wednesday

kezia went to school but it was closed because of powercuts so she came home and did some homework and popped out to the mall with some friends in the afternoon

jane had school (sports day was cancelled) and i had work (new computer and new giant monitor yay!)

much of the morning was spent with people telling each other stories of sleepless nights in the storm.

i forgot to mention that Esther was working at the Bruce Mason centre for the show Mama Mia on Tuesday night.  She got a taxi back to halls after as per the staff policy which meant she had to go over the harbour bridge in the storm.  her taxi driver said it was his worst experience in 12 years of taxiing!

After last night’s winds we’re promised more tonight, although not quite as bad apparently: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=12030156
