Yesterday was a very quiet day as for most of the time we were without electricity. Several times it flicked on and then off again. When it eventually came back at around 7-00pm it was hard to trust it. We rely so much on power – food for thought when one considers all the places in the world where the reliability we come to take for granted is only a dream.
Thanks to all the engineers who climbed up poles in the gales. It is nice to be warm again.
The recent power cuts on Seil reminded me of one perticular night, Boxing day 1998. Boy, was I ever glad to be in a manse – no shortage of candles!
Thank you for everything. You made a difference and will always be special.
