You just ruined the friendship! May your burned offerings be charcoal today!

What? WHAT? What? Gee! You okies have nae sense of humour, tis nae my fault your government ain't working

Look here, I at work this morning and was thinking about all the hardship my MYBB brethren are having to endure and seeing as it is a stinking hot 17 degrees outside, I have turned off my airconditioner as I have my brekkie, in solidarity, I stand with you, please don't ruin our friendship over a few lost volts!

Which they're not following... so what's the point?

 

[ChocolateBadger]

I have the best solution to this problem, all eskom has to do is switch off Zimbabwe

Pretty accurate in my case. Was blacked out at 2pm per the new schedule.

Dunno hey. Botswana has a lot more industry than Zim and their peak load is one eighth of what eksdom is shedding.

Switch of the 45% claimed to be used by Africa then our economy surely means more

That doesn't say Africa uses 45 percent of Eskom's output though...
