Nothing for me unless they change to Stage 2.

Or unless they decide '**** Stellenbosch' and switch us off anyway, which they're probably going to do.

Yes, we've been off since 3:00am.

I saw on twitter technicians were sent to Roosevelt to attend to a "problem" at about 6:00am.

Next thing, Roosevelt goes up in flames at 9:30ish.

Make of that what you will.

They probably tried to erect scaffolding again, like that fiasco at Koeberg a while back...

So I've been assuming for a while that I don't get any loadshedding when on Stage 1. Tonight basically confirmed it.

Seems only stage 2 and 3 affect me. /winning
