Just shows the importance of having a fire extinguisher in your vehicle, doesn't even have to be a big one but at least have something, as well as a small medikit and a easy to reach tool to break windows and cut safety belts.

It looks like the top of Table mountain next to the Cable car station but I’m 100% sure?

A 2L Coke bottle works just as well

Has anyone else noticed that the sun has been particularly harsh this summer on plants?
Because the leaves on quite a few long established plants in the garden are getting burnt from sun exposure and that has not happened in past years. It’s not due to lack of water, with the recent heat I have been consistently watering morning and night but some of the plants have half of the leaves in shade half in sun and the sun half is getting hammered, leaves yellowing, burn marks, falling off.

Nice cool day today for a change. Lekker Sunday weather.

Yeah, my small plants that are not in the shade are scorched. It's not a a water issue either. Never had this issue before.

Do you water the plants and then leave water droplets on the leaves in peak heat?

Ditto. Even had to move indoor plants out of sun path.
