The Sweet Service Award goes to Audi in the Waterfront, for having returned after an absence of a year or so, after having moved to Century City. They now have a shared facility in the same building with VW, which meant that I could easily go there to have my tyre pressure message removed (still cannot do it after 5 years), and a new battery fitted in my key, at no charge and within 10 minutes. The only thing that is missing there is the fabulous former Service Manager Hennie Kriel, who has left the company.
The Sour Service Award goes to ESKOM, for its continuous Loadshedding, going up to Stage 4 yesterday! Not only is it bad enough for writing to be without power, but it is also announced last minute. Luckily Capetonians benefit from the City of Cape Town often having spare capacity, which brings it down a Stage, sometimes allowing us to escape Loadshedding.
