Frangipani Report post Posted January 17, 2007 (edited) Hi Eva, How are you going, just saw the news 200,000 homes blacked out because of the generators being burnt down by the bush fires. Thinking of you, take care. F xx <'> Edited January 24, 2007 by Frangipani Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eva Report post Posted January 17, 2007 Hi Frangipani! Well, yes the blackouts were pretty bad. It was 40 degrees yesterday and suddenly the power went. AS son who was finally happy using the computer, got a bit annoyed (understatement) but eventually we all settled down (I was freaking out because our house was getting hotter and hotter ) and the boys actually managed to amuse themselves with toys! Three and a half hours later the power was restored. Now the thing was, the experts were talking about 'load sharing' but I haven't read anywhere about any of the more affluent areas having THEIR power cut off so we could have some! At 10.30pm last night it was 34 degrees but the boys slept reallly well. Grumpy today though. (The smoke from the bushfires has been awful some days and the bushfires are still going strong). So that's about it in Victoria! How are things in NSW? I'm so over summer - I might move to Tasmania ! Cheers, Eva Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
