You all high and dry-ish but safe???

Yeah all good here. Putting a bullbar on the new Triton. Wrote the old one off a couple of weeks ago when I cleaned up a stag about a k from my front gate. Popped both airbags. There's $10 grand right there just replacing the airbags. The floodings real good. Kinda like the coved lock down. Frig all people out our way. I can still get into Heyfield from where I am to get beer. Very important. Other than that, I'm lovin' it.

Currently have power out (since about 1600hrs) until an estimated 0100hrs 3 Jan 24.
Had somewhat of a dump on us here near Heathcote in Central Vic. Just short of 100mm in about 45 mins.
We had just arrived home from being up in Rutherglen at the BILs place. Unpacked, and made a cuppa and it all went pear shape. Bright flashes bangs of thunder and the heavens opened up.

Bit wet in the Dandenongs.
Never seen birdsland reserve this wet and flowing hard
Some roads around us closed with police tape but not mentioned anywhere.
