Power has been out since around 15:00 Friday.
At 18:00 today I got this text.
"We are very sorry for the ongoing power cut. We are still determining the full extent of damage to our network and due to the ferocity of Storm Eunice, this is not an easy task. To help you plan ahead, we're keen to provide you with a realistic expectation of what's to come. We expect to reconnect a large number of customers throughout the course of this evening, with the vast majority of customers being restored by the end of the weekend. We are however expecting some affected customers, particularly in rural areas or where complex repairs are required, to remain without power into early next week. This means, it's possible that your power will remain off until early next week. We are really sorry.... Blah blah blah"
Ugh.
Thankfully I have an open fireplace, loads of logs, a camping stove and plenty of gas, USB power banks, and candles, wind up torches, canned food and even some MREs (for easy food at festivals).
Tomorrow I'll pull the diesel genny out of the barn.
Supposed to be playing tomorrow, with my new DMR, but considering the forecast for the area is 20mph winds gusting to 40+ going seems pointless.
Oh well!
How about you lot, everyone doing okay in this?
