    The Courier Guy's Pudo locker delivery service tested

    The system works great. Wanted to send a package, and once there we realized it's too big for the locker. We closed the locker, it detected there was no package and asked if we wanted to cancel. We said yes, and it asked if we want to change the locker size. Said yes, it opened a new one (after...

    Manual vs Automatic

    I had manuals for 22 years, it's definitely more fun. As mentioned it's a better connection with the car. Now, I still like road trips, but the auto gearbox I have is so comfortable and it makes cruise control on longer trips much less of a hassle. Still, would recommend people learn to drive...

    The Home Improvements Thread (2)

    @deesef @Stokstert Thanks guys, it was easier than I thought. Cap off, split pin out, remove the copper piston like thing, replace washer, working perfectly. Took me 30 min and cost R10, just because I had to buy 5 washers in a pack.

    Nope, have sold and bought a couple of houses over the last 20 years, never been provided with one or asked for one.

    I don't think a plumbing CoC is a thing in Johannesburg. We haven't been asked for one, only gas and electricity.

    The Home Improvements Thread (2)

    Does anyone know what kind of float valve this is? I assume it's ancient. It's for an older loo in the house, never really touched it since we moved in 5 yeas ago. Hasn't given us an issue but it has recently started overfilling. Our house is already sold, so first prize is to fix it, otherwise...

    Push to ban pit bulls as pets in South Africa

    You are seeing everything in black and white, you need to look at the situation and the area. That article is obviously focused on North America. Cats are no match for humans when it comes to wiping out natural ecosystems. There is very little left of the natural ecosystem in most of the...

    Push to ban pit bulls as pets in South Africa

    A couple of months ago we went through a bad patch in our neighborhood (in Johannesburg) where garbage wasn't collected regularly, and this of course attracted rats to the area. I'm quite happy we had our 2 cats - our property plus our neighbors were kept rat free. It also stops people from...

    Fibre-to-the-business price comparison - October 2022

    I actually tried Afrihost, also tried Cool Ideas and Vox. With the order I gave a heads up that this is for a small business, because I don't want red tape issues further down the line (was doing this in my spare time just to help them out). All three times I was told I cannot order a FTTH...
