    @DCWarHound: From the little I know I would guess the R700 for the entire setup alone is not that bad at all. My 2cent worth in any case... (Would however double check to see that the glass is not cracked and that the silicone seals are still good)

    Just make an image of your entire drive and store it on a external usb. I made an image of my PC after a clean install and installing all the apps and updates. So when it happens it takes me 30 minutes to re-image my entire PC.

    Springbok pharmacy in Alberton sells a gout pack. It WILL sort you out without any injections.

    What sewing thread would you guys recommend for tying plants to woods and rocks? (so it rots off in a week or so).

    You must get mercerised cotton not poly cotton/polyester cotton. The mercerised cotton is 100% cotton & will decompose quickly.

    Does not really matter what you use because the plant grows over it quickly.

    Problem is that over time it rots on some parts while other parts stay unaffected,i lost one of my pumps as a result.If i wanted it to stay then i would rather use fishing line.

    Sorry for your loss :(,what type of snake was it?
