Wind and Waves

I woke up early this morning to run. Boy was it wet. Tosca and I got soaked in a downpour. I suppose I should expect it, due to the season. But, it was still quite cool and damp.

As a result of the rain, Mark's 14h30 hockey game in Somerset West was cancelled. And, there is more heavy weather coming with two cold fronts scheduled to hit the Cape over the weekend. Looks like gale force winds (66 km/hr) and HUGE waves: 8.3 m at Cape Point! The "Cape of Storms" will live up to its name.

This evening, I met with the Sustainability Think Tank, a group of undergrad students, post-grad students, and administrators who are interested in the topic. They're preparing for a meeting with the Stellenbosch University administration.

And, we have yet more banking trouble. I was trying to add a beneficiary to make an online transfer, and I received the message: "Technical error. Please try again later." Arrrgh. Standard Bank really needs to get its act together.
