I will respond to these messages tomorrow when I have access to proper
internet, because my current connection is very unstable. A few important
points:
1) I do not agree with the times you posted as to when these messages were sent
and received.
2) I did not receive a message from you mentioning that you were stuck in
traffic. Either way, we still waited 30 minutes for you.
3) Earlier that day you changed the time of our initial meeting, so it was
possible that your meetings could have changed again.
4) You claim that we changed the schedule of the meeting. I cannot see how you
got to this conclusion.
As I have said, I will respond thoroughly tomorrow. For now I just want
everyone to have the correct facts. If needed I will provide a database dump of
my text messages of that day to confirm. In addition Dumisani can confirm
these, but his word will probably be not a reliable source according to "our
scheming against you". It is above my intelligence to understand as to why we
would want to waste our time on something like that.
