''The airline, which is a partnership between Kulula founder Gidon Novick and Global Aviation, is inspired by innovative tech-driven companies such as Uber.''
So now you phone your aeroplane to come and pick you up from your home ?

Hi ho, hi ho,
A warning for all to stay off the road as I’m heading home after a all night tiling session. Had a quick nap so now it’s time to hit the road before someone else does. Then I’m planning on having a marathon snoozing session. But getting a mega coffee first .

Drive safe! And enjoy your well deserved snooze-fest!
Yeah no. That's not how it really works.
Property is attached for non-payment. Attempts are made to sell the property privately (this option is always available to the mortgagee while they are not paying their bonds anyway). If these fail, property goes to auction. If the bids don't reach the amount of the outstanding bond (or an agreed upon loss level), the property is bought in by the bank for an amount that exceeds the highest bid - in this case, apparently R100. It's a book entry. Bank then attempts to sell the property off again and recover as much as possible.
From a legally due debt.
From someone who didn't pay their bond in the first place.
The process takes months and isn't as common as it used to be. Up until the property is legally attached, the owner ALWAYS has the option to sell, make some kind of profit, and repay outstanding debt. Banks don't arbitrarily attach properties because someone missed A payment. This is the culmination of months of pleading, negotiation and legal action.
I don't do consumer lending, but this is the general process.
Edit: news reporting on situations like this is generally pretty one-sided and the banks are constrained from comment due to client confidentiality, which is likewise pretty one sided. Banks aren't always the bad guys...

You should be more scared of Facebook than the COVID-19 Alert SA app
''We compared the permissions required by the COVID-19 Alert SA app with those required by one of the social platforms where the misinformation about the application spread most virulently – Facebook.''

Gautrain taxes: Critics have called by the Gautrain Agency CEO that motorists should pay more taxes – some of which should be used to expand the train system – as ‘laughable’ and simply not possible. They hold that motorists are actually over-taxed, contrary to the Gautrain’s comments, and adding more pressure is untenable. The agency has since clarified the CEO’s comments to say that it was in reference to carbon taxes and ways to mitigate the harm of congestion in cities. [EWN]
Not more than once a week good people!

New COVID-19 emergency number for South Africa
Jamie McKane22 September 2020
The Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) has issued a notice assigning the shortcode “139” to the national emergency COVID-19 hotline.
“The service code ‘139’ is mandated for COVID-19 national emergency services during the National State of Disaster,” ICASA stated in a government gazette dated 22 September.
“The Department of Health will be obliged to return the service code to the Authority within nine months after the termination of the National State of Disaster.”
The COVID-19 national emergency services centre can be accessed via phone call or SMS, and neither of these will incur any charges to the caller or sender.

Six months after a state of emergency was declared. Way to go, ICASA.
With new local lockdowns (including where i live) and fears of a new national lockdown on the horizon those selfish, divisive middle classes are at it again. I couldn't even purchase toilet paper yesterday due to those selfish pricks stocking up! Luckily i have about enough to last us until the beginning of next week but that's dangerously low!
