Those of my age (OMG) will still remember those old Coke and Fanta cans. At some time in the 80s (?) they changed the opening clip of those cans from "pull it off" to "push it in", didn't they? Obviously for environmental reasons, since those clips had become an inherent and yucky part of any street, park or picnic area. I thought they had died out - but not at all! They are still around and growing strong. Actually, there is no real meaning to what I am writing here, but it just filled my heart with so much nostalgia... do you remember when we took them apart and used to shoot the ring with the small clip? Haha, what a ball!
And on another, a somewhat more serious note... Did you ever have a high voltage power line in your garden? It's one of the many goodies you may get 4 free. A recent storm took it down, sparks were flying and staff reported "there is fire coming out of the cable!". Unfortunately, the cable also came down in front of the entrance gate of the compound so there was no way the metal gate could be opened and hence, no car could neither enter nor leave the compound. One of the many absolutely unexpected obstacles you can encounter here ;-)
