Margaret Watkins asked Elsabé Welman:

Thank you for consistently "liking" my reviews. I do appreciate it. I also hope you are staying warm, as I understand you are experiencing much colder weather than we are in Pretoria at the moment? We fortunately have a very old-fashioned anthracite heater, which is performing well and we are fortunate that we do not have to depend on electricity or gas to stay warm!

Elsabé Welman Hi Margaret. When I see your name, I know what genre's review will follow. It puts a smile on my face to recognise what each reader prefers. And with your record of reviews, one also know that you do have expierence. The cold... it's strange, but it seems that Gauteng has the same cold as here in Eastern Cape this time around. According to the weather forecast, Jhb is colder than the Karoo today. And it snowed there. We had snow all around us in the mountains, but not in Middelburg town. But yes, your anthracite heater is a winner. With loadshedding, we either use the fireplace or a hot waterbottle on my lap. And always, when i'm furious with Escom, I remember there are many people who has neither, not even blankets. Thanks for making contact, and happy reading!
