Hope everyone and their family's are safe though all the bush fires going on

+1 nasty shit at the moment.

Was a bit worried about my dad, supposed to travel down the Hume on his own today but luckily he decided to wait a bit until this heat has subsided.

Yeah hope everyone is ok. Really bad conditions out there.

Stupid power has been going on and off in my suburb. I had a shower by candlelight hahaha.. how romantic

No 3G here either

Minor inconvenience though, compared to people in actual fire areas!

[Deziner]

I guess if anyone needs a hand for fire prep etc. give a shout out here and someone will give a hand if needed. Happy to help myself if needed.

Yeah power went out in Bundah aswell and at work in fyshwick but like you said only a small issue compared to the fires and Kay your dad is a wise man

Currently down the coast it's about 20min away.

Hope a southerly change comes and it goes away.

Everyone stay safe

i think about buying a generator every year in the fire season

im sure i will next year too, i should just go get one.

Pump, tank and generator is a good combo to have.

While I'm nearly certain there's not much threat at this stage to houses in the ACT, should shit turn sour I'm happy to help people if needed! I highly doubt it will come to it, but if it gets to the point of anyone being evacuated from their residences, happy to use my van to help people pack the shit they want to take with them!

It's only rape if they say "no", and the duct tape does a great job at making sure they can't.

[D.I.Y. Mik]
