Power back on!!

Yes, from about 4pm today afterd the Ergon guys working along our beachfront today - so much sand had come up that the caterpillar bulldozer thing had to pull the trucks along!!
Power off for 9 days, but could have been worse, as had solar hot water and gas hotplate.
Still, will be great to use all those things you take for granted .... havent used a hairdryer for 9 days, and look a scary sight!! the Ergon guys spotted me on veranda and jumped. Nice to watch the TV tonight (did buy a USB digital aeriel 2 days ago which worked well until my laptop ran outa power), cook my frozen meal in microwave (yeah, well), use the internet, sleep in aircon and just use a fan.
The plusses have been spending more time relaxing on front veranda in late arvo, with bful sea breeze, having a coldie, reading and listening to music, instread of stuck watching the box, or at computor.
Time for another beer, and back out to veranda.
