Reply to Boet's "Gutsy Lady"
It is now Monday 8H00 and I'm pleased to inform everybody that I have at least 70 signatures in our campaign to prevent the crusher site development and I still have more signatures to collect. Either I am very lucky or very many people don't want this to go ahead.

Crusher site
Ciarra
The petition to stop this housing is development in the crusher site is most welcome.
I was unaware that the stands were already on the market for sale and I would not be interested in one for investment or otherwise. A few years ago I read a Geotech report on the crusher site which plainly stated that the ground is "unstable". I'm willing to bet that this is not being told to prospective buyers or any of the other problems and I can understand why . But it does lack ethics on the part of the seller.
I was one of the first to buy into the Eco Estate about a year after the initial major sale and was totally in love with the concept. My wife and I drove around the area with the estate agent and saw the size of the area within the fence. What a shock to us that we NOW only discover that the estate is far from the size that we thought it was. There is a large area in the North of the estate but is still within the fenced area that DOES not belong to our Eco Estate and therefor us members. Why then was or is the estate's true size marked with a fence or at the very least told to us in the first place? This is intentional deception to give an untrue sales pitch of what we have all bought into. Effectively our estate has shrunk by about 1 500 000 square metres and we thought that the estate was ALL the area within the fence. Were we foolish to believe them in the first place or should we have gone to the council offices and studied the plans of the area demanding to know who owns what size of ground. NO, the trouble is 99.99% of us trust in human integrity-----foolishly obviously.
Show a man a car for sale and when his payment is made and the ownership is changed, then give him the vehicle without the wheels and seats --- a poor comparison but you get the idea.

Welcome waste of money
So I hear the trustees are considering building a 'Welcome centre' for visitors at a estimate of R3 million or so. What a bloody waste of our money with far more important issues. Who dreams up this ***?
There are important issues but I'll give you a list of few very unimportant stupid issues that the trustees are throwing their toys out of their cots about.
a] Palisade fencing onto the veldt must be erected - why? Does it annoy anyone apart from them -no! If people don't want that extra security or animals eating their plants, so what, who cares.
b] Burgler bars must be remove. Who cares if some want their houses to look like Pretoria Central prison even if their reasons are good for having them.
c] Non indigenous plants. The veldt has plenty that should be sorted out before even considering k** like this again, who really cares where they come from.
d] Insect friendly lights. Have you ever heard of such stupid *** in your life, it is ignored anyway. There is not a house in the place that has not got at least one can of insect killer.
I don't know who dreamed up all this over the top indigenous ***. If they wanted to do it totally correct they should have said that only indigenous people from south of the Sahara desert who are black can live here.
Sometimes we see a chopper flying in and out. Oh sorry, that is not a chopper, that is a indigenous giant ********* dragon fly that eats or spits out people? It has a good choice of food even if it spits some out - must taste bad.
Catch a wake up. At the start of all board meetings they should all give each other a few good slaps round the head to bring them back to the real sensible world.

Stop complaining anonymously
Hi Ciarra
I really hope that the next meeting won't be a circus like the previous meeting.
A lot of residents are complaining anonymously about the board.
A few comments -
Anonymous. That is the main problem we have. Everybody is complaining but isn't getting involved to sort our the issues.
Get nominated and get involved in management.
This is most probably the same people that are complaining about everything during the meetings, wasting everybody's time without trying to add value. (Like the guy that is always sitting at the back of the hall).
Most probably the same people that is complaining about security issues but refused to open their cars for a security search.
Or refused to do a Polygraph test on their domestics.
Etc, etc, etc ..........
The majority of the residents must be successful business people for obvious reasons, why can't we then work together as a team to resolve the issues.
It's time to move on. Everybody is busy and don't have time for bulls**t
after hours.

Board members not standing again
I have received word that the following board members are not available for re-election at the moment: Ryan Annandale and Dr George Varughese.
I just want to take this opportunity to thank these two board members for the positive contributions they made to the board in the past. A thankless job as we all know.
