Bit of a blow by all accounts Ed, Josh reckons there are huge trees down all over the place & over 65 power lines cut. :fingerscrossed: You all get power

Stay safe down there Eddie, it's not pleasant up here but we haven't been hit like you guys. More wild weather on the way apparently.

Tomorrow night is forecast to be worse than Sunday...

I no longer like avocados.... The tree needs lopping TONIGHT... I sat watching the paving slabs all around it moving yesterday.... The ground was like it was alive... Its hanging on by the skin of its teeth, but if HE cant get out there this evening it's going to take out either the laundry or the extension.... As it is it was 50 cm away from the extension and now I have constant sqeauking of the tree trunk rubbing on the roof edges... This is NOT good.....

Been throwing it down for two days (I think) and high winds here but nothing remotely like your area thankfully. We're eating leftovers because I couldn't be arsed to set foot outside.

Hope it's not as bad as they've been saying. Had a look at BOM earlier and the Radar was down :rolleyes: Well that's helpful, not!
