@Brendennel Jou update laat middag se audio track is so bietjie 'scrambled'. Klink asof ander comms op dieselfde golflengte met jul opname ingemeng het. Ek wou jou DM maar X sê daar's iets fout met jou 'message settings'? Sien skermgreep.

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

@Brendennel ...nie verwant...

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

@Brendennel Can't DM. But verwant, maar jy mag dalk belang stel. Dankie vir die 'pod'. Lekker om na ervare joernaliste en afrigters te luister, asook jou gaste. https://t.co/tESrMMehOT

@RassieRugby maybe consider symbolic gesture at Eden Park game to acknowledge the '81 protestors? ...I watched those events unfold as 11-year old in grainy satelite broadcast. It was unpopular in both countries at the time - but principled and brave. Sorely needed at the time.

@CityofCT Re pipe burst at 81 Schabort, Bethanie. Neighborhood now almost 24 hours without water. Water was cut off and no action since? 'In Progress' but nothing happening. (Subscription Ref: 9120514924)

Paris. WOW.

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

@ProteasMenCSA proud of you!

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

@ComradesRace are you aware of the hundreds of runners that have been waiting for our busses back to Durban for two hours?

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

@MKBHD @elonmusk Heads up. About 4 mins into your bid the sound/lip synching is completely off.

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

@MKBHD heads up. Your YT vid on Twitter. About 4mins in the sound/lip synching is completely off.

When your fallback candidate is Boris Johnson...

@FlySafair I got into site from waiting room at last. I'm using 'low fare finder' tick box, but whenever I submit a search ('lets go' button), the page simply refreshes/resets?

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

@StellMun so I parked early, no attendants, and in returning to my vehicle there's a bar code slip. Still no attendants & scanning bar code leads nowhere. How do I pay...?

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

...on German military...

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

@kbennhold your story in German military readiness refers. The photograph headlining the article on the NYT app is not "a tank" as captioned. My best guess, it's an APV/APC (armoured personnel carrier).

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

@INechepurenko & @antontroian your NYT article refers. The vehicle in the top picture is not a 'tank', but rather an armored vehicle. Likely a BRDM. https://t.co/PU1UDnd8oa

@walmsleyruns @RealBongmusa_ @N_Mhlakwana The South African road and trail running communities are elated to have had you here. Can't wait for your next visit. Comrades Marathon in future perhaps?!

[Mike Smuts @inside_rsa]

@ultraashworth is such a gem on our running scene. Brave to tackle technical trail! How amazing that @UltratrailCT got both Jim Walmsley & Courtney Dauwalter to participate. And a 100mi section in 2022! Amazing.

Persuasion is no longer a viable policy option given the danger posed to us all by the anti-vaxxers. It is time to mandate vaccinations for both citizens and the undocumented

The country's largest trade union federation, Cosatu, has changed its stance and now supports mandatory Covid-19 vaccination. | @Fin24
