Its the youngest daughters birthday tomorrow so we are frantically baking and cooking all the food required for the party tomorrow. Fingers crossed the power stays on at least for another few hours till everything is done.

I thinks 8.15pm :eek:
There will be no power outage tonight, I can assure you of that.

Not that I'm at all pessimistic, but we've had our tea early, the "hotties" are in the bed, the emergency torch is on the kitchen table and the flasks are full! Why, whenever there is a power-cut, am I desperate for a cup of tea? Good luck everybody!
any one elses sky tv not working

:eek: Imagine if the lekky goes out, you'll have no idea where the spider is, could be in your bed or anything. :eek:
Power's out in Reay, now, apparently.
got the candles organised and hunted for a lighter just in case. cant find the torch thou will turn up eventually.

Power will go when the shilling runs out and you've not got another one.

Well, I tempted fate with my last post, 5 minutes later I had a power cut for the last 3.5 hours, :lol:
I said 1820 hrs and it was 1800 hours, do I win the sweep?
My electricity hasn't gone out yet. I win!
I thought the post saying that the power was out in Reay must be true when you disappeared off our screens. Welcome back.
Mine hasn't gone out either yet but it's flickering enough. :)
