    Yaaaaaaaaaay! I got my LED strip today and discovered that 1m is more than enough for my tank - I can split it in two, wire it together and set it up :D

    Haha. My Samsung S2 has battery issues (even after 2 new batteries) so I bought a little Samsung Pocket for R950 until my contract is renewed. It doesn't even have a flash! Cell phones these days are impressive though... But not really this one. I think it's just such a beautiful setting even taking a photo with a toaster would make it look delightful. But thanks. When I left my house and saw the mist I thought nooooo, I should go back and fetch a proper camera. Next time!

    Do it! Being outside is food for the soul. If I only sat at work and went home day in and day out for years I would commit suicide, no doubt about it.

    I discovered that my CO2 was pretty much empty last night :( I dropped it off at Nova Marine this morning, they will fill it (5kg bottle) for R20 per kg + VAT. Impressive.

    Eh, you should check this one out - I was just lucky to be there at the right moment, it was just after the brief snow storm in Mooiriver and this was on my way home to the farm.

    This with a crappy blackberry cellphone...

    Wish there could've been audio. The lady's husband looks royally pissed when he enters the place.
    And seriously, 15 minutes for that small amount of food? I'd be pissed off too. Would prob want my money back too, but prefer not to make a scene, though.
    Too bad this is just going to turn into a major race war and no one will end up seeing it for what it really is.

    ...and they'll probably use it as an excuse not to pay out if we do get hail damage. "But we WARNED them! They should have parked their car in the garage and magically arranged not to be at work every time we sent them a stupid SMS because the sun went behind a cloud!"
