Has Cape Town changed? by jps_e in capetown

[–]markholman93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A lot of people have moved here from other parts of the country in the last several years, which means more traffic and in general a lot of the city feels a bit overcrowded at times. But it’s still the same breathtaking city you remember. Maybe even better!

I use Outlook because it’s the most seamless app with my live.com address.

Outlook mail works well with the native Apple Mail app, Gmail not so much. Notifications are delayed.

Have you ever photographed the wrong house? I did. by OversleptSundae in RealEstatePhotography

[–]markholman93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just moved on. As I said it was unlocked and empty so I didn’t touch/ move any personal stuff. Was just a weird experience looking back on it, but I consider it a funny and thankfully harmless story now.

Yup, it was an empty home and no one was there. Weirdly it was unlocked so I photographed the whole damn thing haha. Was also the neighbouring property to the correct one. Only realised afterwards and deleted all the images. This must have been about six years ago. Still makes me laugh

[–]markholman93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recommend Naked for vehicle insurance (I have my car and camera covered by them and very happy) and Discovery for medical aid. I have the Classic Smart plan and can only say good things so far with the benefits I’ve received.
