Oh the irony...

As we all may know by now, our lovely Power Struggle Supplier, Eskom, is at it again.

Last year's buzzword, Load Shedding (uughh, don't want to dwell on that word for to long), is now being implemented all around the country. To see when you should stock up on candles click here.

But the irony of the situation. Reading this article this morning on MG, Eskom will be alerting us ON TV, as to when to turn off our "non-essential" appliances.

"Orange indicates an electricity strain -- consumers are prompted to switch off non-essential appliances such as tumble dryers and dishwashers."

Um, does that mean we get to keep our TV's on all the time ?
