Oh yay! Luckily I made breakfast and did my washing already. Will have to aimlessly wander around in shops again this morning.

We had a 10 hour blackout yesterday. I'm personally quite excited that the ANC will be protesting in Boskruin this week!

What? They won't? The protest in Soweto was just a political ploy?

It notifies you in advance of upcoming outages, via notifications
