Last night ended up having a power cut at 11.30pm, all the lights were out on the road and the bypass's as well. I know some of Baxenden was out as well. Computer went off with a big bang and total darkness. Anyway got the torch and found the candles and lit them. Leccy came back on just after 1am. Had to go round then putting all the clocks right etc

Anyway who is ready for a power cut when its like that so sudden. Do you know where your torch is, do you have candles or a lantern etc. Do you have a radio with batteries in?

I know i dont - listened to radio lancs on my mobile - best was it was the twilight zone - who wants to listen to that when you are in candlelight? Twas spooky enough without listening to that!!!
