So what the F was all this malarkey about heavy loadshedding on Sunday to 'build up reserves for the week'? Those reserves gone already?!

Stage 2 puts me from 16:00 - 18:30. Guess I'm down at the pub after work for an hour...

And finally, in Brackenfell, we will be hit from 5 to 6:30. And on Sunday "We don't need to do load shedding, but we will, you know, to build up reserves for during the week".

!@#$! the weather's miserable, they're cutting off the water for a day at 08:00 tomorrow for maintenance and now stage 2 tonight :mad:

... at least I'm in the 21:00 slot so should just be an hour for us.

Area 10 routinely takes it up the @55 without vaseline. Hate Eskom. Hate that I'm not rich to go off grid.

No load shedding for me today :D

Would be off from 12:30 - 15:30 if load shedding started earlier - but I would be at work then so wouldn't really bother me.
