I need some help from the tech wizzes out there! 🇿📸✨

I have hardly any photos from my childhood, so I was over the moon to find this one. I tried using AI to sharpen it, but look what it did—it completely removed my mom’s caliper.
My mom had polio and lived with a caliper her whole life. It’s part of who she was, and I want her depicted exactly as she was, caliper and all. I’ve tried different commands, but the AI just won't put it back.
Are there any restoration wizzes who can help me accurately restore and enhance this precious memory?
Please drop a comment or send me a DM if you can help! 👇❤️

PS I'm on the left with my eyes shut, clearly long before I started loving having my photo taken and that's my brother Alan on the right

🇿🇦 Being South African is like belonging to a secret club🤫.

We understand that "now now" doesn't mean now.
We know "just now" could be five minutes... or tomorrow.
We think biltong deserves its own food group.
We believe every problem can be discussed around a braai 🔥.
And no matter where we live in the world, a simple "Howzit?" feels like coming home.

PERTH ... let's celebrate all of that together at the Riverside Theatre on 15 October😂
Come and laugh with me. Bring your Aussie mates too—they might finally understand us.

🎟 Get your tickets on Ticketek Australia before they disappear... now now!

🙄if you're based in South Africa and want to buy tickets for your family or mates in Perth... you have a valid excuse not to - lol. The ticketing site only works from Australia😉. BUT that doesn't stop you from TELLING them about the show, so please do that - buy a donkey

From driving race cars to traveling the world, this crazy job of mine has let me tick off some massive bucket list moments. But one of my absolute favorite perks? My partnership with .

I bought my first Thermomix back in 2012, and it was love at first sight. Honestly, Sandy jokes that she’s my second love right behind this machine!

I spent my entire weekend off buzzing around the kitchen creating incredible meals. It’s therapeutic, it’s my ultimate reset button, and it reminds me that true joy is often found in the simple, quiet moments (and brilliant smells) right at home.
For those who haven't cracked the nod for a Thermomix dinner at our place yet—rest assured, your time is coming! 🧑‍🍳👇

These photo memories from 2018 popped up today. Looking at these photos reminds me how lucky I’ve been.

The Cape Town Comedy Club was one of those rare places where every show felt like coming home. Kurt Schoonraad created something incredibly special, and I always looked forward to walking onto that stage.

Sadly, COVID brought the curtain down on the venue, but not on the friendships, the laughter or the memories.

Thank you, Kurt, for giving so many of us a place to do what we love. I’ll always miss your comedy club in Cape Town. ❤️
