I had no power today
 

The heat here in melbourne today has been extreme. It reched over 40 degrees.

The entire estate that i live in lost the power for over 6 hours.

Meaning no air con, so went to the movies instead and saw "the holiday" great movie.

i told you not to plug that vibrator into the generator ... it was too powerful!!!

;p

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

your being to naughty, just wait until i get to bris vegas :winkwink:

As i have said to you before you outsourced bot, dont come into my threads if you dont like me.:thumbsup

40 degrees ?! :Oh crap I wouldn't stand such temperatures...

power outage was due to the fires at benalla , i live about 50'k away from benalla , my power flickered off for about a second then came back on
you might be asking what the hell does bushfires out benalla have to do with power down melbourne ? simple , the feed line supply vic with excess power from nsw got cut , so melb wasnb't getting supplied with enough juice

Yeah i heard that on the radio :thumbsup

funny how it happens on the hottest day though..

damn, i'm freezing here...

Melbourne are a bunch of pussies anyway, one hot day and they start sooking :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh , im about 80km from Benalla

I thought Melbourne was cooler than most of Oz. Hot damn glad I'm not in that kind of heat!

It normally is lol.

You went to the cinema because it is colder there?

Yes as i had no power.

40 degrees is something unbelievable. It is 30 here and i feel i can faint on the street.

No power for six hours? That's sad. How was Jack Black in The Holiday? :D

You mean 40C not F right?

40 degrees Celsius = 104 degrees Fahrenheit
australia is in Celsius , summer over here , so wouldn't be 40F which is 4 degrees Celsius

It was a very nice movie, i would not go and see it again, but it was good.

It went for 2 and a half hours lol

everyone using air conditioning/fans on the coldest temperature at once increases power consumption and therefore causes failures ;-)

always happens on the hottest days of summer.

Use ups,it come's handy in situations like this one.

nah power would've been right , but due to a bushfire taking down a twin powerline feedline that comes from New south wales suppling victoria with 330 kiloVolts
it wasn't that of not enough juice , there was an inability to transport it

you are so lucky:) come in Finland here is so cold:)

Or in St.Petersburg - very near.

ROFL :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

batts, hope you've cooled off by now. ;)

enjoy the heat! :)

I'm fucking freezing here!

freezing here too , it's only 21°C at the moment ,

i hope you are joking about that. get below -10 or 20 and then you can complain about it being cold

Sorry to hear that buddy, but glad you had fun:thumbsup

batts we get 110-114F here in valley very often in the summers

Same here... used to live where the temperature used be at 45-50c on a average. 40c used to mean its time to get out and play a few hours of tennis ;)

But now its so cold where I currently am.

I would much rather it be hotter than cold. I am freezing here in New England...

That's too bad. All is better now, I suppose?

damn straight, here in Canada even worse
