Re: I thought I was ready...
It’s nothing for parts of Queenstown to be without power for 4-5 days. Also nothing for power to not come back on after loadshedding ends for a few hours. When there’s no electricity the water pressure drops and and eventually dries up. Municipality doesn’t (can’t afford to) keep electrical spares on hand so private individuals or businesses have to purchase spares when needed AND send vehicles 2-4 hours away to collect. If you don’t have a backup source for water and electricity in town you are in serious trouble. Municipal account with Eskom is over R500mil and grows monthly.
