I bought a lemon

About eleven years ago I bought a lemon tree. It did nothing until recently when it produced two or three of these:-Now it is suddenly producing magnificent lemons! Strange!

What kind of soil is this tree growing in???

Good old Newlands soil. I am not one to use much fertiliser, just lots of mulch. I think it may have hit a rock. Amazingly there were segments of lemon inside that lot! Strangely the lemons it is now producing are normal.

Slangkop Lighthouse, Kommetjie

SOLD Slangkop lighthouse is the tallest iron tower on the South African Coast and sits at the one end of Kommetjie. It measures 100 feet from base to the balcony and has been operational since 1919. Every lighthouse has a different frequency of flashes and this one emits four flashes every 30 seconds as it turns and can be seen for 33 sea miles. Here is an oil painting of the lighthouse from a photograph Bryan took. I would like to do a watercolour of it sometime soon.
