I talked to him a bit earlier. BLACKouts all over the place...

I heard everything was going sideways, and the whole thing fell out of the sky in a few minutes...!!!

Hope Mark and other Mudgee residents are fine and didn't sustain any major damage.

Another Hope everything is Ok with all in Mudgee..

Thanks for the thoughts.
Hopefully farmmax is okay.
It was all a bit wild for 5 minutes.
Thankfully there were no major injuries to people. There was major damage to nature. So many trees that are generations old are now not. Sad.
At our place, well we basically got smashed.
Reckon by the time the trees are assess we will have lost half of our mature trees.
Limited damage to the house. I'd rather damage to the house and all trees left standing to be honest.
Been busy doing stuff so have only PPed 4 photos.
The branch in the first is where the aviary was with the wire facing my way. Yep, picked up and turned around. One of the two cockatiels was still in there. I found the lady totally dazed and confused on our driveway this morning.

Looks like the aftermath of a cyclone. Glad you are okay and your cockatiels also. Pity about the trees. Hopefully farmmax is fine and all her animals also. Looks like Jayne's work car was lucky to escape major damage.

Sad to see, Mark. Glad you're ok.

Oh dear! Glad you are ok and your cocktails. Lot of cleaning up though. Stay safe.

Glad to read no one hurt, though sad about the Bird and the Trees/Garden

The Mudgee Tip has been like Pitt St Sydney these few days - No,
I said to one complete stranger, "So what brings you out here today?"
He had a good laugh and we chatted like ole mates while we unloaded
our "loathes" of debris. Didn't know each other from bars of soap
