  As more Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are being localised, we are learning that
some fraction have persistent radio sources (PRSs). Such a discovery motivates
an improvement in our understanding of the nature of those counterparts, the
relation to the bursts themselves and why only some FRBs have PRSs. We report
on observations made of FRB 20121102A with the MeerKAT radio telescope. Across
five epochs, we detect the PRS associated with FRB 20121102A. Our observations
are split into a cluster of four epochs (MJD 58732 - 58764) and a separate
single epoch about 1000days later. The measured flux density is constant across
the first four observations but then decays by more than one-third in the final
observation. Our observations on MJD 58736 coincided with the detections of 11
bursts from FRB 20121102A by the MeerTRAP backend, seven of which we detected
in the image plane. We discuss the importance of image plane detections when
considering the commensal transient searches being performed with MeerKAT and
other radio facilities. We find that MeerKAT is so sensitive that within a
two-second image, we can detect any FRB with a flux density above 2.4mJy at
1.3GHz and so could localise every FRB that has been detected by CHIME to date.
