The above images were taken 3 days after the flood peak. One week later patches of dry concrete appear on the shed floor. On
the 12th Feb, I carefully reapply power to the shack. I have an
earth leakage breaker. Eventually I disconnected enough stuff and it
stopped tripping. In the aftermath, I am fortuneate that most of
the good stuff was out of reach. Mostly only junk was submerged
and most of that has commenced its journey to landfill. The C13
did get waterlogged. It might yet survive, it was immediately
dosed with a can full of sillicone spray and blow dried in the hot sun.
It might yet live.
