Back to bed to keep warm I think!

Awful isn’t it?! I was half expecting it when the lights started flickering earlier, I should have made a flask up then

Sounds like a plan. I’m not far from Preston and thankfully our power is still on, but the roads are all flooded instead

I can deal with most things that need power when there isn’t any, but seriously, don’t ever come between me and my coffee

As long as there's charge in your phone at least you won't get bored! Hope the power is restored soon and that you're not one of those unfortunate enough to be affected more severely by the floods.

Thank you, and no, we’re fortunate that we don’t flood here

I reported it and it’s due to damage to an underground cable. We don’t have gas but at least I’ll have d*unk more water today, which I’m really bad at normally!
