23 days until @Priapus [probably] wins his bet against @wingnut771 about Eskom not going above Stage 6 in winter.

At the very least, the next 5 days are in the bag for @Priapus

Honestly, I thought @Priapus was the crazy one. At the beginning of winter, I would have definitely favoured you. I didn't think it'd be constant stage 6 LS, but I thought we'd have temporary bouts of Stage 8 LS at the very least.

I think I [might] have gotten lucky to be honest.

60hrs later…

Still dead in the water and apparently they tried to fix a fault last night; however it ran through a customers yard and they were denied entry. So morning shift team will look at it.
 
Next week's demand could be quite low given the weather, below the forecast for Joburg.
