  1. I got fired due to a faulty Motorolla Pager (the one with the slanty line acroos the face and four buttons). Found myself in a poor signal area, missed the page, jobless! Was before the CCMA days and quite a bad experience for me. But life went on and I'm fine now, just running low on beer at the moment...
  2. That turned out perfect!
  3. Oh boy the nanny's and Karin's on here will freak now...We shoud live as dirty as possible right no so this thing can spread and peak earlier, so we can get on with our lives. Shake hands, share food, blow out the candles on your cake and share it with everyone. Lick te PnP trolley do whatever it takes!
  4. You can tree staining it with tea, which works pretty good. Lots of resources on it on the interwebs Also, the steelwool and vinegar method could assist, interwebs again Another trick is to buy some pre-stained varnish, I often use light oak to get that honey colour onto white pine.
  5. The Karen quip brings a smile to the face (which you won't be able to see right now cause of my mask). Edit:...and the internet and your location...
  6. So true, the hysteria about wearing masks while training, jeez one would think the offenders are mass murderers the way some social meadia and hub-nanny's are carrying one!
  7. Although I can't partake in this challenge due to the morning kids bus run (normal circumstances), I have been commuting to work the past few days since re-opening and also do so during school holidays. What was immediately apparent on my route was the absolute lack of glass in the yellow line! I enjoy my beer and some red wine and look forward to sip on a good red wine again, but it is incredible to think that the vast majority of broken glass along the road was booze related. I must admit I'm somewhat surprised about it. Anyhow, to those still able to work and earn a living and commute on a bicycle to work, enjoy it. To my fellow cyclists who are not privileged to do so, I think of you and hope that you'll be on your bike and in work again soon!
  8. He's a teetotaler, was a state choir singer in his youth and one of the wealthiest stadium rockers ever. He's genious with big hair and brass balls and I spent my youth listening to them. I still do.
  9. Nice, pitty you didn't ask here first as I would've advised you to just increase the mix ratio of the hardner a tad and then heatgun the surface periodically. That would set the curing process into faster rates (epoxy resin obviously) Still turned out nicely though!
  10. Thanks Andy, also learnt something today!
  11. I'm about 90% sure that's a 1914 Levis/Velocette frame, however, the motor throws me. BSA did the slanted motor as per your grand dad's picture but much later. Also, Royal Enfield, Humber and most other Brit bikes sused that style of frame, however, the tank in frame shape as this model is probably a Levis/Velocette, but that motor? Hope someone can shed more details, super picture! Edit: Triumph Motor fitted at that slant? looks like grand dad knew what he was doing
  12. Die hammer is die wenner in die foto!
  13. Up 1kg, will have to relax on the snacks during lock-down
  14. Kransie, jy het groot brons knaters, of julle braai nog saam?
  15. Well done!
  16. That is an absolutely fantastic conundrum to have! Sorry can't help here but if it was my money, the less expensive machine would do, but that's me
  17. Stefmeister, be a bit more specific? In short, if it's a Ryobi question, STFA from it as you'll spend your life being frustrated.
  18. His brother works in the electrical department here in Richards bay then!
  19. The SR71 was detected by NIA and Airforce during its pass over South Africa. It was again detected a few times more (probably about 3) during the early 80's edit: or aircraft with similar capabilities operated by the US.
  20. Till that section, so you get the eggs below ground where they'll die, no need to poison yet.
  21. Indeed snails. Looks like the typical brown garden snail eggs.
  22. Serves you right for planting kale!
  23. Jip the same idiots also want you not to have guns now too...as the saying goes, when they say you don't need it, trust me you need it!
  24. Mine worked a bit on tufts of grass this weekend on the hike in the berg. The spot we pitched our tent needed clearing and the knife worked well. I remain impressed with my Honey Badger
  25. Hi Ridr, There's no pre-booking system, so my advice from this weekend is as follows; - Try and pass through Phutaditshaba before 07:00, traffic is hectic through Qua-Qua on weekends - Gate entry is R100 at Witsieshoek, the hike will cost R180 for both of you. - The road is inaccessible to normal sedan cars, so you need something like an SUV or 4x4 (my RAV4 2WD handled it OK). Actually the road is atrocious in sections and fantastic in others. The first 2 km's is particularly bad, so be prepared. -Once at the car park you need to complete the overnight register with full details of your intended stay and return ETA etc. - Give Amphitheater Backpackers a try, we absolutely loved the facilities. They have a jacuzzi, the food is tops and deluxe room with dinner cost R500pp. They have cheaper options and I'll do that the next time as their communal kitchen has braais, gas, everything and not so far out the way as Mahai. - You probably know this; April is already very cold up top, so pack the warm stuff and we look forward to your report!
