It was, at least 3 storeys tall. It has survived all these years, this time it didnt last.

Im just impressed the pines that we have at our neighbours havent lost branches. It usually does during these storms.

I know something scratched my bedroom window over night

At your own home yes

But you are allowed to get into a taxi that is 100% full as long as they open the windows?

Thanks, I wasn’t aware of that.

Also, turns out all complexes around us are on. Which is wierd, might just be us.

I cant remember what area do you stay in?
It might be a general fault - is it just your unit or all of them?

Burgundy Estate.

I think we would normally fall under Plattekloof or Bothasig, possibly even Richwood.
