`'Africa/Johannesburg'` is (as you say) GMT+2, so there's your 7. Best
guess is that your settings aren't applied as you think they are.

Thank for you that extra insight, I will see if I can isolate it and make
a sample project.
It appears as though the setting is applied to me:
{{{
$ python manage.py shell
Python 3.9.2 (default, Feb 28 2021, 17:03:44)
[GCC 10.2.1 20210110] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>> from django.conf import settings
>>> settings.TIME_ZONE
'Africa/Johannesburg'
}}}
I will try think of what else I can do.
