Shaun Pollock 🤝 Steven Kitshoff.

Giving us red heads the street cred we desperately need 😅

Who will take over the role now that Kitsie is retiring?

In what feels like a big deal, I am appearing before the national energy regulator of SA's Electricity Subcommittee on behalf of the South African Solar PV industry ☀️🇿🇦

The national utility has proposed significant tariff structure changes that impact Solar PV generators and customers.

A toss up between these 2 images. 1995 as the origin story and 2023 as a full circle moment.

(Sorry 2007 and 2019) 😅

Lekker white blend from Noble hill. Textural with layers of fruit and a decent acid backbone. ABV of only 12.5% makes it very smashable indeed.

Marsanne, Grenache Blanc, Chenin Blanc and Viognier.

Went really well with a mild butter chicken.

Strong #springbok lineup to face England at Twickenham.

5-3 split after all the Nuke squad chatter during the week 👀

Handré on the bench as insurance policy for Manie's goal kicking.

Really looking forward to this one. ABE!

One key place for information on the South African renewables roll out is the national energy regulator's registration database.

At SAPVIA we've made the raw data slightly more palatable. Check out the registration dashboard here: sapvia.co.za/nersa-regist...
