CaptainS Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Here at the pointy end - power off 12 -ish. Power back - 10 minutes ago. 11 hour power cut and loads of coconuts and branches down. Bangrak was a bit of a mess today. Here it was off for about 90 minutes in the afternoon, then back for one hour and then off for another hour at least. Your 11 hours are really bad.

samuijimmy Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Dare I say ..... not even had a flicker in my area of Maenam..... for months.... (I probably just jinks that ) But preventive maintenance along some of the power lines would go a long way to preventing problems... in many areas! Oddly my power come from the main road underground, (100 mts or so, I guess that helps during the windy periods... at least most of the new lines on ring road are fairly free of trees, to bugger things up! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I was in the same car anyway. Back on topic, got to give them credit, once the truck was towed out, they got the old posts out, put new ones in power up & running by 6 ish. Another good thing is , they respected the fiber optic lines, not damaged & up and running great. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Five explosions last night around 10.30 pm - the first one and all the lights went out (off the main road in Mae Nam - up the hill in the direction of Kirikayan, Soi 1) One of the bangs was BIG.. Dunno what time they came on again because I went out to watch footie - and the lights were on everywhere else in Mae Nam . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higgins Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) Had quite a few hours of this in bangrak today. All I wanted was butter from the shop to go on my toast.... (no have... electric close) .... but i survived, despite the odds, and reminded myself that life is not so bad really Took a siesta after lunch (eggs on dry toast (bread... no electric)) on the very cool tiled floor.... just like the old days. Very nice. Edited October 8, 2014 by Higgins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuijimmy Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 ^ you should not have sleep in so late Higgins! My water delivery guys were not able to fill their bottles... so were not able to deliver bottle water... Imagine the same for others...with the electric off .... so they may be a day or two behind now! I did get a few things done, that have been on the "to do" list and often side tracked by tele or computer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
