Listen, you looked unflappable at 60. Like, was it even tough? Xx
Nothing more to do. I can't sleep. So I'm listening to music and hope to snooze soon. I am digging very deep. It's been 8 years since I last ran. May the 7th one be a ....happy ending. Thank you ALL for your love and kindness.

Hello @Leon_Schreib why does the online passport renewal portal penalise you R600 when applying for a new passport when your old one has less than 6 months validity left but in person you don’t get the “fine”?

Congrats @derekalberts1 & Kat on celebrating such a big milestone. She’s one and you made it! Co-sleeping, eating transitions & finding the courage to leave her at daycare. #albertsfam #brave

What a team. ⭐️
Last FM deadline. 😢It's been a blast & an honour to work on a publication with such a rich history, and as fine a team, as ours. Their care & dedication is special. A mention to the incomparable Dave Landau, hanging up his boots after 30 years. And thank you, dear readers 🙏

I guess just major anxiety as No comms from @cathaypacific and all helplines crashing because of consumer load.
Easy. The plane is already in JNB. Ideally the plane needs to come back to go elsewhere and flight ops are fine tuning to ensure safe arrival as close to airport opening as possible

No response from @cathaypacific for 24 hours as a flight from Joburg keeps getting delayed with an expected arrival now at 12pm Hong Kong time on Saturday. Why not just move the flight by a day instead of a few hours delay multiple times.
Replying to @AirEVthingTRNSP
But ultimately, that is why flights are suspended for a broad period based on the conditions. As is the case now, there is no Airport Express, and definitely treacherous/dangerous to get to/from airport by road.

Hi @cathaypacific 1.5 hours on call centre, no update on flights and a typhoon. When will you confirm flights being cancelled?

They take criticism well then @David_Isaacson
This morning Cheryl Winn, matriarch of #Comrades (& former winner & CMA chairperson), posted a comment expressing her disappointment with the lack of responsibility shown by RD Rowyn James last night on @carteblanchetv. Winn's access to CMA was revoked immediately thereafter.

Well that’s awkies @ComradesRace cc @David_Isaacson
Yesterday I got a call from #Comrades Chair Mqondisi Ngcobo. He apologized for comments of RD Rowyn James. I said I didn’t need an apology but the running community did. All good. Today: I see I'm blocked on Twitter. Not sure that everyone is as apologetic as you are Mr. Chair.

Hello @BradNadauld there was a guy who you referred us to years ago at the Sweat Shop in Dunkeld for a shoe/foot assessment. Tryna pass on the recommendation but can’t remember his name. Pleeeeease help. 🙏🏼

Sherwood. This is not good. Of 1018 runners that crossed this mat within the 10 minutes before the cutoff, 1010 earned a finish medal. The success rates here are still way too high to be stopping runners. Something to be avoided in future. Required pace to make it: ~8:07/km

#Comrades2023 final cutoff gun fires 5s too early and robs runners of a medal (pause at 13s). I also found it rather disturbing observing the enthusiasm, zeal and outright glee with which the cutoff constables executed the orders in closing the gates. #Comrades
