Yes, i am prepared. i have a CampingGaz cooker and i have pipe tobacco and rolling papers. Only 2 batteries and a charged MVP, so i probably won't need the tobacco.
@Necris , how was the weekend? What sort of upgrade? (POS, is all i know......and hundreds of sites - more than a 1000, actually, but they don't all get done at once.)

Yip and possibly all of next week.
That sucks!
Now why can't load shedding just happen during working hours
I love load shedding during the day. It's the night shed that kills me.
I agree with you fully. It why not at all. We were off from 18:00 to 20:30 this eve. That's relax timeThat sucks!

That sucks. Eskom is a major let down. Stage 3 load shedding just after they announced no more load shedding for December. Lol we have alot more of it coming our way
Now I can say YES. I'm prepared

Just want to say that Woolies saved the day. What a great store
Yesterday we went to this centre in Toti for lunch but power was cut as we arrived. Restaurants were limited to serving drinks and things like sushi only. No hot food.
We went to Woolies, they have a flagship type of store there - and obviously were running some serious generators because it appeared no different to how it looked a few days earlier when the power was on. Their ovens were working and they were serving their roast chickens and pies.
Needless to say, Woolies was packed - queues for checkout were very long - they were doing a roaring trade while the other shops sat in darkness

The market for generators is growing. There will not ever be a time when this government can manage such things properly. The flats where a friend of mine lived had a big generator installed, for the water pumps and the elevators. All the condos and "gated community" type places in India have generators.
