Yes a tad annoying @StuF I have a large water supply to draw on plus candles and torch as part of preparedness. The battery on my phone was running out and no notifications from Ausnet about the delay until much later in the evening. I do have a solar phone charger but its old and no longer works so have to buy another. I really have to keep up to date about my preparedness devices. It was a good test run to see what could go wrong under an extended outage. The whole area was blacked out and I wondered if a car hit a hydrant and brought down electricity wires? Who knows!

@TAB @Bunniekins I have gas cooking still, plus other cooking options like camping solar oven and rocket stove that uses firewood. Got to get more Dolphin lamps. It was 31 degrees until about 3pm. Don't want to be without aircon during a power outage. Today was ok but the utilities are going to get even more outages over summer - read it in The Age
