RE: Steemit Sandwich Contest Week #85 - Hot Cross Bun Ice Cream Sandwich
Thank you @tattoodjay, they fortunately have a schedule and stick to it so we can plan around it. There's 4 stages and we're only affected from Stage 3 & 4 which is only happening now, but luckily just two hours a day, the 18:00-20:00 is the worst time. We have not really felt the loadshedding while it was Stages 1 & 2 so have not bothered with a generator, may have to look at that as they say our power utility (Eskom) really is in a bad state, lack of maintenance, awarding contracts to buddies who are not providing coal etc etc!!!
Our pipe burst was the worst though!

Having a planned schedule makes it easier to work around I guess but still must be frustrating
Load-shedding in Johannesburg they are being hit twice a day, four and a half hours at a time, we have been fortunate at twice a day for two hour stretches sometimes a little longer Lizelle.
My sons told me that it sometimes even goes off for longer than that! We're very fortunate, somehow we're in an industrial block yet have no industries near us, two petrol stations yes, so we only go off from Stage 3 onwards and then it's once a day only, not complaining about that!
