Mate of mine, cycling home Sat morning across the Cambridge road bridge, came across a taxi, on it's side halfway through a garden wall. A lot of the passengers were sitting dazed on the side of the road. As the ER24 offices are just across the bridge, he cycled there and met an ER24 'person' in ER24 overalls standing outside the ER24 office. He duly told her that there was an accident around the corner and that he was not sure if anyone had contacted them yet. She told him to phone 084 124. When he asked if this was their office, she said Ja but that she was on a break........

 

No flipping ways .. that person needs to be reported

Eskom would like to remind their customers that it is not politically correct to refer to power failures as "black outs".

 

Please refer to "previously lit areas".

 

Thank you.
