No power in my place

No power in my place

Damn!

Plenty power here. *rubs woody item*

I see that you have a cold can of drink with you in the water, misi. You look mesmarised by the heat

How's mum, bro and yerself handling this warm spell?

 

[foxidrive]

We're ok with A/C thanks.

It drags the temp down to 30 C but that's far better than 40+ indoors! How about you, and misi and okee? Spyke skipped the state, lucky him.

How did misi go with no power? Was it a long spell?

Back now.

 

[foxidrive]

Back now.

Over three hours? I recommend a big cool drink and air conditioned comfort.

I timed getting in my new air conditioner well.....just in time. Keeps computer cool too.
45℃ here for today - Friday.

 

[foxidrive]

That's fantastic okee.

I was reading of a guy in a rental property and he rang the agent every day for the last two weeks to get the air conditioner fixed. The tech comes on Monday.

Life is good in beautiful cool Brisbane.. We even have electrickery !
misi, a couple of Dog Forum members near you were also saying they had no power for a few hours.

It's 26.3 C outside, 29.5 inside.
I didn't start the AC last night.
I hope that the change will arrive tonight.

 

[foxidrive]

30.6 C at 7am

I got the bedrooms and in here down to 25 degrees overnight so if we don't have a power cut then it should be ok today. 44 C predicted. 23 C tomorrow and the day after.

 

[misi]

AC is working with full steam.
43.9 outside 29.6 inside.
That's fine!

 

[foxidrive]

Much the same in Chateau Clayton. The cool change is on it's way - shame about the fires all over the country.

It's a real shame that it's repeating every year.

39.6 C in my backyard. Seems the cool change really is on its way.

Edit at 17:38 : 35.9 C

Just heard on the news that there are 70 fires across the State. Poor buggers in the heat.

And seems many of those fires were lit by firebugs.

 

[foxidrive]

firebugs should be lined up and shot. grr

 

[misi]

I don't agree.
IMO they should be put to a field of dry grass and lit fire around them.

We're OK after a scary day, now outside reeks of burnt wood from the Grampians. 1 life lost there

 

[foxidrive]

You're both ok and the boys. That's the blessing.

Heartbreaking Fires !

misi's idea has merit.
