When it comes to the Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority (ZESA) I reckon the gauge above would, and should be permanently in the red. How’s this: after a month of some of the worst power cuts we’ve ever had, ZESA estimates my bill. Do they estimate it down because they’ve provided F’All power? No, they estimate it UP.

Go on, make your mark.
