As I drove through Gunning last Friday night, the Land Rover sucked all the power out of the air and the town went black. True. I arrived in town and the lights were on. As I drove past the café which was crowded, the town went dark
When I arrived at Yass, it was pitch black and almost impossible to see where I was going in the main street (the County's lights aren't a patch on those of the P38A).

Yea there were 4 power losses in a row that weekend. Each lasted up to a couple of hours.

With BB you won't know yourself. I'm fairly sure this computer would exit this building through the window if I ever had to go back to dialup 8O :oops:
