Just incredible! Space flight is the most inspiring and yet unbelievable feat by humans. Here’s to the new era of recycling space crafts....

When this is all over, take your holiday INSIDE South Africa, be a tourist in your city, buy from small SOUTH AFRICAN businesses. Go to local theatre, local comedy, small restaurants.
Support local like never before.

We will ALL need it. 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦❤️

The reason for no load shedding

[Anton Eberhard @AntonEberhard]

Electricity demand today in South Africa compared to a week ago. Will be even lower after lockdown. So one bit of relief in these difficult times: we’re unlikely to experience @Eskom_SA power cuts and load-shedding over next weeks

UPDATE: Two Oceans Marathon NPC has decided to cancel #TOM2020 in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Runner safety remains our primary concern and that cannot be guaranteed at this time. #KeepMoving #QhubekekaDeUfike
