  • A few years ago the village I live in was plagued with power cuts of varying length, including one on Christmas day. The gas central heating would not work and those with electric cookers had a cold Christmas dinner. Fortunately we have a solid fuel range so had a hot Christmas dinner. 


    When laying a new water supply to my house the digger driver ripped the gas supply to my neighbour out, it was T'd off the supply running down my drive. They could not fix the supply until my neighbour returned in the evening and they could get access to the house to purge the gas appliances.
