Yep, my area again not restored on time and yet yesterday power went out at 10pm for LS and came back at 10:50pm. Whoever was on shift was in no mood to sit there until 12 it seems.

There's been a lot of this in the last week or so, and all over the country. Veeery weird.
 
Seems CoCT fixed Steenbras in double quick time as not experiencing the 4-6pm slot - I would be if we were on *spit* Eskom's stages *spit*.

25% chance it's all for nothing, as my side says it's supposed to be cloudy, but currently nice sun filtering into the study, first time in 5 days ;-)
 
Already seeing an improvement in sun angles, looks like spring is on it's way.

I can't really comment sadly as 2 weeks ago I had trees, but now I'm hitting 2.6kw out of 4.3 installed so not doing to bad.
