paddatrapper | Morning in | 07:05 |
paddatrapper | inetpro: | 07:05 |
inetpro | paddatrapper: hi | 07:05 |
inetpro | how's Cape Town doing today? | 07:05 |
paddatrapper | Enter and tab shouldn't be so close together on this phone... | 07:05 |
inetpro | haha... | 07:06 |
paddatrapper | It's wet! Though it's just drizzling, so not the rain we need. How are you doing? | 07:06 |
inetpro | always good thanks | 07:06 |
inetpro | at least we know that it's not your rainy season just yet | 07:07 |
inetpro | but I hope you get some relief soon | 07:07 |
paddatrapper | Yeah true. I hope so too | 07:07 |
inetpro | also still need lots more rain here in the north | 07:07 |
paddatrapper | How much have you had this summer? There seemed to be very little over the few days in December and Jan that I was there | 07:08 |
inetpro | I haven't measured properly to be honest but I can tell you that we have not had the normal rainfall for the season yet | 07:10 |
paddatrapper | Eish. Well there is still time, so hopefully you get all you need | 07:11 |
inetpro | and the lawn is struggling to get going, at least we're saving on lawnmower costs | 07:12 |
paddatrapper | inetpro: true! We just rake the dust now lol | 07:29 |
chesedo | lol | 12:09 |
chesedo | afternoon all | 12:09 |
chesedo | including paddatrapper and inetpro | 12:10 |
paddatrapper | hi chesedo | 12:10 |
chesedo | how is your semester coming along paddatrapper | 12:11 |
chesedo | *? | 12:11 |
paddatrapper | chesedo: it's just before test week now, so it's crunch time. Lots of assignments due and very little time to do them | 12:12 |
paddatrapper | but that is the nature of UCT at the moment | 12:12 |
paddatrapper | how's yours going? | 12:12 |
chesedo | about half way done... just past assignment overload... until apr at least... | 12:15 |
chesedo | paddatrapper: do you two or four semester a year? | 12:15 |
chesedo | s/semester/semesters/ | 12:15 |
paddatrapper | chesedo: 2 semesters, but each is broken up into two, so half way through are the first tests | 12:16 |
chesedo | ouch, at least i only have one per semester... all though i might be happier if we had two small ones in the same way, but might be a massive paper handling nightmare for unisa | 12:18 |
paddatrapper | I'm sure it would be... | 12:41 |
superfly | hi paddatrapper, chesedo, inetpro | 16:31 |
paddatrapper | Hi superfly. How's the house redecoration going? | 16:32 |
superfly | not so much redecoration as much as fixing things and finding where to put stuff | 16:32 |
superfly | (or building things to help with fixing stuff or finding where to put stuff) | 16:33 |
superfly | paddatrapper: if you're ever flying around the USA, you *must* come and visit. | 16:33 |
paddatrapper | superfly: thanks. I certainly shall | 16:34 |
paddatrapper | Yeah there's always a lot of fixing and moving stuff around when you move into a new place | 16:35 |
superfly | I need to get my veggie garden up and running, it's planting season already | 16:35 |
superfly | and I need to go and buy stuff to build my chicken coop/run | 16:36 |
paddatrapper | How many chickens are you thinking of getting? | 16:38 |
chesedo | hi superfly, sounds like fun... or is is past that point yet | 16:38 |
superfly | paddatrapper: just 8 at this stage. We'll probably end up with more later on. | 16:38 |
superfly | chesedo: still fun :-) | 16:39 |
superfly | things take on a different meaning when you own your house | 16:39 |
paddatrapper | superfly: nice. Good supply of eggs there | 16:39 |
chesedo | how often do they lay eggs? | 16:40 |
superfly | This is where we live: https://goo.gl/maps/JNRrjtdRR2P2 | 16:40 |
superfly | chesedo: the particular type of chicken I'm getting lays about 300 eggs per year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australorp | 16:41 |
chesedo | wow, eggs for breakfast almost every day... | 16:42 |
inetpro | with 8 hens you should have eggs every day | 16:44 |
superfly | That's the plan! | 16:58 |
chesedo | So pigs shedding bacon is next? :P | 17:09 |
superfly | chesedo: I don't know. Lots of people round here actually have goats, so we *might* try that. | 17:10 |
chesedo | for the milk or meat? | 17:11 |
superfly | But we also just picked up 2 puppies, so I wanna get through the puppies and the chickens before I think of anything else. | 17:11 |
superfly | Mostly the milk. | 17:11 |
* chesedo always wanted to try goat's milk | 17:11 | |
superfly | chesedo: you should be able to get some in Checkers or Pick n Pay. I remember seeing it occasionally. | 17:12 |
superfly | You'd need to go to a hypermarket or something probably. | 17:12 |
superfly | Otherwise look to see if there's a local farmer's market. | 17:12 |
chesedo | have looked before... may not have been hard enough... | 17:12 |
superfly | chesedo: I probably saw cheese more often than I saw milk. | 17:13 |
chesedo | that is of course something else to try with the goat's milk too in the future... well the heat might be a kicker | 17:14 |
superfly | paddatrapper: have you ever been to Fairview? | 17:15 |
superfly | chesedo: there's a goat farm outside Cape Town that I've been to, and I think I had some milk there. I know goat's milk tastes very different to cow's milk. | 17:15 |
superfly | https://www.fairview.co.za/ | 17:16 |
paddatrapper | superfly: no I haven't (at least I don't remember visiting) | 17:24 |
nlsthzn | o/ | 17:48 |
superfly | hey nlsthzn | 17:53 |
nlsthzn | hey superfly, how are you? | 18:03 |
superfly | nlsthzn: I'm doing well thanks! How are you? | 18:05 |
nlsthzn | Can't complain thanks :) | 18:42 |
pavlushka | Ahot Za! | 19:00 |
pavlushka | Ahoy | 19:00 |
nlsthzn | awho? | 19:38 |
pavlushka | ? | 19:51 |

nlsthzn | >.> | 20:39 |
