The Sweet Service Award goes to Hazendal, and its Guest Relations Manager Willem van der Merwe, for showing Gary Peterson and I around the wine estate for 45 minutes, the time it took the kitchen to prepare a Russian Tea Ceremony for us at short notice. Willem is a mine of information about the 300 year plus history of Hazendal. He found us in the restaurant, and offered to show us around, without us asking for it. He is a fantastic ambassador for Hazendal.
The Sour Service Award goes to EbbTide Apartments 201, 101, and 202 in Camps Bay, rented out to rental clients permanently, all to Nigerians currently on a longer term basis. For the last four nights, or should I say early mornings at around 2h00, the tenant in Magali Segullon’s ,apartment has had 2 parties with full blast music, and let the alarm go off when he returned home during Curfew! Regular party animal Franklin in Sasha Jack’s apartment had a full blast party, with ten persons. I had to call the Camps Bay CSI and they called the police on three of the mornings! I report these Noise Disturbances to the respective owners, and they never apologise, let alone respond. They are just about making the money!
