Yep our garden is flooded from the rain.
The City of Cape Town has commenced mopping-up operations across the city amid flooding in informal settlements in Khayelitsha, Ottery, Langa, Strand, Philippi, Gugulethu, Delft, and Vrygrond. | @nickymccain news24.com/news24/southafric…

When your city bounces between Stage 1 & Stage 2 & you have to figure out if you'll be going down or not since your area is scheduled for Stage 2 from 16:00 - 18:00 but nothing in Stage 1 for that time. #Loadshedding
Load-shedding update 2 June 2021 Eskom's load-shedding is active non-stop from 10:00 today, 2 June, until 22:00 on Friday 4 June. City-supplied customers are affected as follows today: Stage 1 from 10:00 to 17:00 Stage 2 from 17:00 to 19:00 Stage 1 from 19:00 to 22:00

There are no words to describe the heartbreak in seeing that library burn. As well as the loss of Mostert's Mill and the Rhodes Memorial restaurant.
Yikes, I wonder if we should put the kettle on & make snacks. Cape Town could be getting visitors if they can't get that ship moved soon. #suezcanal news.sky.com/story/egypt-sue…
Hubby's ability to use the internet is getting slowly better each week. He ordered his own Valentine's Day presents.
I needed a laugh today. Got this from a friend.
Cake and a Seismic Event for 2020. Thanks for the 'wishes' mother nature.😀 #CapeTownTremor
