‘Tis the season!

Round about this time of year when the nights are drawing in and the weather has a real nip in the air my area is hugely plagued with power cuts. I think that power cuts – that is to say ‘real’ power cuts – are great fun. You eat dinner by candlelight, maybe play a board game or something and go and get into a freezing bed with no light spilling from anywhere. That, to me, is really good fun.

Then you get the other type of power cut. The type that knocks the power off for about two seconds, which is more than enough to reset everything in your house. So it was I woke up at 5:00 this morning and thought ‘brilliant, another hour of lovely, lovely sleep’ when it was actually time for me to haul myself from bed.

And this is just the start, normally they end when winter does. So that’s about what? February?

In other news; well done to Mr. Obama (down at the copa, copa-obama...) and this pillock’s legally changed his name to Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Spiderman Batman Wolverine Hulk And The Flash Combined. What a great life he'll lead.
