We have been without electricity today and many are still in darkness... streets are black as your hat

so must just be mad !!!!!!!

like one of the adverts on the tv the day the power went out

are any of the street/road signs lit up???

is the power back on???

one side of the street is and one side isnt here... so while we are in our warm homes you can see the neighbours all huddling round the candle... one guy has a birthday candle by the looks of it. :D
