Had a rather enjoyable, peaceful day. We've had no electricity from 8.31am until 3.45pm - a pre-arranged power cut for sub station renewal.
No TV, no kettles boiling, no broadband, no emails. We went out at lunchtime for a fish and chip lunch - sat in a car park watching the North Sea and a few 'windmills whilst eating it (still a bit fresh to be sitting on the beach!).
Once we got power back, Virgin Media had problems - so no broadband or TV for another 3/4 of an hour.
Off to the grandaughter's 6th birthday do now - and then off to the Club for a few games of snooker and a drop or two of apple juice
