The fire is still going. City of Cape Town is advising people to wet towels and cover their faces with it. Masks? Never heard of it! #CapeTown

The Cape Town mountain fire visible from our house tonight. My phone camera doesn't show how dramatic it is, it's hanging over us and it's strung out all the way along the mountain.
(we're too far from the fire to be in danger, about 3km with an estuary between us and the fire, but people closer to it are having to evacuate)
We bought some feta and spinach pies from Woolworths and drove to the beach. The beach was too busy so we drove on a few minutes and found a quiet spot to have our lunch. #CapeTown

Hi #CapeTown. A reminder, that in almost exactly 48 hours, on Saturday 2025-04-12 at 13:00 I'm going to drink #beer at the #OceanaPowerBoatClub in #GrangerBay. I encourage you to do the same.
#everybody I'm planning to be in #CapeTown between 2025-04-11 and 2025-04-21. I'd like to do a #Mastodon #MeetAndGreet while I'm there.
Who else would like that?
Any suggestions about date, time and venue? Somewhere in the #Waterfront is probably convenient for most people.
Shift to #DM to arrange details, if you are interested.

New life motto: Everywhere kind of sucks.
"A group of anti-#Israel #activists held wanted posters with the names and photos of members of #SouthAfrica’s #Jewish community at a pro-#Palestinian protest in #CapeTown's Sea Point Promenade on Saturday - demanding the individuals be arrested or deported from the country, the South African Jewish Report published on Thursday.
Many of the individuals, who were contacted by the Report, deny having committed any crime and some claimed they had never lived nor worked in Israel."
Any Tortoise fans out there? Here’s an Angulate (aka Bowsprit) Tortoise - probably the only wild #tortoise I’ll ever see! Spotted at a picnic stop near the Harold Porter Botanical Garden.
