Ed-Zulu Posted November 9, 2015 Share I got this for my 10th birthday...a day before me dad and I went fishing for a week...very few wattle saplings survived that week http://www.gear4dad.com.au/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/3/3/33081_rambo_style.jpgI used the same knife in February 1986, by now not 10 years old anymore, to carve my initials and H.C. with the date on a wattle tree on the banks of the Vaalriver. The H.C. was for sighting Hally's Comet...it sported two tails that night and was supposed to be at it's brightest only in March 1986, but my recollections were that February were better. Not long after the bolt holding the blade and handle together worked loose and I moved on to other knives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratus5 Posted November 9, 2015 Share google "cloud formations" and wham... They are lenticulars, but even so they are quite special and not the normal wave cloud one sees downwind of table mountain on strong NW wind days. On this day we had unusual conditions with a SE pushing up and over the mountain from the south and a moderate to strong NW on the Northern side. The turbulence in the shear layer between the two layers must have been quite interesting and that with a very high moisture content of the air resulted in these beautiful clouds. Off course, it could just be the most obvious answer, which is aliens.... DJR and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southeaster on the Newlands side of the Kings blockhouse and Northwester on the City side of it. I'm just disappointed I missed the cloud formations.

City Cycling Athletic Club Posted November 9, 2015 Share Years ago, early one Sunday morning, a certain daredevil Capetonian in a Lightning buzzed the presidents house in Rondebosch and caused me to literally fall out of bed with fright and our cat to jump off the 3rd floor balcony. That monster was loud, so loud that whenever they flew it at air shows in the 1st world, they regularly had to pay fines for using airports because they were way above the allowable noise levels.that was Mike Beachy Head owner of Thunder City - i think his excuse was that he buzzed the Sunday morning mass at his old school Bishops.

CogitoErgoSum Posted November 9, 2015 Share and a kettieYeah. Also thought a kettie will be fine for my 6year old. He shot out my bakkie's canopy side window. Cost of one stone = R1250.00.

As you came off the highway towards Dooringkloof, there is a field to your left, with storm tunnels under the road and bushes on the right. My rambo knife exactly like this one, my kettie a pocket full of marlbles and I protected that area from all the baddies. And even though I could always see our house from where I was, I would ALWAYS used the compass to navigate back home Edited November 10, 2015 by Patchelicious BSG, Ed-Zulu, Tumbleweed and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruity Posted November 10, 2015 Share HELL YES> Never played the game itself, but I love the lore behind it and really really really want to see this. It was a great series back in the day. Didn't play the first one, but watched some mates play it. Had a try at the 2nd one, it was okay. Enjoyed Warcraft 3, and the Frozen Throne expansion.
