It's a long, difficult road, but this De Ruyter is the right guy for us.

Shhhh, you'll upset people who believe the white guy is at fault, again.

It's the positive outlook that is most refreshing, coming out of a debilitating loadshedding and people still able to be so positive about the future, it's something we have never seen before but it's a good thing nonetheless, it's like a new dawn...

Karma for you guys gypo-ing stage 1?

I think winter tariffs are kicking in for industrial customers which will impact demand.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Available capacity will drop when the weather does, as demand increases bringing with it unplanned breakdowns...

Looks like LS this evening. I will be surprised if there isn't any.

Nah, I think they must have looked at the weather before yesterday's announcement, which didn't say just Sunday, and it's nearly afternoon already.
