All these up and down stages are fuking with my brain. To be honest I sometimes have no idea which stage we are in.

I am just happy when the lights are on

I guess even Tshwane council is confused, my power should be back up by now, but they are treating it as stage 5 while it is supposed to be 4 (what I think, but then again I am totally confused)

Imagine waking up at 8, switching on PC, and going to put on the kettle only to realise there's no ****ing power and you have a meeting at 9.

Its ****ing emberrassing, especially when dealing with international clients and you made triple sure the previous day that you won't get hit unless its stage 4.

Lo and behold these naiers hit you with a stage 5 or 6. I don't even remember these stages anymore.

I now need to make a plan to get a new battery for my laptop because the current one is moertoe already.

Stage 4 and stage 5 is exactly the same times for us so, whatever.

If you're not in PE, stage 5 can be up to 4 hours for one of the 3 sessions, it is only 1 where as on stage 6 it is a possibile 2.

Did you know that a while ago Madagascar also had some power cuts ... Every day they only had 2 hours of power.

We should be grateful for Eskom's performance ... Viva Suff Africa.
