Where librarians sleep during natural disasters!


Hi all

Well the warning is now over. The wave was thankufully not too big, about 50cm here. Did not stop the panic and fear though after last year. Am watching what is going on in NZ also.

We have discovered the library is quite a comfortable place to hang out during a disaster. I have couches that can fold down so we managed a bit of sleep!! Had chucked a bit of food into the chilly bin on the way out the door so had the Accountnat and her partner in for toast and tea for breakfast. Managed to tune in the radio on the mobile and also practice with the dynamo wind up radio we bought from Kathmandu for these purposes. Adam was glued to the computer screen monitoring reports and news stories.

Time to head home now and round up the dogs. Phew that one is over. Boy we have had some natural disasters around this place lately!
