Thursday 16 September 2021, Day 4 of Level 2 😷

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#grateful for a very quiet industrious day, as one of my clients asked to postpone the status meetings to tomorrow, making tomorrow an action packed day; being able to catch up on writing work; for a call from Stuart Bailey, such a shock to hear about his health problems but he sounds like he is on the mend again; for a challenging walk up my favorite little Bakoven lanes, a route I haven’t done in ages, and seeing such beautiful flowers on the way; and for being happy, healthy and happy. 🙏💙 Continue reading →

Sweet Service Award goes to De Vleispaleis; Sour Service Award goes to EbbTide Apartment 201!

 

The Sweet Service Award goes to De Vleispaleis in Stellenbosch, and its owner Stuart Bailey, for creating a Byt Ready Meals food delivery service in Stellenbosch for his staff, to assist them in getting income in the time in which the restaurant is closed in accordance with Level 4 Lockdown regulations.  Given that the President is likely to extend Level 4 on Sunday, by a possible further two weeks, and that the Government has promised to provide TERS/UIF support but that such payment could be slow in coming, Stuart encouraged his staff to form a collective to offer basic home-cooked meals such as macaroni and cheese, lasagne, cottage pie, and chicken a la king for delivery, gave them the left-over fresh produce of the restaurant, offered them packaging material as well as the services of his design team, while he has closed De Vleispaleis until the Level 4 Lockdown is lifted.
