  • Sales and Client Services: Joy Lambie ❶

    082 389 2024 / (044) 343 2415

    Joy has been with The EDGE for five years and certainly is an integral part of the team. Energetically handling advertising inquiries, chasing artwork, keeping clients happy and heading off to source new business from George to Knysna, her positivity and faith in humankind is more than admirable.

  • Proof Reader: Nikki Jones ❷

    (No dialogue shall be entered into).

    After more than ten years wielding her red pen at The EDGE, Nikki is not only passionate about making sure our ‘i’s are dotted and ‘t’s crossed- she also assists in assessing what is and isn’t suitable for reading consumption in a community newspaper.

  • Accounts and Classifieds: Margie Mather ❸

    (044) 3432415

    With 15 years at The EDGE Margie is the backbone of the business, and normally the voice of sanity that keeps it on track and viable as a newspaper. She not only handles all the figure work, billing and money collection, but also manages the office, keeps the rest of us in line (almost) and controls the classified advertising. When deadline day is on – she gets stuck in and assists with page make up too. (Possibly the only bookkeeper in the world who is proficient in Corel Draw!)

  • ❹ Design and Layout: Kelly Webb

    (044) 343 2415

    Co-owner of The EDGE since its inception in 1998, Kel is responsible for advert design as well as the layout of the newspaper up to print stage. She stares seemingly impossible deadlines in the face without breaking a sweat, even when they whoosh past, and somehow always comes up trumps with a great looking paper.

  • ❺ Editor and lifter of heavy things: Bomber Webb

    072 516 4701 / (044) 343 2415

    Having been the only man on the team since day one, Bomber has learnt to keep his head down when the pressure is on. He writes most of the leading news articles in The EDGE, and, where necessary, assists with the design. He tries to manage the company too, when the ladies let him.

  • The Others

    The EDGE also has a large group of ‘unnofficial’ team players who are a huge part of the paper’s success and longevity. Without its regular columnists, photographic submissions and story-seekers from the community, The EDGE would certainly not be the paper it is today.

PREPAID METER TID ROLLOVER DEADLINE LOOMS.Acting Knysna Municipal Manager Setloane Malepeng said that the municipality is wrapping up the process of updating the software for prepaid meters as part of the national Token Identifier (TID) rollover. “All consumers are reminded that this update must be completed by the deadline of 24 November 2024 to prevent disruptions to their supply,” he said.To recode your meter, follow these three simple steps:First enter the first 20-digit recode token.Next enter the second 20-digit recode token.Finally enter the 20-digit purchased token to recharge your meter.“Consumers are urged to take the necessary steps to ensure their meters are updated by the deadline,” Malepeng reminded residents. “It is crucial to load all current tokens before the update, as no refunds will be issued for unused tokens. If your meter has not been updated, please contact the electricity department before close of business on Friday 22 November.”“We have encountered a technical issue affecting fewer than 80 Plessey electricity meters, which are unable to accept the necessary upgrade,” he explained. “Affected consumers are advised to load additional units immediately to ensure they have sufficient supply until their meters can be replaced. For those for whom this is not a feasible option, a conventional meter will be installed at no cost to the consumer.”“The upgrade process should proceed as planned in all other cases,” Malepeng concluded. “Consumers who need assistance, or are unsure of how to update their meters, are encouraged to promptly contact the electricity department at 044 302 6397 or 044 3026 399 for assistance.“This is an essential update, and we urge all residents to act quickly to ensure uninterrupted electricity service. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.”To check if your prepaid meter is updated, enter the following code on your meter’s keypad: 1844 6744 0738 4377 2416. If the screen displays a 2 or 2.2, your meter has already been upgraded. If your screen displays a 1 or 1.1, your meter must still be upgraded.Knysna Municipality Communications Department ...
