I'm calling it hopeful.

At first I had no idea where I was going with this sketch, it was just a shape. I let my fingers guide me.

It led me to a unicorn. I made the usual choice of a black background which I… https://t.co/zPBq9tPyN2

@TelkomZA I was double debited this month. I have been holding for your customer service for more than two hours. How can I reach you efficiently to rectify the situation? #PayBackTheMoney

@KenyaAirways I will definitely be giving feedback. Some staff were also unhelpful and unapologetic in the treatment of passengers. I still do not have my bags. I hope most of your flights are not like this.

[Gadeeja Abbas @Gadeeja_Abbas]

I am never flying @KenyaAirways again. Disgusting treatment of passengers, 12 hour delays and no apologies. Lost our luggage, canceled the flights they had rebooked due to delays on their side. We have been travelling for days and we have not yet arrived in Cape Town.

[letlhogonolo @mx_mokgoroane]

I made a submission yesterday why I support repealing section 6 of the Civil Union Act. This section, effectively, allows marriage officers who work at Home Affairs to refuse to marry same-sex couples.

@MoniqueMortlock A delayed response because I only saw this now! It's a pleasure. You braved the cold and wet weather, wading through a pool of water to cover a story. #Goals #Womandla

@TamsinShawn @antheafrederick @4everSiya @shamiela_fisher Please let us know when you are in Cape Town, we can have a get together in honour of your gracing our streets. ☺ We want to meet mini-me! Instagram does not do her justice.
