Yes the lights all went out in Wolverhampton
somethings telling me I must pay the bills!



Wolvie is trying to slit his wrists with a torch
he has had to endure 45 mins with Me talking!!
We varied the subject though
Family history in the BC area..
how Robbie is getting a bit slow with Family history...
Family research in the midlands
and how important it is to verify your sources!

One minute I was posting look ups for Kaye...even though she gets it wrong and goes and does look ups
that have already been done
what can I do with these people!

the next min all the lights went out


So I thought I know I will start a thread...as you do

So if the lights went out in your house for a few hours
are you prepared
and would you welcome that time with your loved ones or would you have to be with your hubby or wife?

We had a power cut last year but we were well prepared not!!
Couldn't find a torch and when i finally did the batteries were dead and then i couldnt any new ones!! Candles? Couldn't find any matches!! Never again will we be unprepared.We have a special box with a torch and matches and candles in it and a game of scrabble and trivial pursuit.I always win,well i would wouldn't i because of my general knowledge and my english language and literature skills!!

Yes I can imaging you were a top boy scout well prepared and all toggled up!

What an evening that would be
no Tv but an eve of Triv with Rob
joy!!



We are so spoilt aren't we with our heating, and lights and Tv etc etc

We have the power go off quite frequently. I was always getting caught with flat batteries in the torch, so I went to the $2 shop and bought a Chinese-made wind-up torch. It works brilliantly and the chinglish instructions on the packet informed me that "the using of this torch will promote health and exercise and increase the brain power"

I am well prepared a large torch that does not need a battery and also some candles , fire and cooker gas so we are ok for heating and cooking, use PC till the battery runs flat then read.
