South Australia has officially closed up shop.
The State Gov Boffins have sold all power generators & now rely on sucking the life out of NSW & Victorian power stations.
All power has been switched off, or broken down, and no word on exactly how long it'll be before we see light again.
There are two main interconnectors........ one through Mildura & the other through Mount Gambier so how can both fail at the same time?
They are blaming the storm but it failed before it got half way across the state.
Dot do you have icecream in your fridge?
Who turned the lights out?

No, the marina looks so dark without any street lights or pedestal lights.
Grand daughter in Mount Gambier confirmed it as well as on the new.
Still expecting ferocious winds through the night although quite OK at present here.
