RE: Hidden life in the Cape Gooseberry bush.

Maybe you can also try one in a big pot? What I know is that they don't like direct sunlight here and it grows well in dappled shade.

So great to see them all over the place again and there is still a few rare species that I don't have. Amazing how all of the provinces have different species in them.

Yes we also got to bed after 12, but like last night the lack of sleep catches one. I all of a sudden I had a sore throat and was coughing repeatedly. Fell asleep in the heat at around 3:30am and up again at 7am.
I did install an aircon in the bedroom, but we can only use it in 30 minute spans, as when one uses it for an hour, our monthly electricity bill rockets up.
And now they want a 20% increase in the electricity prices. Madness, as why don't they get the millions of non payers to start paying.

A sad litany of bad management with a toxic political mix.

Air conditioning I cannot sleep under, open all the windows and have a fan on, have a High Velocity Floor Fan on an upturned flower pot/box in the corner directly over the bed, it works!

Extremely hot days use air conditioner for about half an hour before going to bed to cool the room down, floor fan lasts a lot longer than the pedestal fan too, running costs a lot lower.

Living between a rock and a bad place one makes plans to escape when able, so have a good day and if possible make it better 😄

That floor fan sounds interesting and maybe you can send me a picture, or a description of it?

We also cool the room with the aircon and when Marian sees that I am busy flushing in my sleep, as she listens to my breathing and when it sounds like panting, she turns the aircon on for 30 minutes.

Nothing that one can make better in this heatwave and best is to stay indoors 😉

Google the words I input into previous comment and TakeALot, Makro etc., all carry these which I have found more reliable.

Check where the switch is situated for convenience, one room has it on a dressing table, the kitchen above the glass unit to blow all day assisting fridge circulating air this one is about 18 years old, AEG.

Cool down it only lasts a couple of months they say 😂

Ordered a fan today and will get it next week my friend.
I am now making mosquito screens for the windows so that we can open the windows at night.
Hahaha, yes only 5 and a half or 6 months like last year. April things are supposed to start cooling down, but last year it was still hot in May.
