorable<br />
occasion.<br />
'This was made possible<br />
through the support of my<br />
Club,' Volker said when<br />
recognised and awarded by<br />
District Governor Zwaai<br />
Krűger, 'and particularly<br />
through the support and<br />
assistance of my wife, Pat,<br />
who travelled with me to all<br />
the meetings and the late<br />
nights driving home.'<br />
Grahamstown Lion<br />
President Justin du Plooy<br />
was inducted by his father,<br />
Past District Governor Ivan<br />
du Plooy who travelled with<br />
Justin’s mother, 2nd Vice<br />
District Governor Peggy du<br />
Plooy, from Krugersdorp for<br />
the proud occasion.<br />
President Justin affirmed<br />
the desire and willingness<br />
of the Grahamstown Lions<br />
to serve those in need in<br />
their community, something<br />
that they have already<br />
started and they have great<br />
excitement for much more.<br />

SANRAL assures that road construction in King is on schedule<br />
SAD SITE: The current state of Grey Street is reflected in this picture.<br />
IN a statement issued this week by<br />
SANRAL the construction work on<br />
roads in and around King William's<br />
Town are on schedule.<br />
Rehabilitation of roads include setions<br />
of Cathcart Street, Buffalo Road; Grey<br />
Street, Alexandra Road and the<br />
intersection at Hargreaves Avenue<br />
where a roundabout is currently under<br />
construction and Maitland Road to<br />
Bhisho and include improvements to<br />
drainage, road repairs, and new<br />
surfacing on the said routes.<br />
'SANRAL would like to confirm<br />
that construction on the National<br />
Route N2 section 15 from Buffalo<br />
River to Breidbach intersection and<br />
National Route R63 from Alexandra<br />
road to Bhisho is still on schedule,' the<br />
statement said.<br />
A localized delay has occurred in Grey<br />
Street due to the position and type of<br />
existing services, the details of which<br />
were unknown due to the age of the<br />
services,' said the statement.<br />
It was expected that the Grey Street<br />
upgrade would be completed by the<br />
end of February<br />
'An unexpected amount of rock was<br />
also encountered during excavations.<br />
The current expected date of completion<br />
for Grey Street is therefore<br />
Friday, 30 June <strong>2017</strong>.'<br />
The first phase of the Hargreaves<br />
roundabout is expected to be completed<br />
by the middle of next month.<br />
This will result in Hargreaves Avenue<br />
being partially opened to traffic<br />
travelling from East London and for<br />
vehicles travelling from Hargreaves<br />
Road to King Williams Town only.<br />
'However, the current restrictions will<br />
be re-introduced for a short period<br />
of time during the final surfacing of<br />
the road,' the statement added.<br />
Rehabilitation work in Alexandra and<br />
Maitland Streets, which will result in<br />
selective closures, commenced on<br />
Monday (30 January <strong>2017</strong>).<br />
Motorists are advised to be observant<br />
of all advance warning signs<br />
and lane closures, and should<br />
exercise caution when travelling<br />
through the construction work zones.<br />
The speed limits are in place and will<br />
be enforced.<br />
The work is due for completion by end of<br />
November <strong>2017</strong>.<br />
Despite SANRAL'S assurances that the<br />
roadworks in King is on schedule, with the<br />
exception of Grey Street, it has still left a<br />
bitter taste in many motorists mouths.<br />
“What are they going to do about the side<br />
streets that are falling apart due to the heavy<br />
traffic that motorists using altenative routes<br />
are causing,' questioned one Kingite.<br />
A local businessman whose business has<br />
been seriously affected by the closure of<br />
Grey Street said: 'If I stood at my front door<br />
and saw people working I would feel<br />
happier....but little seems to be happening<br />
and I wonder if the new finishing date 'will<br />
ever come....probably after I have been<br />
forced to close my doors.'<br />
SANRAL is aware of all the grievances and<br />
apologizes for any inconvenience caused.<br />

KHS coach remarked:' The<br />
team competed against 4<br />
schools out of the 20 attending<br />
and emerged victorious in all<br />
their encounters'.<br />
She added: 'The girls acquitted<br />
themselves with élan and<br />
aplomb, using their years of<br />
experience to telling effect, to<br />
vanquish all before them'<br />
A litmus test to their expertise<br />
is that three of the team, Mlibo<br />
Bangushe, Sibulele Nobuzana<br />
and Asiphe Ngceletshane,<br />
were awarded Best Speaker<br />

Motor Mecca donates<br />
to KWT SPCA<br />
BIKE GIVERS: Members of the Moto Mecca Motorcycling club at Pirates<br />
where they donated proceeds to the King SPCA after celebrating their<br />
20th Anniversary at the club in November last year<br />
THE Motor Mecca Motorcyling<br />
Club (MCC) based in<br />
East London made a much<br />
needed to donation to the<br />
King SPCA at Pirates Club at<br />
the weekend.<br />
Included in the items handed<br />
over were 7 blankets, 25<br />
litres of white paint, 2 industrial<br />
brooms, 30 litres of detergent<br />
cleanser and to top it all<br />
a cash donation of R5 000.<br />
MCC President Cameron<br />
Sweetman said the cash<br />
would be deposited into the<br />
SPCA account on Monday.<br />
He said the items and cash<br />
were raised at MCC's 20 th<br />
'Sleep Over' Anniversary function<br />
held at Pirates last November.<br />
“The event was well attended<br />
with 250 motor bikes going<br />
through the gate and despite<br />
some 'heavy' rain on the Saturday<br />
evening 'most stayed<br />
on and had a great evenings<br />
entertainment,' said Sweet<br />
man.<br />
He said the King SPCA had<br />
been earmarked for the proceeds<br />
for tis years which is<br />
held every five years.<br />
“Next time we will choose another<br />
charitable organisation<br />
to benefit,' he said.<br />
Motor Mecca previously donated<br />
dog food to the King<br />
SPCA as a 'starter' before the<br />
anniversary creationisms.<br />
“We feel good that we have<br />
done something for the cashstrapped<br />
SPCA because it is<br />
a role model and we hope<br />
our donation goes some way<br />
to alleviate the institutions<br />
financial plight,'<br />
SPCA Chairperson Annette<br />
Rademeyer said;” We are<br />
very grateful for their support.<br />
The money they are donating<br />
they want to pay off on our<br />
drug bill so that will be done<br />
as soon as it is received. It<br />
will help a lot.<br />
'With winter coming up blankets<br />
are always needed and<br />
something that very few people<br />
think about are cleaning<br />
materials. We go through<br />
litres of the stuff especially jik<br />
and anti bacterial stuff.<br />
'We get parvo and other diseases<br />
into the building and<br />
we have to be careful to kill<br />
the germs so they don’t<br />
spread.<br />
'Cleaning materials cost a lot<br />
of money and you can never<br />
have enough. So thank you<br />
so much guys for all your<br />
effort – not just yesterday’s<br />
donation but also the dog<br />
food you gave us last time,'<br />
concluded Annette.<br />

Dinner Date<br />
The homeowner was delighted with<br />
the way the painter had done all the<br />
work on his house. "You did a great<br />
job." he said and handed the man a<br />
check. "Also, in order to thank-you,<br />
here's an extra $80 to take the<br />
missus out to dinner and a movie."<br />
Later that night, the doorbell rang<br />
and it was the painter. Thinking the<br />
man had forgotten something he<br />
asked, "What's the matter, did you<br />
forget something?"<br />
"Nope." replied the painter. "I'm just<br />
here to take your missus out to<br />
dinner and a movie like you asked."<br />
The Wrong Way<br />
As a senior citizen was driving down<br />
the freeway, his car phone rang.<br />
Answering, he heard his wife's voice<br />
urgently warning him, "Herman, I<br />
just heard on the news that there's a<br />
car going the wrong way on<br />
Highway 401. Please be careful!"<br />
"Darnl," said Herman, "It's not just<br />
one car. It's hundreds of them!"

Corola just gets better with time<br />
TO celebrate 50 years of great<br />
heritage, Toyota kicks off the<br />
New Year with a sleeker model<br />
to augment the model’s iconic<br />
status<br />
One of the most difficult questions<br />
to answer in the automotive<br />
industry is, what makes a<br />
really great car?<br />
The consensus on the topic is<br />
as elusive as flying saucers.<br />
But we would put the Toyota<br />
Corolla forward as one of the<br />
best nameplates ever manufactured.<br />
There are many reasons<br />
this is a car we are proud<br />
of.<br />

enough time to perfect the Corolla<br />
recipe.<br />
When it launched in 1966, Toyota<br />
certainly had high hopes<br />
that the Corolla was going to<br />
be a great success.<br />
Suffice to say, in just three<br />
years, the Corolla became<br />
Japan’s top-selling model.<br />
The success quickly spread to<br />
other countries around the<br />
world, and the rest is history.<br />
The new Corolla upgrades include<br />
exterior front- and rearend<br />
refreshments and enhanced<br />
interior modifications<br />
to give it a classier feel. The<br />
design is further accentuated<br />
by the LEDs (Exclusive models).<br />
To improve passive safety,<br />
both VSC and HAC have become<br />
standard on 1.6 models<br />
and above.<br />
Inside, the instrument panel<br />
has been updated with a layered<br />
structure that hides joins,<br />
along with a redesigned climate<br />
control panel and circular<br />
air vents.Audio Touch<br />
Screen/DVD increased from<br />
6.1” to 7” (Prestige models).<br />
The engine line-up remains<br />
unchanged, featuring a choice<br />
of a 1.4 litre D-4D turbodiesel<br />
and three petrol engines; a<br />
1.3-litre Dual VVT-i unit, a 1.6-<br />
litre Dual VVT-i engine and the<br />
1.8-litre Dual VVT-i unit.<br />
Revised tuning of the CVT<br />
transmission delivers shifts<br />
that are quicker, crisper and<br />
smoother with better matching<br />
to engine speed.<br />
The front MacPherson strut<br />
and rear torsion-beam suspension<br />
systems adopt larger-diameter<br />
shock absorbers to<br />
enhance damping force for an<br />
improved balance between<br />
ride comfort and handling stability.<br />
Other changes that reduce<br />
noise, vibration and harshness<br />
include beading on the<br />
front fender liner to reduce<br />
turbulence inside the wheel<br />
housing, a thicker inner silencer<br />
for the dash panel and a<br />
denser material for the floor<br />
insulation.<br />
The 1.3-litre petrol engine is<br />
equipped with Dual Variable<br />
Valve Timing-intelligent (Dual<br />
VVT-i) and a high compression<br />
ratio of 11.5:1, which increases<br />
the thermal efficiency<br />
of the engine. It generates<br />
73kW at 6000rpm and maximum<br />
torque of 128Nm at<br />
3800rpm.<br />
Dual VVT-i helps boost response<br />
levels across the entire<br />
rev range by varying the<br />
air-fuel intake and exhaust<br />
valve timing to suit the conditions<br />
at any given time. In<br />
addition to improving torque<br />
at low and medium engine<br />
speeds, the system also reduces<br />
emissions and enhances<br />
fuel efficiency.<br />
Available with either a sixspeed<br />
manual or Multidrive S<br />
automatic (CVT) transmission<br />
and also benefitting from the<br />
Dual Variable Valve Timingintelligent<br />
(Dual VVT-i) technology<br />
described above, the<br />
1.6 litre Dual VVT-i petrol engine<br />
develops 90kW at<br />
6000rpm and a maximum<br />
torque of 154Nm at only<br />
5200rpm.<br />
The 1.8-litre petrol engine is<br />
fitted to top-end Corolla models.<br />
Benefitting from the Dual<br />
Variable Valve Timing-intelligent<br />
(Dual VVT-i) technology<br />
described above, the 1.8-litre,<br />
16V, DOHC Dual VVT-i petrol<br />
engine develops 1<strong>03</strong>kW at<br />
6400rpm, and a maximum<br />
torque of 173Nm at<br />
4000rpm.;;;

HELPING HAND<br />
SCHOOLBAG PROJECT<br />
The Helping Hand Schoolbag<br />
project has once again aided<br />
needy pupils in starting their<br />
big Grade 1 adventure.<br />
The project, established 10<br />
years ago in 2007, has since<br />
assisted more than 30000<br />
pupils in need by providing<br />
them with stationery supplies<br />
and schoolbags every year.<br />
This year, 4600 schoolbags<br />
with essential stationery supplies<br />
will be handed over to<br />
Grade 1 pupils across the<br />
country.<br />
“Children are the bank which<br />
we invest in,” Helping Hand<br />
Executive Director, Danie<br />
Brink, said.<br />
“Our interest is in their successful<br />
futures as doctors,<br />
teachers and leaders of our<br />
country.<br />
“The project plays a vital role<br />
in the lives of these youngsters<br />
because with such a<br />
bag they can start their<br />
schooling on an equal footing<br />
with their peers,” he said.<br />
Helping Hand, founded in<br />
1949, has been working to<br />
break the cycle of poverty in<br />
South Africa for more than<br />
60 years.<br />
According to Brink, the foundations<br />
for a successful future<br />
are created early on in<br />
a child’s schooling career.<br />
In the Eastern Cape, 448<br />
bags were distributed to<br />
young pupils this year, 45 of<br />
which were handed over to<br />
East London pupils.<br />
“We come year after year and<br />
there is always a greater<br />
need,” East London Helping<br />
Hand regional representative,<br />
Marlene Basson, said.<br />
“We know the bags are making<br />
a difference in their lives<br />
because we see the joy on<br />
their faces when they get<br />
their own bag.”<br />

The Ugly Baby<br />
A woman got on a bus holding a baby.<br />
The bus driver said: "That's the ugliest<br />
baby I've ever seen." In a huff, the<br />
woman slammed her fare into the fare<br />
box and took an aisle seat near the<br />
rear of the bus.<br />
The man seated next to her sensed<br />
that she was agitated and asked her<br />
what was wrong.<br />
"The bus driver insulted me," she<br />
fumed.<br />
The man sympathized and said: "Why,<br />
he's a public servant and shouldn't<br />
say things to insult passengers."<br />
"You're right," she said. "I think I'll go<br />
back up there and give him a piece of<br />
my mind."<br />
"That's a good idea," the man said.<br />
"Here, let me hold your monkey."<br />
Road Trip<br />
One afternoon, this guy drives down a<br />
highway to visit a nearby lake and<br />
relax. On his way to the lake, a guy<br />
dressed from head to toe in red<br />
standing on the side of the highway<br />
gestures for him to stop.<br />
The guy rolls down the window and<br />
With a smile on his face, the guy<br />
hands a sandwich to the guy in red<br />
and drives away. Not even five<br />
minutes later, he comes across<br />
another guy. This guy is dressed fully<br />
in yellow, standing on the side of the<br />
road and waving for him to stop.<br />
A bit irritated, our guy stops, cranks<br />
down the window, and says, "What<br />
can I do for you?"<br />
"I am the yellow jerk of the highway.<br />
You got something to drink?"<br />
Hardly managing to smile this time, he<br />
hands the guy a can of Coke and<br />
stomps on the pedal and takes off<br />
again. In order to make it to the<br />
lakeside before sunset, he decides to<br />
go faster and not to stop no matter<br />
what.<br />
To his frustration, he sees another guy<br />
on the side of the road, this one<br />
dressed in blue and signaling for him<br />
to stop. Reluctantly, our guy decides<br />
to stop one last time. He rolls down his<br />
window, and yells, "Let me guess.<br />
You're the blue jerk of the highway,<br />
and just what the heck do you wanna<br />
have?"<br />
says, "How can I help you?"<br />
"I am the red jerk of the highway. You<br />
got something to eat?"<br />

please."<br />

SPORTY STUFF<br />
Well, the Australian Tennis<br />
Open is done and dusted, but<br />
not without some controversy<br />
supplied, as usual, by the<br />
rising and troubled star Australian<br />
player, Nick Kygiros.<br />
He was was booed off the<br />
court by his home crowd for<br />
squandering a two set lead<br />
over Italy's Andrea Seppi and<br />
losing in the 5 th set...and, not<br />
without some tantrums<br />
thrown in for good measure.<br />
The local press took him to<br />
task with one paper headlined<br />
“Nick off” - which, according<br />
to our news service<br />
is Australian slang which<br />
means “to leave” !!!??<br />
...mmmm, it's just as well the<br />
match was not played in<br />
Bloemfontein where the<br />
morning papers' headline<br />
would have read “Neek<br />

AMERICAN TRUMP-ET<br />
Has anybody attempted to<br />
tell the new American president<br />
that the entire United<br />
States population is made by<br />
migrants – something that<br />
has been ongoing for the last<br />
400 years ? Anyway, what<br />
with all the anger, frustration<br />
and protest that some of his<br />
recent decisions have created,<br />
this one came up the other<br />
day - if you have heard it,<br />
please forgive the writer.... If<br />
Donald Trump was on a visit<br />
to Disney world and someone<br />
tries to shoot him, would<br />
his security guards shout<br />
“Donald duck” ??<br />

AND FINALLY<br />
“in my next life I want to become<br />
a Doctor. However, instead<br />
of doing the first few<br />
years of compulsory stuff<br />
such as physiology, pharmacology,<br />
etc, I am going to<br />
save money by working as a<br />
barman at The Ritz. Here is<br />
the perfect proving ground<br />
for aspirant G P's where your<br />
can learn EVERYTHING<br />
about medication, piles, gout,<br />
arthritis, blood pressure and<br />
all the other ailments that<br />
plague people who have<br />
passed their use by/sell by<br />
date ...and, the bonus is that,<br />
after two years, you will<br />
“graduate “ as a qualified barman,<br />
skip three years of university,<br />
and, go straight<br />
through to do your housemanship<br />

Dead Legs!<br />
MANY runners often experience what is commonly called<br />
“dead legs “.<br />
This phenomenon has no scientific word or explanation.<br />
Strangely enough in my experience this phase in ones training<br />
usually precedes bouts of superb running so don’t PAN-<br />
IC. It will pass.<br />
This feeling of having “dead “or heavy legs is normally attributed<br />
to over training, doing too much hill work or too much<br />
leg work in the gym.<br />
A short break will sort it out in no time!<br />
Conversely, however, if you are training for Comrades it is<br />
advisable to push through this phase as it will stand you in<br />
good stead for race day. As long as you have no injury niggles<br />
this is merely another step in your training.<br />
Yours in fitness<br />

SPORTS BEAT<br />
Kingites fare well at<br />
70.3 Half Ironman<br />
ON THE<br />
MOVE:<br />
Mike Webb IN<br />
ACTION<br />
during the<br />
21.1 km run<br />
while<br />
competing in<br />
the 70.3<br />
Ironman<br />
TWO local athletes participated<br />
in this past Sundays 70.3<br />
Half Ironman event in East<br />
London and both fared exceptionallly<br />
well<br />
The event was a huge success<br />
with over 2800 athletes<br />
participating in near perfect<br />
weather, which was a huge<br />
relief considering the storms<br />
and sea conditions of Friday<br />
and Saturday.<br />
The course consisted of a 1.9<br />
km swim from Orient beach,<br />
a 90 km Cycle ride (Berlin<br />
and back) and a 21.1 km run.<br />
Shaun Gradwell, who resides<br />
in East London, but works at<br />
KWT Engineering (so qualifies<br />
as a local) did his first<br />
Half Ironman and completed<br />
the event in 7 hrs 54 minutes<br />
Shaun only decided to give<br />
the Half Ironman a bash late<br />
last year and has had to put<br />
in many early mornings on<br />
the bike in order to get prepared.<br />
The hard work paid off<br />
on Sunday<br />
The run leg proved to be the<br />
toughest stretch for Shaun as<br />
it did for many athletes due to<br />
a combination of a 1.9 km<br />
swim, a 90 km cycle and<br />
some decent heat.<br />
However, with superb support<br />
along the route, Shaun<br />
dug deep and pushed<br />
through to the magic Red<br />
Carpet.<br />
I believe he is now contemplating<br />
doing the Full Ironman<br />
in April .<br />
The other local athlete participating,<br />
Mike Webb was doing<br />
his second 70.3 and is no<br />
stranger to endurance events<br />
and had a near perfect day<br />
out.<br />
Although his swim was a few<br />
minutes slower than last year<br />
Mike pushed hard on the way<br />
back from Berlin on the bike<br />
leg and managed to take ten<br />
minutes off his previous time.<br />
The run section of 21.1 kms<br />
is always the toughest as the<br />
legs are a bit “wobbly “ but as<br />
a seasoned runner this was<br />
Mikes best section of the day<br />
and the heat didn’t bother<br />
him as much as it did other<br />
runners . (December heat<br />
training paid off).<br />
He managed to take off 26<br />
minutes off his previous run<br />
time finishing the 21.1 kms in<br />
a time of 1 hr 45 minutes.<br />
This enabled him to finish in<br />
a total time of 6 hrs <strong>02</strong> minutes,<br />
an improvement of 33<br />
minutes from last year.<br />
Mike is now preparing for the<br />
Buffs Marathon (end of Feb)<br />
and then the full Ironman in<br />
April followed by The Hobbit<br />
100 km trail run and Comrades<br />
to finish off the first half<br />
of the year.<br />
Well done to both Mike and<br />
Shaun and to all the organizers<br />
on a superb event .<br />
