Oh look power is back.

 

[Priapus]

And people mock Durban for being sht.

Because it really is utter ****.

 

[wingnut771]

Because it really is utter ****.

Only if you go to the beach.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Only if you go to the beach.

Or the river. Or the treatment plants that put water into the taps. And by extension if the taps are schit, everywhere is schit...

 

[Priapus]

Only if you go to the beach.

Nah, the whole of KZN can be cut from the mainland.

 

[wingnut771]

Or the river. Or the treatment plants that put water into the taps. And by extension if the taps are schit, everywhere is schit...

0.0000000000001% of the kzn population goes to the river for fun. Treatment plants are to clean the sewerage into grey water before it flows into the river, got nothing to do with tap water. We don't have a tap water quality problem.

 

[Vorastra]

Because it really is utter ****.

I will fight you.

 

[wingnut771]

Nah, the whole of KZN can be cut from the mainland.

100%. Jhb will become a ghost town.

In first world countries people do that through the leccy grid because they get paid decently for it. Here in the Banana Republic the grid goes off all the time removing this option.

I'm not worried. City Power decided we didn't need power the whole of yesterday. So I'm back to being able to cope with stage 4 and beyond.

 

[Vox Populi Vox Dei]

So what I'm getting is the Eskom gives you load-shedding and then you get City Power load-shedding (unscheduled) on top of that...
