I was informed by reliable sources that was a DA supporter who drove into the pipes in a fit of rage after the DA was voted out in Joburg

Randpark Ridge, still no water.

Now is the perfect time to gesture broadly around you while asking your wife this:

"You still hesitant about emigrating?"

Yeah some other guys didn't go off either. Lower areas apparently get first, not even sure how that works

Surprising amount of water needed to flush.

 

[Lupus]

Surprising amount of water needed to flush.

Yup seems so. The entire time I only used 3 buckets, but letting it mellow for a guy is easier apparently
