Well i rang ergon this morning aand told them the lines were down caught up in flood debris across my creek crossing..

Within the hour they cut the power and a crew arrived with a cherry picker..by the time I cleared the vegetation we were back in business...stil need to hand move about 10 tonne or so of silt and flood debris on the actual driveway next to the creek but I can at least get over it and out for now...

Spent a while clearing out sprinklers and the filter on my 2 inch mainline and then of course the filter body cracked and I had to run to town for a new one..but all done and water is good again..very nice to drink as well..it was getting a bit of an aftertatse before the rain from the tannins in the water...

Thats bad luck SM but mate you just need to chuck an egg in the radiator and refill...never done it but they say its good stuff as long as its the radiator and not the not the hose and of course if you have a spare egg lying around in the car.......probably RACQ is easier though...LOL

Hope you guys have been able to get out and get a bit of cleanup done...and I hope ergon has had time to get out to your place Tropo ..though after a blow we are usually one of the last to get hooked back up as we are the only ones on this little spur line...

How weird was that isolated rainfall yesterday up by you Daintree mob..that would have been just like an extra little kick in the guts that nobody needed..
