Well, THAT was an experience.

Last Tuesday we were sent back 130 years in four hours, technologically. Well, 130, with splashings of tech thrown in. Thank fuck for generators. We had something resembling an inland tsunami cruise on by picking up anything in its road and generally killing it. Fortunately we are on a hill, but not so fortunate were many many people around us.

There's plenty I could talk about but what I want to forget outweighs that. It took a huge emotional toll but we came out the other end still kicking. The missus got a bit sick from it all and we're still working our way through that.

I've got some vids and pics of the disaster, but nothing TOO spectacular. Just lots of water.

Hope everyone is okay and I'm glad to have the net back. Win.

  9. Lots of water IS spectacular!

    You had some tweets for the ages during the floods. Brought the whole event down to a personal level.

    Hey, if you have enough power for a fridge, a sump pump or water pump, and a light, you can be living in high cotton while everything goes to pieces around you.

    Well done and glad to have you back!
