Interesting, thanks, that's news to me! I will double down on the vigilance in that case.

Sorry to hear that, hope they get you sorted out soon! I know they've been saying up to 10 days, but from keeping an eye on the outages map they're getting some of them fixed a lot faster than that.

We seem to be doing ok now, but I'm not sure if there's still another blast expected, it's calmed down a lot since earlier.

Hi there
@sumi
Sorry i didn't reply earlier but I lost my power but it's back now.
How are you doing?

We lost power here at around 13:45 today.
I was just sitting here and the power came back!
That's a big surprise as they are saying it may take 10 days for some people to get power again.

Not much damage here.
All of the chickens are fine,
But some led from one of my sheds began to come off,
So I fixed that!
Still windy though.
They are still estimating winds of around 90km/h tonight.

I will let you know how everything is tomorrow morning.

stay safe,
Fionn.

We're still off and hoping to be back on sometime tomorrow… Thank goodness for the laptop! But my battery is small. I'll check in again in the morning.
