Blackout

A huge area of Lancaster just blacked out includin the university and the town centre. Apparently the trains came to a halt.

Lasted about 20-30 minutes. Anyone got any idea why?

I had to eat my cold tea in the dark, after i'd spent a good ten minutes thinking a fuse had one in the house lol.

I'll make an educated guess. Power cut.

1. some streets and buildings still had power
2. power cut was obvious
3. I was after the REASON for the power cut
