SOmething is most definetely up... the town feels empty, At the shop we can see a marked decrease in customers in the shop.... the streets do not seem as full as they were, the bars ar quieter..... is this the end, that we always heard about.....?

Hang in there, the re-awakening will happen once the Government, Namdeb & the Arabian Sheik has done their dealings.
This time of the year - May & June - always seem to have a sort of slowdown regarding trades and deals. Even nature seems to slow down a bit in all aspects - except China - they got a good shake up 3 days ago!
We are seeing it in our industry .. consumer packaging .. we were awarded a contract for shrinkfilm for Savannah 6 pack .. 30 tons a month !! with the way things are going we were expecting the increases in everything to have a knock on effect 2 - 3 months from now ... maybe a bit of a slowdown with winter ... last fuel prices and more interest rate hikes are rining loud .. people are finally getting the message . slow down on the spending .. our customer has now told us to cut back to 15 tons a month untill further notice .. we wait and see ... we are going to be going through some interesting times .. my heart goes out to the unemployed .. and also the " working poor " as they have been termed .. the + - 8 % wage increases are now worth Gaai .. I see demands for 12 % + becoming a conscienable reality..
I dunno, Mike, I thought the Don was pretty hectic on Tuesday night (as you would well know!). It might have quietened down when you left at 02:00 but I was long gone - in the literal sense - by then! The only thing I don't see much of any more are Cheetah & Bull supporters...not even at SPAR!
