RIP Thuggie.

I was scammed and was successful in having the scammer prosecuted. I opted to only open a criminal case. It didn't cost me a cent but it did cost a lot of my time. The result was well worth it and part of the sentencing includes the scammer having to repay me in full or face jail time. My amount was way too big to pursue via the Small Claims Court. DeniseD, I know you mentioned you have legal assistance already but you're welcome to contact me privately if you'd like some advice on opening a fraud case. You can open a civil as well as a criminal case.

I can't figure out who is on the ladies podium because of malfunctioning trackers. No updates on the Munga FB page either.

Nicky Booyens has just crossed the finish line. What a way to start off her birthday celebrations!

Elmien Stander has just crossed the finish line. 1st lady home in 17th place (if the website is correct). What a great ride she had!

That wrong turn cost Brian almost 29K at today's exchange rate. Gutted for him.

1.5 in total for all three categories. Each category will have: 0.25 for 1st 0.15 for 2nd 0.10 for 3rd

Pierre withdrew early this morning. Said he was feeling sick. An ambo picked him up and dropped him in Britstown.

It is probably birthday cake and beer. Happy birthday DirtRider!

I got this as a WhatsApp from a friend today. I have edited out the name and person who sent it. Pop me a DM if you want his details.

Great memorial for Barry!

The passengers were all from the same cruise ship. The bigger aircraft apparently descended and collided with the smaller aircraft which was below it. The two missing passengers have been located, both deceased. I think at least one, if not more, of the deceased passengers had emigrated from South Africa but it wasn't reported in the media. (Edit: Media has confirmed the South African connection. https://www.thestar.com/vancouver/2019/05/15/bc-woman-and-her-family-members-killed-in-alaska-sea-plane-crash.html) I followed the details of this crash very closely as I'd flown with one of the airlines involved on the same sightseeing trip.

I use table salt to prevent snails and slugs getting to my veggies. I sprinkle a thick layer around the border of the garden. Try to avoid sprinkling too much salt in the soil and/or over the plants.

Go ahead and plant them. I planted the Checkers Little Garden onions, leek, cauliflower, Swiss chard, cabbage, rocket, cherry tomatoes, lettuce etc about a month ago and they've grown a lot since then. I planted the radish into the big bowl you can see in the photo and I've already harvested some.

Area is too big for egg shells. I unfortunately work so won't be able to supervise the chicken.

Any advice on how to get rid of baby slugs? Tried the beer thing and it didn't work and I don't want to use chemicals.

That's a pity. Worked for my plants. Try adding cayenne pepper: http://homeguides.sfgate.com/kill-aphids-water-soap-pepper-91937.html

Dishwashing liquid and water.

Playing this loudly for Barry today - one of his favourites. Would have been his birthday today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0KYiYMagaA

You are so right Pieter-za. This thread was actually started due to attacks in this same area. https://www.iol.co.za/news/south-africa/cyclist-attacks-crack-saps-squad-set-up-432176
