^Quite a nerve - wanting to deconstruct that bridge! We have a railway bridge here that trucks are perpetually getting stuck under. Nobody bothers to read the height restrictions which are plastered all over the place, big and bold. Even if they did, I'm not sure some of the drivers would know the height of their vehicles in any event!!
^^We have been spared loadshedding this evening because the outages have affected our water supply – the pumps being out of action resulting in the reservoirs emptying without refilling sufficiently (jeez - this is not rocket science!) so most of the town has had no water today. There’s the small matter of waste treatment plants in the mix as well – the knock-on effects of this failure are endless and potentially extremely unpleasant! Sure similar issues must be occurring all over the country. Eeeek! On the upside – the bokkies just beat Wales!
