… and what is the ‘Dead BC’ reporting through the tension..?
Not that long ago all the Dead BC (ZBC) had was a programme about dolphins. No kidding! Maybe its an attempt to calm the mood?
But headlines now are that 140 results have been declared. We have reported 141 but maybe ZTV aren’t including the one unopposed seat.
ZBC is also saying that “Zimbabweans must maintain peace, that the army is on high alert”.
This sms flying around: “apparently we all need to be watching zbc at 8.30pm. apparently good news, but we will have to wait and see.”
So, I got my sms, I ran to the shower, I washed my hair, I put on my favourite MDC T-shirt from the 2005 elections. It reads, “a new zimbabwe, a new beginning“.
Even if we have to wait a little longer than 8.30, the energy right now is worth it.

What’s the time difference? 8.30 should have come and gone. It is 7.20 here.
I put a link to a wildlife video of comatose lions mating on my site to while away the time!!

Just think what a pleasure it will be to have a free and lively and open ZBC again! a real Zed b c instead of a dead b c… hooray!

Sheit - the waiting is unbearable. We’re in Jhb, without DSTV, so have to rely on SABC, and the tension and excitment are clashing horribly in our minds! May I NEVER EVER HEAR PAMBERI NE JONGWE again!

I waited patiently for any good news….but nothing on ZBC. Saw a film about how to raise tortoises though…bloody good. Tc I am in zim, right where the action is and I am hearing strained cries of a cock crowing in the distance. I am not being pessimistic but I guess this is what happens when you live in a country with one person who wants to leave the state house in a COFFIN to be buried at the HEROES ACRE!!!!
