@Rob Fisher I love your contributions - being in the UK has made me realise how lucky I've been to be around for a long time in SA. I miss my hares out in the field the most. Also a very strange thing in the UK, I used to see toads come out every night in SA. First time I found a toad and it was a tiny baby about 2 months ago when I moved to better accommodations. I will never complain about toads again - I also miss having those around.
"Trespassers will be composted" love it, lol.
My Hoya are coming into flower here.

Oh my! What a beauty!
It's one of the plants I missed having after moving to the farm in Mooiriver - it's too cold to grow them there. I'm currently in the UK so I haven't established a planting area for myself yet as we're going into winter and I have empty containers with just compost in (just onions, garlic and potatoes).
@RainstormZA I battle getting them through winter in the Cape. They don't like water when it's cold at all. You could grow them in a bright area inside though. They love the humidity of the bathroom.
I wish I had a bigger bathroom. It's far too small to fit a bath in it, only has a shower and not enough light either.
