Saturday Morning in BridgeTown
The Upper section of Bridge Town Had no electricity due to upgrading. We at Rlabs then went out in the community to interview some of the residents. Our first interview was with Grant the Panel Beater in Cornflower Street whose premises are at the garage . He had a very quiet morning as he said that business is very slow, probably a good sign as that means there are not many accidents. His business is very slack at the moment and is battling to make ends meet. Ironically while we were talking to him a car pulled up at the garage with such speed and went into the wall.That I am sure must have been an answer to prayers another job for him.
We then proceeded to Kalkoen Weg where we asked various people about their activities for the day as seeing there were no electricity. It was good to see the children riding their bicycles and playing games outside showing the life and vibrancy of the community. We were very impressed with the houses in Vink Weg. It was like walking in a quiet suburb in Newlands with big trees on either side of the street. One can see the pride and competition in that road. I really think that they should win an award for their road and thereby encouraging other residenst to be proud of their homes and environment.
We then went to the S.P.C.A and interviewed some folks there. I was amazed at the amount of people who brought their animals to from afar as Kuils River, Strandfontein etc. One can be proud of the stirling work done by our Vets and the high standard they maintain at a minimal fee. You rock SPCA.
Walking back from the SPCA it was very depressing to see a rubbish dump which really put a damper on our spirit. It is sad that the residents there would allow such filth to be dumped opposite their home.
Being an ex Bridgetownian I am very proud of our township.
