Not thats it's a reliable source but 7 News is reporting that the tower has been evacuated due to "a computer fire and fumes". Apparently runways are closed with aircraft queuing up on the taxiways. Feel for you guys!

Would have been easier on the ground controller if everyone had just kept quiet after they'd asked for pushback , and were in the queue , rather than calling every 5 min restating they were ready to go.
Pointless and jammed the frequency. Once you were in the queue, let him do his job!
And he did a great job at that! Well done to the SMC chap !
