You leave early - was that the Jim Fouche spring?

Yip Jim Fouche, saw that yesterday morning @ 05H30, the news paper guys on the corner said it was like that when they got there earlier, my car got wet as I turned into Beyers Naude on the way to the N1 North, both up and down going lanes were wet with water as well as cars got drenched with water.

Was it the Beyers side? By the robot with the camera? I thought it was the other end, tbh. I just heard it on the radio. Damn, it must have caused MAJOR havoc!

Yes you right - on the other end, if you exit Jim Fouche to enter Beyers it is on your right - not sure if it is a FH on the little hill - made a nice big fountain. Wife said there were traffic reports yesterday warning people not to use the road, she had to use 14th Ave to get on the N1, it was fixed by lunch time.

Snap a lot of pics of my son but I love this one from today, giving me a hand turning the prop.
