2XX: 'May not be the end of civilisation: the libs were forced to win the election on policy, as Mr Keating said in his concession speech.

The photo upload was going okay, and then the circuit breaker went our the part of the Tally Room and the power went off. We were using the mains powered modem and lost the link. :-(
