Storm Damage

I got an email from a friend overnight who had some storm damage on Saturday. He lives at Berowra somewhere, and had three direct hits on the house, and lost about an inch off the top of his lightning rod. He had very little in his house killed by the lightning, but it certainly did do some damage at his house.

On the December 19th when I was in Baulkham Hills, a bad storm hit then too. But it was worse here in Ingleburn. The photos below are of a house that got a new roof as a result of the storms. The roof came from one of the shops in Ingleburn, probably about 50m away. These photos were taken the next day on my phone, so the picture quality is not great. They were taken a few doors down from both Craig Knowles and Mark Latham’s electoral offices.

Yesterday’s Work

Waiting to fall asleep last night, I was thinking about the circuit I had designed. I know I should have been thinking about something other than work, but it did make me fall asleep quickly. Anyway, I was reviewing the design in my head and actually found a problem with it. I am thankful that issue will be easy to fix, just requiring that some more connections are made to the circuit. It is better to know know than once the board has been built.
