I was wearing rubber soles shoes which completely failed in the ~200 steps it took. One the entire sole unglued and resulted in bad blisters through my sock and the the other the rubber sole melted into goo....

The sun is scary!!

Praying for all those in and in front of those fires. Only god can stop them it seems
Ah! you had the big black burn/blisters too! It was months before the things disappeared, and I had big scars on my soles for most of a year. The rubber melting can't have been wonderful - that'd keep the heat to your foot!

On behalf of those affected, thank you for your thoughts... We always think of your side of the world when we hear about your fires, because we know all too well...

Hope I did the right thing!

This other NoID Phal was suffering in the shop pot, I thought, so I mounted it how it's gonna go in the terrarium.

With all the fires plus Xmas, I've now been waiting 3 weeks for the tank - hopefully this week as the tracking informs me it's now in the state. I can wait, but not sure how this one will go... had a few rotted roots, but not too bad, all cut and cinammoned...hopefully it'll not die from being mounted and then moved again within a week!

Im sure you will work it out, looking forward to seeing the results.
Setting it up will keep you busy over Christmas if you get it in the next couple of days.
