It's the term they use for Power Cuts....Out of the last 90 days we have our power cut off for 48 days.... 3 Times a day for 2 and a half hours...we now going into what they call Stage 6 which means the grid is short of 6000MW..So now we having the power cut 4 Times a day....We live in a fucking Banana republic....Don't take what you have for granted.....🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 If you want more info google Loadshedding in South Africa.....

The fucking cause is this fucking Black ANC government....NO maintenance since 2008...plus every fucking year we have "Strike Season"....They busy striking for a 15 % increase while 40% of the country are unemployed....We have 50000 MW capacity but at any one time we are short of +- 20000MW due to breakdowns.....I am so fucking angry I can't even tell you....Our indigenous population are as thick as fucking pigshit and don't understand Economics....They fired all the White Engineers with historical knowledge of the grid and replaced them with fresh black engineers who don't know ANYTHING......My roots are I was born here(English speaking) but we can speak Afrikaans.....
that sounds like a horrible way to live:( are you able to move?
Finances are a problem..... Our currency is worth shit....In the late 80s 1$ was worth ZAR 0.76.....Now 1$ gets you ZAR 15.85....The SA Rand was worth more than the $ then....
I worked with a bunch of SA handling bomb dogs in iraq.. loved those guys.
Whoee mora! (Sp) good morning
haha...We are good people...Goeie More..😉
Lol... No... Believe it or not I only learned enough Afrikaans to pass school...When I went to the Netherlands (Lived there for 20 yrs) it helped me learn Dutch...So now when someone talks Afrikaans I hear it in Dutch which I then try to translate into Afrikaans....if that makes sense.....And I will NEVER give up....
