Great service mate.
The only bit that worried me (apart from when you tried to convince us that some people are actually older than you
) was the bit above about the phone.
Your landline will work in a power cut as the whole phone network is run off battery backed up supplies.
If you have a mains powered phone like a cordless you really should have a corded phone as well as backup. Cordless phones always come with a warning that they are not for emergency calls as they don't work in a power cut. I would not rely on your mobile in a power cut in case the local mobile phone masts go down as well. Many are battery backed up but they wont last several hours.
