So far my certificates have cost me:

Gas: R440 (includes copper pipe)
Electricity: R3,619 (includes trip breaker and 2x Schuco plugs with USB and C)

So far cheaper than my last move 13 years ago.

I managed to reuse mine as I was there less than two years so most were still valid except water, but they reissued it for R750.

Wtf is a water coc anyway ffs!?

CoCs: electricity, gas, water, electric fence, solar electricity, beetle.

Strangely no beetle coc in Cape Town, have to do it in Hermanus.

It has been more than a week now since I had any coffee. I feel better for not drinking the stuff nigh compulsively.
I have read that caffeine causes constriction of blood vessels in the brain, so reduction may well be why I think I am functioning better.
[Not struggling to remember short sequences of numbers in tender numbers, for example. Also getting through work somewhat sooner. Hope the boss doesn't notice that and reduce my work hours!]
