............................................... You can guess who the two flats without power? Yup! Us. Downstairs and me, upstairs. After both of us, my neighbour and I, repeatedly phoned National Grid a couple of engineers arrived at 11.45pm. They first checked the sub station. All ok there. But no power from the street into downstairs. That's where my power comes in as well.

1am and another van arrives with two more engineers. Now they need one of the cars taken off of the hard standing, neither being mine. So Hayley, my neighbour, moves her partners car off and parks up in the road. ((Her other half is away on a course)).

2.30am and a third van arrives towing a generator, which is now parked on the hard standing, and both wheels are clamped. Connected the cables up to the power supply downstairs and hey! Presto! We have power.
Well at least all the stuff in the freezer was saved. Just now have to re-set the clock on the cooker.

If you are on a genny, its pointless setting any clocks - they will need resetting when they put you back on mains supply..

Would love to post pictures but the lap top refuses to post them on here. Been like that since the forum had some downtime before Xmas. As for the cooker clock you need a PHD in science to figure it out.

There must be a big trend in electric cars in your street Bob.

All your neighbours plugged in there EV's all at the same time and used up everyone's power. lol
