Ninja edit: 10:00 on Monday.

Like last time? Then at 8:00 am the ANC asks them to give them time to Friday? Where the ANC mentions cigarette sales will be available in 2 weeks when we go to stage 3 then 2 days before stage 3 the rules change again?

That's the ANC process and procedure.

There is no more time, the regulations were published in the government gazette...

2 weeks to level 3 ?

It's a figure of speech. But you wouldn't know anyways. Since the testing is done like garbage in this country this lockdown is still fighting a invisible enemy. These 5 weeks was for absolutely nothing. In level 4 the rate is just going to increase faster and the president will be "shocked".

I am still under the same lockdown as Day 1 and it will be same until level 1.

Meanwhile the "righteous" are stocking up on sweeties. Where do I complain to the health minister? Got to share the pain all around.

If ever we get to level 1. Or they'll call it level 1 but mean level 5.

Ag shem. When? Next year?

I reckon if they apply for an urgent interdict they could be in court next week.

Some info on what is considered urgent and not by our courts.

Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr - Urgent applications – don’t fall into the trap

The very last result that a company wants when proceeding with an urgent application is for its application to be dismissed for lack of urgency. Not only does the company not achieve the desired outcome, but it has to pay its opponents costs as well as its own legal team. Talk about a double...

As the guards at small shopping centers, it is a hit and miss though. Go there early in the morning as run out of stock quickly. I got 6 packets of RG @ R50 per packet this morming at the second place I tried.

The meat thing is well on its way by the "neo progressive" marxist vegans. Luckily 1 meat eater is physically more capable than 10 of them.
