You're lucky to have gas cooking @Shaz51 . I had a power outage a few weeks ago and couldn't even boil a kettle.

@Dimity , if i was by myself I would not know what to do so i would be the same as you
remembering when i was single and mum and i went through a few cyclones and when we had no power , we ate tin food

That would be hard @Shaz51 . Years ago there was no gas here for a couple of months so no hot water except a jug at a time.
Are there still supermarket shortages?

some @Dimity but not as bad as the west, inland queensland
and also if there is a cyclone everyone goes and buys before it
so hoping we just have rain and no cyclone
