Has Wellie CBD run out of power?

Just heard that there's a power outage for the CBD... Oh dear...

Powerless computers can't log-on to KB ;-)

hehe, I finished work at 3 and went home to Lower Hutt so I haven't experienced any power cuts!

Apparently most of the CBD is without power. A couple of friends got sent home from work a while ago because of it. Some places still have it though. Good luck for anyone having to catch a train home!! Traffic is looking pretty slow out there towards town, lack of lights I imagine

Had a nice walk home and when I got there the power was on

they shud hook up gas pipes to the Mps mouths, then the entire planet could run on an endless renewable supply of methane.

I don't know how I survived. Was fun walking back up to the top of the State Tower!

There was quite a bit of panic on the floor when I got up there. Luckily as a trained Civil Defence person, I knew what to say..... "Fuck the lot of you. You chose to work up here, you knew the risks"
