Greenstone is,
without question,
a suburb which
suffers from a
multitude of damp
and waterproofing
issues. Whether
this is down to a
high water table
or sub-standard
and fast-tracked
construction is up
for debate.
ovember is a busy, busy month. Not only is Christmas within touching distance, meaning that gift shopping and preparing for all your Christmas festivities are top of
the agenda, but the schools are nearing the end of the final term too, so exam stress and making plans for the school holidays are also in order.
Across the country, November is also a busy month, and here in Johannesburg there is a lot to look forward to; it’s the Nike Soweto Marathon on the 6th, the FNB
Whiskey Live Festival from the 9th to the 11th, the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge on the 12th and the Sansui Summer Cup at Turffontein Racecourse on the 26th,
while popular alternative rock band Live will also be returning to perform in our country. For the shopping fanatics, Black Friday brings big savings from American
retailers, and in recent years, many South African companies have joined the trend. Black Friday is the Friday following Thanksgiving in the United States, and
many local retailers will offer Black Friday specials from November 24, so be on the lookout for great deals. Have a good month and enjoy the read!
