They drove over in the morning and brought a portable barbecue. Power was still out and so was the water. Our outside tap was working so we were able to have a cup of tea.
Amazingly our house appears to have come through unscathed. A few vases and glasses had fallen from shelves but only an empty bottle and a couple of light bulbs were broken. We will have to get the chimney checked at some point but it looks fine.
After breakfast, we all went for a walk around the neighbourhood to see how things were. It was a lovely warm, sunny, spring morning. It was very surreal after the events of the night before.
