      @@TheJontydavid Actually the Great Whites have disappeared from our shores to such an extent that the shark cage diving boats have had to become seal diving boats now. All thanks to the Aussies love of fish and chips which is made from small sharks caught in our waters. The small sharks are the great whites prey, no prey, no sharks. Very sad. Surfers love it but its terrible for the ecosystem and its putting people out of business.

    I’m South African. Did you ever surf the Wedge in tea water with sharks? You had to drive into the port, take a right. Pretend you’re going to Milnerton. Park and then climb oversize, concrete Jax, which were the breakwater. Always got a ding in my board, just to get in into the water. Dunno, was it a Saturday or Sunday? We spotted a fin in the water. A real sharp fin, not a porpoise or dolphin curve. A real fin. Fuck me if all 5 of us just kept surfing. We thought we were all going to live forever.

      @@krishorst4734 Cape Town was able to avoid Day Zero - but only through a combination of aggressive water conservation and efficiency campaigns, and increased rainfall in 2018. Day Zero was pushed back by a full month due to restrictions in allocation of water to surrounding agricultural areas.
