I too was very interested in "Through the Eyes of a Young Woman" posted by
Dirk du Plooy. Particularly the reference to the fact that "Mermaid's Pool"
was one of the farms given to her father by Cecil John Rhodes.

I was born in Salisbury in 1941, and many of the family day jaunts in my
early youth, were to these pools. I have in my home some 8mm cine films
taken at the pools at this time.

Can anyone tell me what has become of these pools?
