Rolling Blackouts ... again!!

The national electricity supplier, Eskom, euphemistically calls it 'load shedding'. Basically it means Eskom can't cope so just when you least expect it, the house is plunged into darkness. Tonight, I ended up doing my dishes by candlelight!

Dishes by candlelight? That almost sounds like it should be romantic, in a sort of Jane Austen way...but it probably wasn't.

Life sure takes on a whole new persepective with no electricity... I don't think I could manage living like that for more than a week or so :P
