    When your day starts like this, you might as well pack up and go home.

    Never gonna happen @Linxie. It's hard to tell yourself to go home when you're all on your own in the office for the day.
    But this is proof once again that I shouldn't attempt to do anything before I've had my morning coffee!

    Know exactly what you mean... different story when you're not the only one manning the fort.

    Yes, here in Stellenbosch it is also raining quite nicely, so we are headed for a good old Cape storm. Overnight the weather forecaste is heavy rain!

    Have a nice day and take care on the roads.

    Kind regards,

    Dirk

    Hectic @AdrianT.

    My mom and I had a ladies night out last night, she took me to see the Tutankhamun Exhibition at GrandWest. Knowing (thinking) GrandWest doesn't allow camera's inside, I left my DSLR in the car and planned to use my cellphone instead, and to my surprise when we got to the ticket desk at the exhibit, the gentleman said I could bring my DSLR inside. DOH! :BangHead: I wasn't going to run out again for my camera and want to bring Gareth anyway, so there will definitely be a next time :D

    For those who wish to visit the exhibit, it will be at GrandWest until 27 September 2015.
    I took over 90 photos and won't bombard the thread with them all... you can view the album here: http://s303.photobucket.com/user/LinkinSim/slideshow/Tutankhamun Exhibit?sort=3

    Trevor gave me the only two he could spare.

    I brought a couple with me from KZN, so we can make a plan for a small sum.

    Maybe I can try to get a couple to grow and then give everyone in the Cape here, their own private Catappa tree. They actually make very attractive house plants.

    My day started with a phone call to tell me we have a new water leak on site. The sea is pouring through our wall! I got to the office and our ceiling is leaking like a sieve thanks to some guys yesterday doing a wifi installation. Now I have to go to site and stand in the rain whilst I try and figure out how to seal the leak. Woohoo for the wet weather...

    Rather your site than your tank leaking...

    Agreed but it's a lot easier to sort out 300l of water than trying to plug the sea :)
