Akumgama oziikhilomitha ezingama-20 njengoko unomyayi ebhabha eDarwen eLancashire usiya eBlackpool. Phezulu kwi-moor ngaphezulu kwedolophu endala yokugaya i-Darwen Tower, indawo engamamitha angama-85 ubude yeVictorian eyakhiwe ngeebhloko eziqinileyo zelitye lentlabathi elinde oko abantu bakubiza ngokuba yi-Happy Valley. Ngomhla olungileyo, xa isibhakabhaka sicacile, ungabona iBlackpool Tower iqaqamba elangeni elunxwemeni.
Isibhengezo
Njengokufika kweempawu, ezi nqaba zimbini zikwiiligi ezahlukeneyo, kodwa xa uZoë Ball emka kulwandle lweBlackpool kwiiveki ezimbini ezidlulileyo kuhambo lwakhe lwebhayisikile lweMidlalo yoNcedo lwe-350-mile, ngewayemkhangele uDarwen elundini kwaye iingcinga zakhe ngeza kujika isoka lakhe, uBilly Yates.
- Uncedo lwezeMidlalo ngo-2018: yonke into ekufuneka uyazi
- UGreg James ugqibezela umceli mngeni woNcedo lwezeMidlalo
- I-BBC kunye ne-ITV abadumileyo baya kwintloko yoNcedo lwezeMidlalo u-2018
Ndiyayazi intlungu awayekuyo, utyhila kwincwadi eyodwa ye-BBC1 ngolwesiThathu ngokuhlwa. Wayengenakuqonda ukuba kwenzeka ntoni kuye. Yayingathi kukutshintsha kokukhanya, wawuzibona iintlungu zisiza kuye. Ubufuna ukuthi, ‘Yiza. Hlala nam, hlala nam. Masikukhuphe kule ndawo yentloko. ’Kodwa bekunzima kwaye kunzima ukuyenza loo nto.
Kwiphulo lakhe lokuqonda isigulo esasicinezela isithandwa sakhe - kunye nokwazisa ngempilo yengqondo - wabhalisela umceli mngeni wokukhwela ibhayisikile, nokuyenye yeembalasane zenkqubo yoNcedo lwezeMidlalo ngoLwesihlanu. Ukuhamba usuka eBlackpool usiya eBrighton akunantsingiselo kumkhweli webhayisikile ye-novice (ayisiyiyo, njengoko abaqhuli besitsho, konke ukwehla). Kodwa emva koko iZoë ayisiyonto ukuba ayiqinisekiswanga. Xa ndilahlekelwe nguBilly ndifuna ukwenza into, kwaye ndaziva ngeqonga lam kukho ithuba lokunceda.
UBilly khange andixelele ngokudakumba kwakhe kwasekuqaleni, kuxa usiya umazi umntu kuphela abelana ngezinto ezinjalo. Nasiphi na esinye isigulo kwaye uphumle emsebenzini, kodwa kuninzi ukubekwa amabala malunga nokugula ngengqondo. Kuyothusa ukuthetha ngayo. Abantu abasokolayo abafuni kuvelana. Nangona khange ndothuke xa ekugqibeleni endixelele. Ndabona ukuba kukho usizi. Ndizamile ngako konke okusemandleni ukunceda. Kodwa xa ndijonga emva ndicinga, ‘Andiqinisekanga ukuba ndenze into elungileyo.

Ke, ngewayenze ntoni ngokwahlukileyo? Awunakho ukuhlala nje phantsi nomntu xa engathathi ntweni aze athi, ‘Ndifuna ukunceda.’ Akukho sisombululo sikhawulezileyo. Ndingathetha izinto ezinje, ‘Ukuba uyazilolonga, phuma phandle, ubone umntu omthandayo, inganceda.’ Kodwa khange ikwenze oko. Kwaye unyango awayenalo aluzange luchukumise macala.
Malunga neentsapho ezingama-6,000 zilahlekelwa ngumntu ozibulala e-UK minyaka le. Kodwa mhlawumbi linani elothusayo lokuba oyena mntu ubulala amadoda kakhulu e-UK phantsi kweminyaka engama-45 ukuzibulala. Omnye kwabane kuthi uya kugula isigulo sengqondo, utsho uZoë. Kodwa inani labafana abazibulalayo liyothusa. Ngoba? Amadoda amaninzi endikhe ndathetha kuwo athi iyabhida kakhulu ukuba yindoda yanamhlanje. Ufuna ukuba novakalelo kodwa womelele. Awunakho ukuphumelela. Kunzima ngokwenene ukuzama ukuba bobabini.
Kodwa oku kungaphezulu kokudideka kwamadoda, sisigulo. Ewe, esi sifo, kwaye amadoda aphethwe kukudakumba afuna uncedo. Kuthatha umntu ofanelekileyo ukuba anqumleze kumntu okhaliphileyo ngokwaneleyo ukufikelela. Ukukhathazeka kwakhe kukuba ukufumana abantu abafanelekileyo ukuba bancede kunzima kakhulu - i-NHS isolulwe kwaye izixhobo zinqongophele, iziyobisi zinokubonelela ngoncedo lwexesha elifutshane kodwa hayi impendulo yexesha elide kunye neeprojekthi zempilo yezengqondo ezixhaswa ngokuzimeleyo ezinokubonelela ngoncedo kunye nenkxaso yeengcali. zibhityile emhlabeni kwaye zincinci imali.

Sixakeke kakhulu kukukhathalela imizimba yethu - sisela kancinci, sithatha iivithamini, siyazilolonga - kodwa ukujonga ingqondo kuthathwa njengento engenamsebenzi. Ngokwamava am noBilly kwakunzima kakhulu kuye ukufumana inkxaso. Kuncinci kunikezelo ngaphandle kokuchasana nokudakumba kunye nengcebiso encinci.
Kwi-documentary yakhe wadibana noPenny Johnson, umama onyana wakhe uJamie wazibulala eneminyaka eyi-19. UPenny waqhubeka nokufumana iProjekti yangomso, inkonzo yothintelo lokuzibulala eqhutywa yiHarmless, isisa esibonelelwa ngemali nguNcedo lwezeMidlalo. Sathetha ngamakhwenkwe ethu, utsho uZoë. Sivumelene ukuba akufuneki sivumele ukufa kwabo kube lilize. Ukuba ndenza lo mceli mngeni ndinceda omnye umntu afune uncedo, kufanelekile. Ukuba olunye usapho aludingi kuhamba ngale nto yosapho lukaBilly, konke oku kufanelekile.
Ukufelwa kubuhlungu, nokuba imeko ithini na, kodwa ukuzibulala kukhohlakele ngenene, njengoko uZoë esitsho. Thetha nabantu abaswelekelwe ngabantu ababathandayo ngokuzibulala kwaye uhlala usiva ngathi ikho enye into obunokuyenza. Uloyiko alukholeleki.
Ngaba kunzima ukwenza izikhonkwane zakho ze-acrylic
Kukho amaxesha - bendinayo ngale ntsasa- xa ndingakholelwa ukuba kwenzeke le nto. Ndiphakathi kwalo mceli mngeni kwaye uBilly akasekho. Oko akushiyi. Oko kunye nentliziyo ebuhlungu, kwaye inyani awunakubagcina. Kuyinyani kumama notata kaBilly kunye noodadewabo kunye nabahlobo, naye. Bonke baneentlungu. Ingakumbi abahlobo bakhe abangamadoda. Iziphumo ezibi ziyingozi. Inokwenzeka kwakhona. Kuyothusa.

Ngaba usazingcikiva? Okwangoku ngamanye amaxesha ndiye ndicinge, ‘ndingumfazi onobuchule, ndingumfazi oqaqambileyo… kutheni ndingenakumsindisa?’ Kwaye emva koko kufuneka ndime kwaye ndithi, ‘Wonke umntu owayemthanda wayazi. Akukho namnye kuthi ofumene impendulo, akukho namnye kuthi owamsindisayo. Ukuqhubela phambili kuya kufuneka uyamkele loo nto. Eyona nto inzima kakhulu. Kodwa ndiyathuthuzeleka ngenxa yenyani yokuba akasekho zintlungwini. Wayetsala nzima yonke imihla ngoku useluxolweni. Intlungu iyekile kuye.
Kwaye ndizikhumbula zonke izinto ezizukileyo ngaye. Wayeyindoda ehlekisayo, ezele luthando. Ndikhumbula ndilaqaza emngcwabeni wakhe kwaye wonke umntu wayethetha ngaye kwaye ndacinga: ‘Ngewayengayizondi le nto.’ Wayekucaphukela ukuba liziko lokuqwalaselwa. Wayeyicaphukela ingxabano. Wayezithiyile iikhamera. Wayeyicaphukela yonke loo nto.
Ucinga ukuba, uBilly ngewayenze ntoni ngohambo lwakhe ngebhayisekile? Wayeza kuzichamela ehleka ukuba ndiseLicra ngebhayisekile enegazi. Uyakukufumanisa kuyinto ehlekisayo kwaye ingakholeki ngokungathandabuzekiyo. Kodwa ndiyathanda ukucinga ukuba angathi ukuba ukhona umntu apha ngaphandle esinokunceda singabikho kwimeko enxungupheleyo njengokuba wayenjalo, angayivuyela loo nto. Ke, ndiyathemba ukuba angavuya. Nangona ndimqalekisile izihlandlo ezimbalwa, ngakumbi ukunyuka intaba: ‘Wena sod! Ndikwenza oku ngenxa yakho! ’Ngentlungu, uburharha bufaneleka kwelona xesha lisezantsi. Wayenoburharha.

Ayisiyiyo ukuba ukukhwela iikhilomitha ezingama-350 ngeentsuku ezintlanu kuyintlekisa, ngakumbi ukuba ixesha lokugqibela uhamba rhoqo ngebhayisekile kwakungamashumi amane eminyaka eyadlulayo. Ndingaba neminyaka engama-47 kodwa ndiziva ndingama-63! Kodwa ndakuba ndigqithile kuloyiko lwam lwendlela, uloyiko lwam lokuhlangana, uvakalelo lwe 'Argggh! Kukho enye induli ezayo… ’besihla ngebhayisekile ndizive ndiphakeme. Ndibuhlungu - isitshixo asikho i-knickers, ibhulukhwe enephedi kunye nokubhabha ngaphantsi kwesithuthi ukuthintela ukothuka. Kodwa nam ndonwabile kancinci. Uyancuma. Kwi-documentary kukho iinyembezi (nangona ekhawuleza ukubonisa ukuba andiyikrukrhi amehlo am) kwaye ukuthetha naye ngoku kungathi abakude kude.
Unjani? Ndiya ndisomelela. Ndiyi-cookie endala enzima. Usapho lwam ludlule kwizinto ezininzi. Kukho amaxesha apho ungalindelanga xa usizi lukubambile. Kodwa eyona nto iphambili kum kukuba ndifumene abantu abadlulileyo kule nto kwaye benza ngcono. Bafumene ithemba. Yeyona nto inkulu kum leyo - ukuba kukho ithemba. Ngaphandle koko siyenzela ntoni le nto?
Ngokuphathelele uBilly, uthwala inkumbulo yakhe kunye nayo. I-rose tattoo ebonakala nje ngentla kwesandla sakhe ingqina enye awayenayo engalweni. Ulahlekile kakhulu. Xa uphulukana nomntu onje uziva ukuba bahlala bekunye nawe. Khange kube kudala.
Utyelela iDarwen qho kwiiveki ezimbalwa, apho kuhlala khona umama notata kaBilly, ukubona usapho. Wayedla ngokunyuka aye eDarwen Tower. Ngomhla wokuzalwa kwakhe ngoSeptemba ndaya apho kunye nabahlobo bakhe kwaye sabeka iziqhushumbisi saqengqa u-B elityeni eliphezulu. Yindawo entle ukubonakalisa. Ndimfumana esibhakabhakeni. Nanini na xa kukho isibhakabhaka esibhakabhaka kungathi ulapha.
Andiqondi ukuba ungaze ufumane ukuvalwa. Yinto eyinxalenye yam ngoku. Uya kuhlala esentliziyweni yam. Ndiyathemba ukuba esi ayisosiphelo, kodwa kukuqala kwam ukwenza into ukunceda.
