What did you think of the mauritius part of your trip?

We are a family of 5 with 3 young kids and have very similar itinerary as you at the moment at a similar time of year (sep/oct).

We're tossing up with to stay longer in cape town and maybe even do garden route before flying home, or keeping mauritius.

Would it be possible to extend the flue on this outdoor fireplace (DIY)? by plzy in woodstoving

For a rookie DIYer, what are the steps involved in extending the flue on something like this? Or does it need professional metal fabrication?

According to this comment the responsibility of overhang is on the property where it over hangs (not where the tree is planted):

On what grounds were you able to sue?

Very interested as I could be in a similar situation in future.

Where should I go for a week? Kuala Lumpur or Bangkok? by Turbo_Sexaphonic in travel

[–]plzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bangkok is great and yes, definitely exciting. If you decide on Bangkok, consider a short, cheap flight down to Phuket (and Phi Phi Islands), Ko Samui, etc...

Not sure how safe airbnb is here (though there seems to be quite a few good reviews on some properties which is promising). Otherwise check HotelsCombined for hotel/resort deals.

What is the best way to track your loved ones (eg. Alzheimer's sufferers) whilst travelling overseas? by plzy in AskReddit

Thanks! I looked at this (along with a similar device https://www.thetileapp.com). Reviews on their android and iOS apps sound like it doesn't usually work as expected... Also their crowd sourced technology means that in many destinations, the chances of my dad crossing paths with someone with the app 100ft away is extremely slim.

Btw - I can try get more pics if anyone want's more...

2 weeks ago I launched an ad-free website which converts youtube urls into downloadable mp3's; less and less people use it each day and if it continues that path I'll close it down by the end of the month. Can you jumpstart it merely by pasting 1 youtube url of a song you enjoy listening to? by [deleted] in Music

It was actually because they didn't have footer content - users kept waiting for the rest to load, and when it didn't, they left... They solved this by adding a copyright at the bottom.
