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 />

Volkers hard work pays off with handing<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 />

Club and the induction of its<br />

Charter President, Lion Justin<br />

du Plooy, and the charter<br />

members at a formal dinner<br />

held at the beautiful Mountain<br />

View Manor, overlooking the<br />

historic city of Grahamstown.<br />

Apart from Volker and his<br />

partner in service, Lions Lady<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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

Phawk Awf”, which is Free<br />

State slang meaning...(ja,<br />

boet, you guessed it).... “to<br />

leave ???<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 />

“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 />

save money by working as a<br />

barman at The Ritz. Here is<br />

about medication, piles, gout,<br />

arthritis, blood pressure and<br />

all the other ailments that<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 />
