Great start to the day ...
At the moment I am doing a job which involves working at two workstations at opposite ends of the factory alternately.I have spent most of the day clutching the PCB I am working on in one hand and waist of my trousers in the other.
Not a fun experience Oggy

Woke at some point in the night to realise I had no electricity - couldn't see my clock
Woke again at 6am - still no power - but neighbours had and the street lights were one
Got dressed and came downstairs - found a torch or two and checked the Trip Switches - all OK
Scratched head , went to make coffee [ thank goodness for a gas cooker ] but couldn't . Lighter on the cooker is - you've guessed it - electric piezo
FOund the gas lighter I had laid in for emergency use - but couldn't make it work so no coffee
Phoned Scottish Power , by now it's 6.30 !! Nice helpful guy listened to what I'd done and seen so as engineers report in at 7 he booked a call between 7 and 10 for me.
7.15 phone call - engineer on his way. 7.30 Engineer arrived - oh it was blowing a young gale and the rain was coming down , thick and fast . Poor guy was wrapped up in so many layers that he looked like the Michelin Man. Took him through to where the meters are - he agreed everything looked OK
BUT
then suddenly spotted that the main fuse was out !!
We are still trying to work out how that happened !!
Now had coffee - rain has stopped , there's even a wee bittie of sun
Much happier bunny

My daughter sends me an e-mail to remind me when the grandchildrens' birthdays are - it arrives 7 days before the big day - so as soon as it arrives I can then deal with it , and the birthday tribute arrives on or before the actual date .
If she didn't do that I'd never remember
