Our neighbors Benny & Lianne.
Niks water nie – a big truck crashed into a ditch and broke the main main sweetwater pipe to our (and some other) villages. We regularly have no water for up to half a day, and everyone is prepared for that with metsi stored in jerry cans. Now this ga gona metsi situation takes longer, and when the stored water is finished we all hope it’s just our neighbourhood and start walking down the road to restock – in vain. At the end of the day water affairs drives around the villages, announcing the ‘pompo’ is broken and only will be fixed tomorrow. This is by the way how we get all the really ‘need to know’ information; a megaphone car drives around the village making announcements.
