One Of Terry's Corners Of the Online World

Apparently, a fuse box in Benalla blew out and so Victoria is cut off from the Snowy Mountains Scheme. This means rolling blackouts on a day that is still topping 39 degrees centigrade. Humid too. Five minutes after we got home the power was shut off, so we ate our take away chook and salad under the verandah after which I played Baldur's Gate II on the laptop. Back on now, so we can cool the place a little and hook to the inkernet. I was close to cranking up (literally) my 78 rpm gramophone and playing records on it. We had a battery operated radio, so 774 ABC AM kept us up to date on the state-wide chaos. The house is slowly cooling down and Foxtel is up and running. Hopefully the electron juice won't go out again, but it might.
