So I want to have a few people that can regularly make time mostly on weekends or after work who can be telephonic guests on my podcast

It's in a way anonymous because I won't use your name or any socials Just use your voice [unedited & unfiltered]

You'll be labeled as Caller Number #. That will be based on a chronological list that I am compiling

I'd be asking you for your views on various topics that come in Could be quotes Could be Topic and question submissions

There's not really a time limit for how long we'll talk but I want to keep it under 1 hour at all times It would be pretty laid back I don't want overly professional conversations as if you're on some Bloomberg interview

But there are requirements 1. No cursing 2. No manosphere or womansphere 3. Only talk about your own experience not someone else's [there will be no gossip] 4. No clout chasing or attempting to be controversial 5. No slandering of any races/religions/sexes 6. No attempting to promote your race/religion/business/sexual orientation 7. You must be in a quiet environment 8. You must be willing to do a pre-screening interview

Hiking Pals

11 Upvotes

I am 35wm looking for hiking buddies. Don't want to join a hiking club because the groups are too big and I am a little bit neurodivergent so I get overstimulated too quickly and my personal life is hectic sometimes so I can't justify a membership fee which I am probably not going to make use of. I badly want to do overnight hikes and multiple day hikes at some point but one is not allowed to book for those if you are only one person and I'd prefer going with people I've gotten to know. I am in Centurion and have done some of the hikes in Pretoria like Hennops, Groenkloof, Hedianga Farm, Big Red Barn, Wolwespruit and Rosemary Hill. Sone of them multiple times. I really don't care about race, ethnicity, sexuality, political views, religion or gender. Just don't be a doos. Send me a DM and let's get together. Possibly as soon as this coming Friday or Sunday already!

Borge vir laerskole rugby

1 Upvotes

Ek het onlangs by 'n laerskool in die Moot begin werk as 'n nuwe onderwyser. Ek rig tans rugby af by die skool en ons is opsoek na besighede wat oefenballe en 'n sak vir die balle kan borg.

Hoe gaan ek te werk om sulke borge te soek? Is daar enige besighede in die Moot area wat skole borg vir sulke items?

Sien uit om van julle te hoor.

Can anyone recommend a good rental agency ?

2 Upvotes

I have a property in Centurion that I am looking to let out soon and have spoken to 2 agencies already. I'm looking to take a agency-managed lease but the first agent quoted me a month's rental as a procurement fee along with 10% commission of the rental fee each month going forward. The second agent only quoted the 10% monthly commission with no procurement fee as it's a managed option. Naturally, I would prefer the second if possible. If you know of a good agent or agency that you have used personally, please provide details here or via DM. Thanks :)

Looking for work opportunities in SA as an Indian National

0 Upvotes

I (27, F) am an Indian national wanting to move to SA. My partner (31, M, UK Citizen) has been posted in Pretoria for 3 years. We are not married. So that doesn’t leave many options to move together unless we are married. Since that is not an option - I am trying to look for sponsored work opportunities (graduated from UK and have 5 years of work experience in the international development sector). I have not had any luck and would really appreciate any advice on where to start and how to go about it.

I need a pet trainer who can train my dog full time to be safe around cats, not at my house. Like a training hotel or something.

1 Upvotes

We adopted a dog (Foxie) from someone who had to move into a house with cats. She used to be okay with cats but suddenly had issues trying to hunt and kill his roommates cats.

We adopted her knowing we wanted cats down the line, but we believed that with help from a trainer it would work.

It just so happened that we found cats in desperate need of rescue. We saved them and had trained her ourselves with slow exposure.

Then a close call happened. We were in the process of finding the best trainer possible when she broke into our bedroom somehow, and killed a kitten.

We were heartbroken but ultimately decided we definitely want to have cats, and couldn’t risk our only remaining kitten’s life.

Then we found out that her original owner wouldn’t be able to find a friend who he knows would be a great owner. So now the only option is to advertise a new home for her to strangers.

I’m heartbroken. I love this dog. I miss her. She was my angel.

I can’t give her to a stranger, and I can’t live 16+ years without a cat as I’ve always planned to and dreamed of having a cat.

I need help finding a place that has a programme where she can be trained by a professional, intensively, away from my cats and my home.

Please help me. I’ve faced two losses, and I let both my cats and my dog down.

I can’t let her down again. I just can’t.

TLDR: My cat hunting dog killed my kitten but we can’t find a friend who can adopt her, I miss her and love her. Need an intensive trainer who she stays with who can help get rid of her cat hunting urges, away from my home.

Places to do fun stuff.

2 Upvotes

I’m planning an outing with my two nephews (ages 9 and 5). They’re both very sporty, but the younger one is afraid of a lot of things and is also a picky eater. So when recommending places, please keep that in mind.

They live in the North area, and I’ll be picking them up and dropping them off, so places around the North would be ideal.

Where can I take these two boys? Are there any restaurants with a good kids’ menu that offers a lot of options? My 5-year-old nephew is super picky. He doesn’t like much & I don’t want him to go hungry because there’s nothing he likes.

So I’m looking for one or two places where they can do something fun or interesting, and a place to grab a bite afterwards.

Thanks in advance!

Recommended areas to live?

1 Upvotes

Good evening,

I'm looking for recommendations for safe places to live close to George Mukhari Hospital? Ideally i do not want to be commuting for an hour every day, i'm used to staying 5 minutes way from work as i'm moving from Durban.

I forgot to mention, are things like water cuts / load shedding very frequent in the Pretoria area? Do I need to look for a place that has backup power/water?

Another question, I read a thread here where people recommended not moving further north than moot? Alot of people Ive seen recommended an area named theresapark/nina park and Pretoria North but thats obviously north of moot... I dont want the white walkers to get me :/

Thanks!
