Latest News
As can be seen in our list of closed
businesses below, Nedbank is now joining Standard Bank in closing its branches.
At least, it has closed the one in The Square, Sunninghill.
Let's hope it's not a trend. We now have no Nedbanks and no Standard Banks
in Sunninghill. Your closest Nedbank is in Rivonia, and your closest Standard
Bank is as far afield as Woodmead. Sunninghill still has an FNB in Chilli
Lane and an Absa in Sunninghill Village.
Seen any video-hire shops lately? No? They are also a dying breed. So,
congratulations to Video Hub who
opened in The Square Sunninghill two months ago. We hope they survive!

Restaurant Reviews by Judith Back to top
***** Pappadums, Morning Glen Mall
As always, our favourite place and Sharon knows our needs! Tried Doolhof Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc for the first time and can recommend it. Lassi Mango is my partner's favourite drink here. A medium Chicken Tikka and a mild Tadka Dal were enjoyed as well.
Contact Details for Pappadums. Back to top
**** Ocean Basket, Morningview Shopping Centre
One of our favourite Ocean Baskets, stopped off for calamari and their famous Fish, with butternut and spinach. Drinks were house white wine and Appletiser. Service was good and the restaurant was busy. Great place to go with the family.

Funny Language, English...
Despite what many
people think, "enormity" does not mean "really big", it means "the great or
extreme scale, seriousness, or extent of something perceived as bad or morally
wrong", or "a grave crime or sin". The illiterates at Microsoft Windows
Spotlight recently referred to "the enormity and beauty" of the mountain
Kangchenjunga (the 3rd-highest mountain in the world, and highest in India):
Possibly the world's first terribly bad and morally wrong natural feature!

Rand Water Major Shutdown: Don’t Panic (Yet)!
Johannesburg Water advises all residents of the City of Johannesburg that Rand
Water which is our bulk water supplier will be conducting maintenance on some of
their main lines that will affect supply to all City of Johannesburg reservoirs
and towers for 54 hours from Monday 24 June 2019.
Please note that this does not necessarily mean that there will be no water during the
54 hours shutdown period, however, due to the extremely long hours, some areas
may experience low pressure. Our Reservoirs have the capacity to supply for a
maximum of two days at a time and the system will not run out of water as we
will still get limited supply from Rand Water.
Johannesburg Water appeals to all residents of the City of Johannesburg not to
panic and continue to use water sparingly during the shutdown in order to avoid
a complete no-water situation and reminds all customers that level 1 water
restrictions are still in place.
Report all leaks to the Call Centre on 011 375 5555 and follow our social media pages
for regular updates.

"Did
you know that we can now get black wine?"
"That sounds strange but –I don't know– maybe using black grapes... where did
you hear about it?"
"Just a few days ago, I heard a radio interview with SA's first black wine maker!" |
