PWJ Posted August 23 Author Share Posted August 23 Just a heads-up for today. We had a huge earthquake right here in Muswellbrook at lunchtime yesterday (see link) that took out the power for a few hours and did plenty of damage. Another aftershock in the wee small hours last night. So if I disappear during the afternoon you may surmise that another has hit and the power is gone once again. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13772065/Denman-earthquake-NSW-trigger-power-outage.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
