Sunday, 12 May 2019 at 11:15 – UPDATE ON THE WATER SUPPLY/LEAKS IN PRINGLE BAY
Confirmation has been received that the leak at Oliver/Olga Rds in Pringle Bay has been attended to and the water supply there is now restored.
Residents in the area may experience a somewhat reduced flow at first, but that will increase as the water pressure starts to build.
Your patience during the time of repair is greatly appreciated.
Many thanks and best regards.

Saturday, 11 May 2019 at 12:30 PIPE BURSTS/WATER SUPPLY ISSUES PRINGLE BAY
Residents in the Pringle Bay Area are advised that as at 12:18 today all reported pipe bursts in the neighbourhood have been attended to and the necessary repairs concluded.
Similarly, all the relevant valves have been opened along the pipe way and, as was stated in an earlier communication, the system is currently being bled.
However, while the water supply has been restored residents should be aware that for the next while the water flow will be somewhat reduced and at a low pressure due to open scour valves.
Again, the Overstrand Municipality apologises for the inconvenience caused.
Many thanks and best regards.

Perigators close thier doors with a final goodbye party.
Last night saw the last of Perigators with a party that was attended by many. Just the turnout showed the respect and thanks that everyone has for Perigators, the staff and Ali. People came from all over to express thier thanks for what has been there for 8 years.
Not only did Perigators have the best pizza in the world but was the draw card of entertainment in the area. I think many artists can be thankful for the platform that Perigators gave them in the start of their careers.
Going to Perigators was always like arriving home. Being greeted by all and if you had not been there for a while it was like the lost family member coming home. Ali, Gysie and all the staff made it this special place. The loss of this iconic business is a loss to the Pringle Bay community. So many other business have benefited from the what has been there. With the shows many people may not have eaten at Perigators but gone to another restaurant before or after. At closing time people moved onto another pub or bar.
The Pringle Bay Festival saw another aspect of Perigators with providing the Entertainment tent over the past 3 years. This always brought the music to the festival an important aspect of the village.
Thank you Ali for what you have brought to the community over the past years and for an exceptional business. Thank you to all the staff of Perigators. We going to miss you.

Please help us save our Whale. The whale carcass has washed up again on our rocks. Alison Evans has applied for a permit so that she can have the bones to later reconstruct a whale skeleton in Pringle Bay to serve as both a tourist attraction and an educational display, which will be good for Pringle as a community.
Someone has already taken something from the Whale in a black bag – if enough people do this, we won’t be able to take on this task… so as a community, we are asking if you could all act as patrol people and keep an eye out and help us protect what is left – the beach is the best place for the process to begin – so ideally he needs to stay there for as long as possible.
Should you see anyone fiddling, please feel free to phone Alison on 082 650 3690 or please approach them and appeal to their sense of decency and ask them to leave it be.
We will remove the bones as soon as is possilbe.
Thanks a million
