BUCKLE UP YOUR KIDS BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE

I CAN only agree with Gavin Kirchoff regarding “buckle up your kids”. It drives me nuts when I see kids standing on front or back seats and l have also been told to f*** off more than once. I am sure there have been cases when kids were not buckled up and lost their lives – so parents, buckle up your kids and don’t say it will never happen to you. Wake up before it is too late.

LET THE BEST FOUR REMAIN IN SUPER 15

UNLIKE Joel Stransky, who wants the Kings out of Super Rugby, Naas Botha has come up with an excellent, and common-sense, suggestion. Let all our franchises play each other in a mini-tournament and the best four stay in Super 15 next year. Great idea Naas. Hope Saru takes note.

WHICH BANKS ARE CHARGING FOR SASSA?

CAN you please tell us which banks’ ATMs are charging Sassa pensioners R29 to draw their meagre pensions? If this is true.

PLEASE GIVE BACK EXERCISE EQUIPMENT

MAY I respectfully ask – no, beg – our municipality to please replace as soon as possible the exercise equipment which was removed from Hobie Beach in preparation for the Ironman? We, and there are many of all races and ages who used that equipment on a regular basis, feel its absence acutely. Surely a small space can be found . . . and, in fact, there are plenty of such spaces. Please, council, a quick replacement of what you first gave us will be so appreciated.

GIVE PENSIONERS A RATES BREAK

WHY can’t it be a law in ALL metros across South Africa that all pensioners over 60 qualify for at least a 50% rates rebate?
