My candlelight dinner

Lukewarm coffee and cold pizza... and I picked up the candle from the waste heap close to the house the other day... I guess I saved it for a rainy day.. somehow I did I know that it would come soon. But this time it did not have to rain.... just the sight of clouds... that's all it took for the electricity to trip...

I feel for my learners who study most effectively when it's quiet and everyone is sleeping, radio's are off and cars safely parked behind the houses and so-called "shacks" which I call homes

A few weeks back we went on a service delivery protest and they said we don't pay for municipal services but at least we buy electricity. Why is it so difficult for us to get the quality services especially if we pay for them?

If we pay for electricity and you fail to ensure that we have it when we have units. How can you assure us that we will have other services even after we pay for them?
