Nice, Vodacom

Just as I was about to start going on about how fucking expensive a Vodacom 3G card contract is, they harden the fuck up and reduce their rates. If you, like me, use a 3G card you should be quite happy from the 1st of April. Because if you are a contract subscriber, the price automatically reduces for you, and not only for new subscribers. Even better, are the prices. My 3G card is really quick on the internet and so it's kind of a better deal than ADSL. Mind you, I don't know what ADSL costs but I know it's quite a lot. Now all we need is for Telkom to harden the fuck up, reduce their CEO's multi million rand salary, and we will all be happier.

New prices:

MY MEG 500: Was R350
Now: R249

MY GIG 1: Was R599
Now: R349

MY GIG 2: Was R1098
Now: R449

So well done Vodacom. Next is to offer us unlimited GIGS! That would be great. But we all know you are too shrewd for that. So are you Telkom, so are you.

NB: I do intend writing a piece on the Argus Cycle Tour yesterday, but I want nothing to do with cycling for a while now. Now I have to start training for the Two Oceans Half Marathon. Great.

I did a 4:38 time yesterday, not great, but about half way through the ride I was just wanting to finish in under 6 hours. I was so beat I could not really thing straight anymore.
