Yes! Every day this week we have had a power outage of at least 1-2 hours. Fortunately we have a generator, but obviously it can’t run the whole building’s air con system as well, so we have had a rather warm and stuffy start to each day. Here’s hoping the municipality can sort out this “cable fault” SOON!
