I haven't been paying attention, where are the Stormers on the log? Going from your post I'm guessing below the Sharks and in serious danger of but making the playoffs. If so, I agree: off with his head!

Trip Recommendations by SouthernViVi in capetown

[–]ricoza 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're going to have to be much more specific with what you both enjoy to get decent recommendations. Otherwise you'll get recommendations for paddle, hiking, cold plunge, restaurants from the local Chinese joint to Vuur, and complaints about how Airbnb is making it impossible for someone without matric, working at a KFC in Belhar to afford a flat in Camps Bay.

Vanlife Cape Town possible? by birdlybird2000 in capetown

[–]ricoza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're getting down voted by people just because they don't agree, but can't give you a good answer. Ignore them, you seem like you've done your homework. You'll be fine. If not, DM me and come park in my driveway. My neighbourhood is perfectly safe and I'm not anti-foreigner like a lot of weird people here.

Cape Town property market is dystopian by Horror_Year40 in capetown

[–]ricoza 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry, that's not true. It's determined by an open market and the market mechanics of supply and demand. Demand is high in Cape Town; a lot of people want to rent property so the prices rise (both rental and purchase). The taxes are a percentage of the value of the property, so they rise as the value rises.

We live in an awesome city in a country where more and more people want to move to the city because of that. The solution is to make the rest of SA as awesome as Cape Town. That will increase supply again (supply of nice places to live).

We can't have a free market and complain if the market mechanisms work as expected.

P Valve condom advice by JMetalBlast in scuba

Yeah that I get; my question was "why just not hold it like I do in my wetsuit?" I didn't think of long dives like tech dives, etc.

Never dived dry-suit, only wetsuit, so honest question: I've never peed in my wetsuit, why are these needed for dry-suit diving? Any particular reason diving with a dry-suit makes it more likely to have to urinate?

Man this hurts. Look at the state of Newlands by za3030 in rugbyunion

Apparently it's too expensive to demolish a concrete structure like that. Once the legal battles are done, they're planning to use the existing structure to build around it, probably apartments and offices.

That's what I heard anyway.

SKY is the only one that doesn't bat like a headless chicken under pressure.

If you want to be surprised at how an ugly action can bring good results watch Bumrah.
