Post by: Michael Alexander on October 15, 2010, 08:05:48 AM
Folks, don't forget...

"POWER OUTAGE!

When:                          Sunday, 17 October 2010, 08h00-16h00

Areas Affected:            Southern Coastal (MA1), whole of town.   

Reason:                       Shutdown required to do maintenance on the Namdeb High Tension Power Network. 


Please use water sparingly and remember to treat all power outlets as live as the power might be switched on earlier than planned.

Remember the days when these events were called plain and simple Power Cuts..... wonder where the term Outage came from?

Me got the same thought here  -  Eskom are hanging a few blokes on the lines, so our power will also be out on Sunday ...  still got kudu, so a game potjie it's going to be ....   me thinks a few dumplings into the cream sauce might just fill us up good.
