Load shedding…. Currently the most fear inspiring word after “lockdown” in South Africa. Believe me... there is no one more punctual than Eskom's load shedding switch guy!
There is a price to live in our beautiful country, it doesn’t help to complain, you need to make the best of our corrupt government and institutions and try to make it work for you. Even though we sell our electricity to our neighboring countries, they pay even less for units than we do and never experience our dreaded load shedding, sitting hours without power, or even worse, without Wi-Fi and 2 teenagers in the house!
Therefore, when I learnt yesterday morning that we were going to spend the night with the neighbor’s generator humming in the background, I thought, what better way to embrace the darkness with a girlfriend, a lekker fire, crackling in the background, pizzas and of course, beers and Jägermeister!
Cheers to many more dark, drunken nights with friends!!!
Girls night in the dark!
