Boiled water using my Electric kettle for the first time in years. It felt like I was doing 160km/h in a 60km/h zone. Exciting but worried that Eskom was watching.

Please don't be so selfish and ruin Eskom for the rest of us.

I'm getting nervous, 2 whole days of no load shedding? What is this? 2003?

Looks like they are burning diesel again, guess it going to back back to the regularly scheduled programming tomorrow evening

What's this? I've not had power for 17 days

Bloody hell dude. I figured it would have been resolved by now.

What’s the latest?

Sub blew up. CP useless at replacing parts.

Seems our street is constantly ignored, latest is the same as it was

Not to mention our ward councilor is the most useless pos out there, SAPs, JMPD and even city power have all asked why he's not doing anything? I've replied we've tried, now apparently as other councilors are doing stuff he's attempting to block the repair cause he looks bad, it's like seriously wtf

It hasn’t been great for PV these last few days either. Today not looking great either.

Sucks man. Hopefully by Christmas?

(Typing that out just makes me realize how insane this is)

Take it up with the DA directly maybe? (I assume he is a DA councilor)

I know right, yeah my pool is shockingly green as I've not anyway to reliably run the pump.
Also hopefully by Xmas all I know the DA has actually lost most of this ward

You think we've not tried? I've exhausted every avenue that they say I'm legally supposed to have

It’s probably cheaper to let it go green and then fix later when power is back than to try run it on a gennie to keep clear.

Time to start burning ****. It’s the African way, right?

Yup, sadly what I've had to do
